Troubleshooting TruPort

If you are having trouble with TruPort, ask the following questions: 

1. Can you see the EasyServer from easyadm?  
If no, then it is likely that the EasyServer is not properly connected to the network. Check the physical connection. 

2. Can you communicate with the EasyServer? 
Ping the EasyServer. If you are unable to ping it, refer to the Troubleshooting EasyServer II section following. 

If you can ping the EasyServer, ask the following questions: 

  • Can the EasyServer be seen in Easyadm? 
  • If no, contact Stallion Support (see inside cover). 
  • If yes, check whether the ports can be configured. 

Troubleshooting EasyServer II

If you are having trouble setting up the EasyServer II, follow the procedure listed below: 

Step 1.  HTTP service.  
Using a web browser, specify the Server's IP address. 
For example: 
http://123.456.789.1 or http://hostname. Your Server's Home Page is displayed. 

Step 2.  Internet Access. 
Check whether you have internet access from the browser. This will enable you to send a diagnostic report directly to your Service Representative. If you do not have internet access, contact your Support Representative. 

Step 3.  Run Diagnostics. 
Go to the front page of your Server setup web page and select `Diags'

The Server Diagnostics screen is displayed with the diagnostic options listed below. At the very least before contacting your support representative, find out the name of another `host' on your network from your network administrator, and perform the `Ping' test in which you send a message to the nominated host and see whether you receive a reply. This determines whether the LantraServer is correctly connected to the network. 

Step 4.  Ping
Select the host to be pinged by entering its name in the dialogue box, and press `Enter'

Step 5.   Server Counter.  
The server counter diagnostic displays a variety of information about data traffic, network errors and serial lines. 

Step 6.  Port Counters
Port counters check the functionality of connected ports, and indicated errors where they occur. 

Step 7.  Telnet Listener Status.  
The telnet listener status test can be used to determine whether the telnet listener is active. 

Step 8.  Internet Counters.  
The internet counters test checks the various aspects of the transmission of TCP segments, IP packets and ICMP messages, as shown below: 

Step 9.  Loopback Tests
Loopback tests check the functionality of ports with a loopback connector attached (part no. CO-LBRJ-UNI). 

Step 10.  Getting Support. 
If problems persist, use the `Support' option on the `Diags' main screen. Follow the instructions to either contact the dealer/distributor from whom you received the LantraServer, or if unavailable, Stallion Technologies. 

Step 11.  Generate Diagnostic Information  
Genrate the diagnostic information which will help Support to identify the problem(s) and determine the solution(s). The diagnostic page is a comprehensive listing of your server's current configuration. It also includes the results of a number of diagnostic tests already discussed above. 

Step 12.  Email or fax. 
Email or fax your dealer/distributor or Stallion (e-mail: support@stallion.com or support@stallion.oz.au). If e-mail is unavailable, print diagnostic page from your browser and FAX it to your dealer or one of the Stallion offices listed on the contact page.
