Troubleshooting Functional Failures in Operation
58
communication to the other party cannot be verified with the ping command, use ping to check communication 
toward clients starting from the system closest to this system. For an example of issuing ping and how to interpret 
the result, see the manual "Configuration Settings."
3. If the server and the client are directly connected, check the HUB and cable connections.
4. Depending on the extent of failure detected by the ping command, that is the neighboring system or remote system, 
proceed to the next step in the failure analysis flow.
(d) Checking route information
Check the route information acquired by this system if communication is not possible even when the address resolution 
with the neighboring system is achieved, or if communication is disabled in the midway to the other party, or if the 
route to the other party is abnormal. Use the following procedure:
1. Log in to the system.
2. Execute the show ip route command to check the route information acquired by this system.
(e) Checking filtering/QoS setting information
Only certain packets may have been discarded by filtering, or packets may have been discarded through bandwidth 
monitoring, discarding control, or shaper of the QoS control.
Check to see if the conditions of filtering and QoS control in the configuration have been set up correctly and if 
bandwidth monitoring, discarding control, or shaper has been set up appropriately for system operation in system 
configuration, on this system and on the relay equipment located between the client and server. For the procedure, see 
"
."
(f)
Checking layer 2 network
If no setting error or failure is found in steps (a) to (e), the layer 2 network may have problem. Check the layer 2 
network, referring to "
"
3.6.3
DynamicDNS Cooperation in DHCP Function Is Disabled
(1) DHCP server communication trouble
Following are three possible causes for DHCP server communication failures.
1. Configuration error
2. Network configuration has changed
3. DHCP server failure
First, check 1 above. This section describes configurations that are easily misconfigured. For 2 above, check for the 
differences in the network configuration provided before and after the change. Check for any difference disabling 
communication. If the DNS server/DHCP server settings (network card setting, cable connection, etc.) have been 
confirmed to be normal, and if the configuration and network configuration are correct but IP communications are 
unavailable because IP addresses cannot be assigned to clients, as described in 3 above, see "
" for details.
To locate the failed part and cause, follow the flow below.
