Symptom
Failure to access a slave device
Probable cause
•
One of the following issues occurs on the master device:
▪
Network connection is lost.
▪
Power is lost.
▪
The Ethernet or wireless interface is disabled.
•
One of the following issues occurs on the slave device in
question or any upstream device (if available):
▪
Connection of the cascading cable is loose or lost.
▪
No power supply.
▪
The cascading mode is set incorrectly.
For example, the master device is set to Bridging, but the
slave device in question or any upstream device is set to
Port Forwarding.
•
In the Bridging mode, IPv4 (or IPv6) settings are disabled on
the slave device in question.
•
In the Port Forwarding mode, one of the following issues
occurs:
▪
The master device's role is incorrectly set to 'Slave'.
▪
The master device's downstream interface is incorrectly
set. For example, you use a USB cable to connect the 1st
slave device, but select the Ethernet port as the
downstream interface.
▪
The role of the slave device in question or any upstream
device is set to 'Master' instead of 'Slave'.
▪
The port number you added to the IP address is incorrect.
See
Port Number Syntax
▪
IPv4 (or IPv6) settings are disabled on the master device.
•
The slave device in question or any upstream device is a
Raritan product that runs a "pre-3.3.10" firmware version
while the rest of the chain runs firmware version 3.3.10 or
later.
