does not recover. When power is restored. it just has a flashing network light. Power and ACT are both out. Doing a power cycle from the switch seems to make it recover. The unit had been running since June 21st and Sunday the power went out. I cannot connect to the Console either, It appears to be non-responsive too. Where do I go from here?

To clarify: when you say that you cannot connect to the console, is that problem also fixed by power cycling via the on/off switch ? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options Yes, If I connect a Terminal to the Console Port, I do not get anything,
pressing return several times does not seem to do anything. Turning off the power switch, then turning it back on I am able to see the Bootup sequence, etc on the console. Thanks, Scott<- >>When we have a power failure our PIX 515 (see below for specs and

Hmmmm... the only thing that comes to mind right at the moment is that if you had a loose power cord connector, then the physical push on the on/off switch just might jiggle the connector into a better place. That's long odds, though, and that sort of daft problem is much more likely for a PIX 501. The only other thing that comes to mind at the moment is that when you powerfail, the power might come up very "dirty". Is the PIX 515 connected to any kind of power cleaner (e.g., power conditioner or UPS that is at least "single inversion"? (not cheapo UPS's -- those things put line power through untouched unless power is lost.) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options This has happened at its Prior Location and now its new home. Both on APC
SmartUPS backups. So I dont think it would be the Power Cord or the UPS. It does have power, well unless the Network light is like some of the other NIC lights that will be on even if the unit is off. Since I cant get the Connection working (Cant reach the Internet, but can reach the Remote side VPN) I'll pull the plug and see what happens.
