Suggestions to Correct
•
Verify the configuration for the controller has DHCP enabled. By default, the
ports have DHCP enabled. Otherwise, refer to the CLI Reference Guide or
System Reference Guide for instructions on enabling the controller
interfaces.
•
Connect another host configured for DHCP and verify it is getting a DHCP
address
•
Enable DHCP for the port by using the CLI command or the Web UI to enable
DHCP on the port connected to your external network.
•
Verify that DHCP packets are being sent to the port using a sniffer tool
•
If DHCP packets are seen, check to ensure that the controller is not
configured for a static IP on the port.
Contact Brocade Support.
Suggestions to Correct
Verify Telnet or SSH are enabled by using the CLI or Web UI (By default, telnet is
disabled.)
Maximum allowed sessions is 8 concurrent users connected to a controller. Verify
the threshold has not been reached.
Verify Telnet and SSH traffic is allowed on the primary VLAN
