The system does not display the expected IP routing initialization messages.

Action:
1.

If you did not see the following IP message:

[IP] IP router is initialized successfully

Check the configuration to verify that IP routing is enabled.

2.

The failure to see the following IP message for each IP interface:

[IP] Network initialized successfully on ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd

indicates that you may have either not configured a needed interface or have incorrectly 
configured an interface. Check the system’s IP network interface configuration using the 

ipnetif

 command (a Manage Mode command). If there is a problem with the configuration, 

use the

Verify that the line is correctly attached to the proper system resource and port.

2.

If the line was correctly attached in action 1, try restarting the system.

3.

If actions 1 and 2 fail to correct the problem, call your phone company (carrier) to check the 
status of the line.
