Appendix F: Basic Troubleshooting<br />

Interpreting beep patterns<br />

At times, your <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> Security Appliance may emit a beep pattern. The<br />

beep pattern may repeat itself until the issue is addressed. This is the<br />

<strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong>’s way <strong>of</strong> communicating to you its status and what needs to<br />

happen next. Refer to this chart to interpret the various patterns and take the<br />

appropriate action.<br />

What you hear What it means What you should do<br />

TWO (2) short beeps<br />

(non-repeating)<br />

THREE (3) short beeps<br />

(non-repeating)<br />

FOUR (4) short beeps<br />

(repeating)<br />

FIVE (5) short beeps<br />

(repeating)<br />

<strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> successfully<br />

rebooted and is now passing<br />

traffic.<br />

<strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> is ready for its<br />

Quick Start information.<br />

There are non-content errors<br />

on Quick Start Wizard<br />

diskette.<br />

If you have already completed<br />

an initial configuration, this<br />

indicates an unlicensed<br />

<strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> running in safe<br />

mode.<br />

If the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong>’s license<br />

is already activated, this<br />

indicates a network failure.<br />

The <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> needs you<br />

to remove media from its<br />

drives.<br />

No action needed, the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> is<br />

operational.<br />

Configure the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> using one <strong>of</strong> the<br />

three methods described in “Selecting the best<br />

startup method” in the Startup <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />

Try again with a new Quick Start Wizard<br />

diskette.<br />

Do one <strong>of</strong> the following:<br />

• License the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> (see “Checking<br />

for license activation” in the Startup <strong>Guide</strong><br />

for details).<br />

• Attach a monitor and keyboard, wait for a<br />

pause between beeps, and then enter the<br />

following command: stop_beep<br />

Note: Using this command turns <strong>of</strong>f the beep<br />

pattern, but does not make your <strong>Sidewinder</strong><br />

<strong>G2</strong> fully operational. You must license your<br />

<strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> before it will pass and monitor<br />

traffic.<br />

Troubleshoot your network connectivity.<br />
