Basic Functions
After you turn on power to the VPN firewall, the following sequence of events should occur:
1. When power is first applied, verify that the PWR LED is on.
2. After approximately two minutes, verify that:
a. The Test LED is not lit.
b. The LAN port LINK/ACT LEDs are lit for any local ports that are connected.
c. The WAN port LINK/ACT LEDs are lit for any WAN ports that are connected.
If a port’s LINK/ACT LED is lit, a link has been established to the connected device. If a LAN
port is connected to a 1000 Mbps device, verify that the port’s SPEED LED is green. If the
port is 100 Mbps, the LED will be amber. If the port is 10 Mbps, the LED will be off.
If any of these conditions does not occur, refer to the appropriate following section.
