• At the time of writing, you can only manage Zyxel Nebula APs, Switches or Security Gateways through the NCC. See
NCC Overview.
• If your Nebula Device supports NebulaFlex or NebulaFlex Pro, make sure that the Nebula Device is working in Nebula cloud manage mode with NCC Discovery enabled.
• Make sure that your Nebula Device can connect to the NCC by checking your network’s firewall/security settings. The following ports must be allowed:
• TCP: 443, 4335 and 6667
• UDP: 123
Note: Go to Help > Firewall information to find the latest port information.
• Make sure that you have registered your Nebula Devices with the NCC. See
License & Inventory.
None of the Nebula Device LEDs turn on.
• Make sure that you have the power cord connected to the Nebula Device and plugged in to an appropriate power source. Make sure you have the Nebula Device turned on.
• Check all cable connections. See the related Quick Start Guide.
• If the LEDs still do not turn on, you may have a hardware problem. In this case, you should contact your local customer support.
The Nebula Device PWR LED is red.
• The Nebula Device has a power-related error. Disconnect and reconnect the power cord. Make sure that you are using the included power cord for the Nebula Device and it is plugged into an appropriate power source. See the related Quick Start Guide.
