Are you sure it's a 16 Mbps MAU? Try setting the speed to 4 Mbps with the ring-speed command. If that doesn't work, try hardcoding it back to 16 Mbps.
Other than that, it's time for the "swap 'til you drop" troubleshooting methodology. Try a different: cable router interface MAU Do you hear a click after a few seconds when the interface tries to come up? That's the relay opening. If you don't hear it, then I would suspect bad hardware or hardware that's in a weird state. Years ago, Token Ring troubleshooters carried around a little reset tool, but I haven't seen one of those in years. The tool reset the port on MAUs. Mabye there's some other way to do that on your SMC MAU. Is there a reset button or anything? A couple years ago there was a discussion on Group Study regarding the same MAU, and the resolution I think was that the MAU was bad. _____________________ Priscilla Oppenheimer www.troubleshootingnetworks.com www.priscilla.com Juan Blanco wrote: > > Team, > Could any tell me what I am doing wrong....I am trying to bring > up my > token-ring interface up?
