  1. Check MGMT ports LED on the NMU module and make sure the Ethernet cable is connected properly.
  2. Try another port on the NMU module and make sure the Ethernet cable is suitable and works normally.
  3. Power off the M Series chassis. After a while, power it on again.
  4. Make sure the IP address of your NMS server is correctly configured.
  5. If you still cannot access the configuration page, please reinitialize NMS server to its factory defaults.

Business Module Cannot Be Added

  1. Enter through CMD.
  2. Ping business module IP to check whether it can communicate.
