Troubleshooting If you have connected an Ultra 2 Series host to a hub using twisted-pair Ethernet cable and observe either “no carrier” messages or fail to communicate effectively with another host in the same network, look first at the hub. If it supports configurable link test, then make sure “link test enabled”...
Moves and Changes If the Ultra 2 Series host is physically moved to another network location or if the hub is reconfigured, remember to refer back to . Unless the new network FIGURE 2-2 relationship between the host and the hub is functional (that is, 1-1 link test enabled- link test enabled or 0-0 link test disabled-link test disabled), there will be no full, regular two-way communication between the host and the hub.
2. Boot the host and verify that the transceiver cable problem messages do not appear. Type either boot net or boot disk and press Return. Sun Ultra 2 Series Reference Manual • May 1996 Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com...
