Front Panel - Cisco ESW2 Series Quick Start Manual

Bad console port connection:
Check the console cable connectors to make sure they are firmly
plugged into the switch and your computer. Make sure the terminal
application is configured with the correct parameters.
Wrong IP address:
Make sure you are using the correct IP address for the switch. You can
determine the status of how the switch obtained the current IP address
by observing the system LED. You can determine the current IP
address of the switch through the console port interface by using the
CLI, or from your network administrator.
Make sure that no other device is using the same IP address as the
switch.
No IP route:
If the switch and your computer are in different IP subnets, you need
one or more routers to route the packets between the two subnets.
Unusually long access time:
Most connections will be available in a few seconds. Due to the
standard spanning tree loop detection logic, adding new connections
might take 30 to 60 seconds for the affected interfaces and/or LAN to
become operational.
