Proxim Tsunami MP.11 and MP.11a CPN 65755B Manual De Usuario

If the MP.11/a takes a long time to become available, it could mean that: 

▪ 

No DHCP server is available.  

▪ 

The IP address of the MP.11/a is already in use. 

Verify that the IP address is assigned only to the MP.11/a.  Do this by switching off the MP.11/a and 
then pinging the IP address.   If there is a response to the ping, another device in the network is 
using the same IP address.  If the MP.11/a uses a static IP address, switching to DHCP mode could 
remedy this problem. Also see “Dynamic IP Address with DHCP” on page 21.   

▪ 

There is too much network traffic. 

If you cannot connect to the MP.11/a Web server through the network: 

1.  Connect a computer to the serial port of the MP.11/a and check the HTTP status.  The HTTP status 

can restrict HTTP access at different interfaces.   For more information, see “Serial Port” on page 
25.    

2. 

Open a command prompt window and enter:

 

ping <ip address MP.11> (for example ping 10.0.0.1) 

If the MP.11/a does not respond, ensure that you have the correct IP address.  If the MP.11/a 
responds, the Ethernet connection is working properly, continue with this procedure. 

3.  Ensure that you are using one of the following Web browsers: 

º  Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 or later (Version 6.0 or later recommended) 
º  Netscape version 6.0 or later 

4.  Ensure that you are not using a proxy server for the connection with your Web browser (with the CLI 

command show pelsessions). 

5. Ensure 

that 

you

 have not exceeded the maximum number of Web Interface sessions.
