Table 10-15 CIP: CIP Will Not Come Online to Host
CIP devices not online
to host
Step 1 Check the mainframe to see whether the CIP devices are online to the host.
Step 2 If the CIP devices are not online, vary them online. If devices do not come
online, see the section “CIP: CIP Will Not Come Online to Host” later in this
chapter.
Step 3 Check whether the TCP/IP device has been started.
Step 4 If the device has not been started, start it.
Note: It might be necessary to stop and start the TCP/IP application to start
the device. If you are using obey files, this might not be necessary.
Step 5 Check the configuration for the CIP in the TCP/IP profile on the host, and
check the router configuration for the CIP device.
Step 6 Use the moretrace claw command on the host, either from an obey file or in
the TCP/IP profile. This command traces the establishment of CLAW
connections and can provide information that is useful for determining causes
of connection problems.
Possible Problem Solution
Hardware problem
Step 1 Check to make sure that the router is plugged in and turned on.
Step 2 Use the show version exec command and see whether the CIP card appears in the
output.
Step 3 If the CIP card appears in the output, the Enabled LED might be faulty.
Step 4 If the CIP card does not appear in the output, reseat the CIP card, reboot the router,
and check the output of the show version command again.
Old Cisco IOS
release
Step 1 Use the show version exec command to find out what version of the Cisco IOS
software you are running.
Step 2 If you are using Cisco IOS software prior to Release 10.2(6), you should upgrade
to a more recent version.
