-
If the LED is on, a fiber link has been set up.
If the LED is off, no link has been set up. The reason might be wrong connection of the Tx and Rx ends. Connect the Tx and Rx ends at one end of the fiber again.
Installing a power supply

CAUTION:
Do not install an AC power supply and a DC power supply on the same device. The HP 870 cannot balance the output current between AC and DC power supplies installed in the same chassis, which causes one power supply to be in light-load status and one in heavy-load status. Should the heavy-load power supply fail or be removed, the remaining light-load power supply will immediately switch to heavy-load status and the output voltage will drop. This voltage drop may cause the device to reboot.
- Remove the filler panel (if any) from the slot where you want to install a power supply with a Phillips screwdriver.
Keep the remove filler panel for future use.
- Holding the handle of the power supply with one hand and supporting the bottom of the power supply with another hand, push the power supply into the slot along the guide rails until the power supply is completely inserted.
- Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the captive screws on the power supply.

No terminal display
If the configuration terminal displays nothing when the device is powered on, verify the following items:
• The power supply is supplying power to the device.
• The console cable is correctly connected.
• The terminal settings are correct.
Garbled terminal display
If terminal display is garbled, verify that the following settings are configured for the terminal, for example, HyperTerminal:
Baud rate—9600
- Data bits—8
- Parity—none
- Stop bits—1
- Flow control—none

Login password loss

CAUTION:
Dealing with console login password loss and user privilege level password loss from BootWare menus is disruptive.
How to deal with console login password loss and user privilege level password loss depends on the state of password recovery capability (see Figure 31). Password recovery capability controls console user access to the device configuration and SDRAM from BootWare menus.
- If password recovery capability is enabled, a console user can access the device configuration without authentication and configure new passwords.
- If password recovery capability is disabled, a console user must restore the factory-default configuration before configuring new passwords. Restoring the factory-default configuration deletes the main and backup next-startup configuration files.
To enhance system security, disable password recovery capability.

Dealing with user privilege level password loss
- Select 8 from the BootWare menu to clear the user privilege level password.
This operation takes effect at next reboot only. The user privilege level password is restored at a second reboot.
- Reboot the device and you can directly enter system view.
Software loading failure
If software loading fails, the system runs previous software version. To troubleshoot the software loading failure:
- Verify that the physical ports are correctly connected. If the cable of any port is not connected, re-connect the cable to the port, and make sure the physical connection is correct. Load the software again.
- Check for errors in the software loading process displayed on the HyperTerminal. If errors exist, correct them, and load the software again.
For example, the software loading failures might occur in the following situations:
- When you use XMODEM to load software, you select a baud rate other than 9600 bps, but you have not reset the baud rate for the HyperTerminal.
- When you use TFTP to load software, you entered an incorrect IP address, software name, or TFTP serve path.
- When you use FTP to load software, you entered an incorrect IP address, software name, username, or password.
If software loading has failed even if the physical connections are in good condition and the software loading process does not have any input errors, contact HP Support.
