Industrial Ethernet switches are important equipment in the network. If they have problems, they will affect the entire network system. The computers in the LAN are often connected to the switch equipment and exchange and process data through the equipment. In this way, the operating status of the switch will have a direct impact on the overall operating performance of the LAN network. However, in the process of actual network management, some detailed factors are often beyond our control. Network failures caused by some inconspicuous factors will also take a lot of effort to troubleshoot. Then, how should we eliminate them? What? Today, the editor of Feichang Technology will analyze the troubleshooting methods of common switch failures in detail for everyone, let's take a look!
1. Elimination method
When we face the failure phenomenon and analyze the problem, we have accidentally learned to use the elimination method to determine the direction of the failure. This method is to list all possible failures as comprehensively as possible based on the observed failure phenomena, and then analyze and eliminate them one by one. When eliminating, follow the principle from simple to complex to improve efficiency. Using this method can cope with a variety of failures, but maintenance personnel need to have strong logical thinking and a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of switch knowledge.
2. Comparison method The
so-called comparison method is to use the existing Ethernet switch of the same model and capable of normal operation as the reference object, and compare it with the faulty switch to find out the point of failure. This method is simple and effective, especially for system configuration failures. A simple comparison can be used to find out the differences in configuration, but sometimes it is not easy to find a switch with the same model and configuration.
3. Replacement method
Replacement method refers to the method of using normal Ethernet switch parts to replace the parts that may be faulty, so as to find the point of failure. It is mainly used for the diagnosis of hardware failures, but it should be noted that the replacement parts must be similar switches of the same brand and model.
