# Networking
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This page should help solving common network/related problems,
|
||||||
|
a-la `I can't connect, please help`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Common problems
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. `device_db.py` has misleading `core_addr` address.
|
||||||
|
2. PC and the crate are in different subnets. They should be in the same network. Also you may want to directly attach the Kasli to the PC.
|
||||||
|
3. Network restrictions/problems on your router, either by IP, MAC, protocols or anything else.
|
||||||
|
4. Wrong configuration of the Kasli. Change IP or MAC address to correspond your network. For ARTIQ-8, add
|
||||||
|
network mask to the `ip` setting on Kasli, like `192.168.1.75/24`.
|
||||||
|
5. Incompatible Ethernet cables/SFP RJ45. Try different cables and SFP adapters.
|
||||||
|
We usually test them with CAT6 cables, but lower categories should be supported too.
|
||||||
|
6. SFP or Ethernet are not pushed til the end.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Ways to diagnose
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. `ping` the device. If destination is unreachable, than it is either didn't connect to the network
|
||||||
|
or connected to different address. If the packets just do not respond then it is not as clear, we cannot know all the truth.
|
||||||
|
2. UART logs. TODO here is a link to ways to obtain them
|
||||||
|
3. `nmap` and `arp` to scan your network to help your Kasli get discovered. May be restricted in your network.
|
||||||
|
4. Become a router and capture all the packets when your Kasli tries to connect to the network.

# Software/Support
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In this section you'll find instructions, tips and hints mostly
|
||||||
|
regarding software. The main intend of this section is to ease the support
|
||||||
|
process, which often includes answering similar questions and solving similar problems.
|
||||||
|
In the future, it may be revised and added to the official ARTIQ manual.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I hope that helps!
