  • 1.1 PrecautionsIf you are a maintenance engineer, read the following precautions before doing your work:l Confirm whether the fault is an emergency fault. If it is an emergency fault, recover the

    faulty module by using the pre-defined troubleshooting methods immediately, and thenrestore services.

    l Strictly conform to operation rules and industrial safety standards, ensuring human anddevice safety.

    l Wear the ESD wrist strap when touching device components.l Record original information about the problems occurring during troubleshooting.l Record all the operations you have performed, especially the key operations such as

    restarting device and clearing database. Before performing the key operations, confirm theoperation feasibility, back up data, and prepare the emergency and security measures. Onlyqualified personnel can perform key operations.

    NOTEAfter commands are configured to troubleshoot faults, pay attention to the configuration validation modeto ensure that the configurations take effect. Unless otherwise specified, this manual defaults to theimmediate validation mode.l In immediate validation mode, configurations take effect after commands are input and the Enter key

    is pressed.l In two-phase validation mode, after commands are configured, the commit command needs to be run

    to commit the configurations.Saving the results of each troubleshooting step is recommended. If your troubleshooting fails to correctthe fault, you will have a record of your actions to provide Huawei technical support personnel.

    1.2 Backing Up DataSome faults cause resource or money loss for customers. Therefore, maintenance engineersshould focus on preventing faults and quickly restoring faults. Data backup helps you quicklylocate and recover faults. After a network is set up and operates normally, you should back upimportant data as soon as possible.Important data includes:l Complete network topology, including device models, versions, and networking diagraml Configuration files and license filesl System software and patch filesl (Optional) Logsl (Optional) Feature library

    1.3 Troubleshooting ProcessSystematic troubleshooting is to find fault causes step by step, and finally recover the fault.Generally, troubleshooting steps include observing fault symptom, collecting information,analyzing problem, and finding the root cause. The possible causes of all faults can be groupedinto multiple cause sets, which make troubleshooting easier.

  • 2.1 Recovering the Console Port PasswordThree methods are provided to recover the console port password.l Method 1: Log in to the device using Telnet and change the console port password.l Method 2: Change the console port password through the BIOS menu.

    NOTE

    Method 1 is recommended. If you forget the Telnet password, use method 2.

    Logging In to the Device Using Telnet and Modifying the Console Port PasswordIf you can log in to the device using Telnet and your user right is level 3 or higher, log in to thedevice using Telnet, change the console port password, and save the configuration.1. Log in to the device using Telnet. Ensure that your user right is level 3 or higher.

    Run the display users command to display all the users that have logged into the device.The item with a "+" mark indicates your user account on user interface VTY1. display users User-Intf Delay Type Network Address AuthenStatus AuthorcmdFlag 34 VTY 0 00:06:53 TEL 10.135.18.67 pass yes Username : Unspecified

  • 4.1 Restoring the Default Settings Using the ConfigurationFile

    When the device is powered on, it reads the configuration file from the default directory forinitialization. Therefore, the configuration in the file is called the initial configuration. If noconfiguration file is stored in the default directory, the device uses the default parameters forinitialization. You must restart the device to make the recovered default settings take effect.1. Restore the configuration file using the FTP/TFTP server.

    For detailed operations, see Using FTP/TFTP to Transfer Files. Download the defaultconfiguration file to the device.

    2. Run the startup saved-configuration command to specify the default configuration filefor the next startup and restore the default settings. startup saved-configuration config.zip reboot fast

    NOTE

    When restoring the default settings, do not save the configuration. Otherwise, the device starts upusing the current configuration.

    4.2 Restarting the DeviceSome network faults will be rectified after you restart the device. This section describes how torestart a device.You can restart the device using any of the methods in the following table.

    Table 4-1 Device restart methodsMethod DescriptionTurn off and then turn on the power switch torestart the device.

    Cold restart is performed manually. In coldrestart, a device can be restarted only bypressing the power button, which haslimitations and is applicable to onsitemaintenance.Save the configurations in real time becausethe device will restart directly without savingthe current configuration.

    Run the reboot command in the user view torestart the device.

    Hot restart uses commands, which is adoptedby maintenance personnel who remotelymanages the device.In restart, the system asks whether to save theconfiguration, which effectively preventsconfiguration loss.

  • l The optical module type does not match the optical fiber type.l At least one of the two optical interfaces has been manually shut down.l The transmit power of the optical module is too low or too high.l The receive power of the optical module is too low or too high.

    Troubleshooting Procedure1. Check whether a Huawei certified optical module is installed on the optical interface. The

    CE series switches must use Huawei certified optical modules. Non-Huawei-certifiedoptical module cannot ensure service reliability and stability. If a non-Huawei-certifiedoptical module is used, replace it with a Huawei certified optical module.

    2. Check whether the optical module matches the optical fiber. If not, replace the optical fiberor optical module.l A single-mode optical module (generally with a center wavelength of 1310 nm or 1550

    nm) must work with a single-mode optical fiber (generally yellow).l A multimode optical module (generally with a center wavelength of 850 nm) must work

    with a multimode optical fiber (generally orange).3. Run the display interface transceiver command to check whether any alarm information

  • transmission distance of the optical module, check whether the optical module on theremote interface or the optical fiber is damaged. If they are damaged, replace them.

    l If RxPower High is displayed, the receive signal strength is too high. The possiblereason is that the distance between the two devices is short but a long-distance opticalmodule is used. In this case, install an optical attenuator on the optical module to reducethe transmit power.

    l If TxPower Low is displayed, the transmit signal strength on the local optical moduleis too low. This may cause a low receive power on the remote optical module. As aresult, the remote interface cannot turn Up or drops packets sent from the local interface.

    l If TxPower High is displayed, the transmit signal strength on the local optical moduleis too high. This may cause a high receive power on the remote optical module. If thehigh receives power lasts for a long time, the remote optical module will be burned.

    To ensure normal communication between two optical interfaces, check for transmit andreceive power alarms after the two interfaces have optical modules installed and connectedusing an optical fiber. Ensure that the transmit and receive power values of the two opticalmodules are in the normal range. Otherwise, traffic forwarding on the optical interfacesmay be abnormal or the optical modules may be damaged.

If no transmit and receive power alarms are displayed on the two ends but the two interfacesare still Down, collect detailed information and logs about the optical modules, and thenreplace the optical modules or optical fiber. If the interfaces can turn Up, the original opticalmodules or optical fiber has been damaged. If the interfaces are still Down, contact HuaweiTechnical Assistance Center.

  • Common Causesl The power cable is faulty.l Negotiation between the local and remote interfaces fails.

    Troubleshooting Procedure1. Check the cable status. Run the virtual-cable-test command in the interface view to check

    the cable status. If the cable status is displayed as Open or Short rather than OK, replacethe cable.

    2. Check configurations on the local and remote interfaces.l If the remote interface works in auto-negotiation mode, run the restart command in the

    local interface view to restart the interface.l If the remote interface works in non-auto negotiation and has a rate configured, run the

    speed { 10 | 100 | 1000 } or speed { 100 | 1000 | 10000 } command in the local interfaceview to configure the same rate as that of the remote interface.

  • l The optical module is incorrectly installed or the optical fiber fails.l Negotiation between the local and remote end fails.l The optical module fails.

    Troubleshooting Procedure1. Ensure that the type, rate (10GE or GE), and wavelength of the local and remote optical

    modules are the same. The remote optical module must transmit optical signals properly.2. Ensure that the local and remote optical modules have the same optical fiber transmission

    mode (single-mode or multimode) and use optical fibers of proper length.l If the transmission distance is long, the optical module must use an optical attenuator

    to prevent excessively high optical power.l If the transmission distance is short, use optical fibers of proper length.

    3. Run the display interface [ interface-type interface-number ] transceiver verbosecommand to check whether optical module information is correct.l If alarm messages are displayed, install the optical module correctly or replace the

    optical fiber. Then, run the restart command to restart the in
