If cable and switch are working are you able to reach the Forti wlc 50D by IP address?

The Forti wlc 50D should come with a serial (rollover) cable that you can use to connect to the console port, though you may need to get your hands on a serial-to-USB adapter.  Using a laptop (or computer) connect to the console port and run (say) Putty. Powercycle the Forti wlc 50D and watch the console output for any errors.
