Run a Diagnostic Test
When the switch detects an issue, the Status field on the front panel view in the
Device Manager Web interface lists the detected issue. From the Diagnostic Test
dialog box, you can run switch and link diagnostic tests to help you resolve issues.
• The switch diagnostic test detects system and port issues on the switch. For
example:
– Power-on self-test (POST) error.
– Port-to-Smartports configuration mismatch.
– Duplex mode mismatch.
