PowerConnect 2724 manage led doesn't blink at startup.
Hi everybody,
I have a PowerConnect 2724, and it seems not to work. You can plug any device, and the lights of the port blink saying its linked, and recognize correctly if it is full or half duplex, and the connection speed.
But there's no traffic betwen the ports.
I think it's broken, because the led of manage mode doesn't blink at startup (nothing at all) and when I press the manage mode button nothing happens.
Can I check something more?
Thanks,
Paco.

if the switch is not passing traffic and it will not go into managed mode at all i would say call in to the tech support. Sounds broke to me.
Know it was not a very good explanation, but seems like you have:
Power cycled -- no managed light blinking
tried to put into managed mode-- will not go into managed mode
and no traffic flow to the ports.
One further step you may do is:
- disconnect everything from the switch
- power cycle it one more time
- try putting into managed mode for the last time
if it does not go then, you ahve ruled out everyting except for a defective switch as there is nothing externally preventing it from performing correctly
In my opinion, nothing else to try
