    If you upgrade from VN firmware 1.(mumble) to 1.5(mumble) or later
    you may need to do a "RESET TO FACTORY" defaults to get 'em to
    talk on the backplane VNbus.  The hub will show that they are connected
    but they are not - their connection LED on the front blinks.
    
    I think that it had something to do with earlier units having the
    VNBUS disabled in the VN CLI.
    
    SO...if you have  a VN module that you've upgraded that doesn't want
    to talk on a VNbus...try a good olde RESET TA FACTORY and it may 
    fix it.
    
    (Wouldn't it be nice if it didn't show the VNbus ligo when it
    was disabled...! )
