Port LEDs and Modes
Each RJ-45 port and SFP module slot has a port LED. These port LEDs, as a group
or individually, display information about the switch and about the individual
ports. The port modes determine the type of information displayed through the
port LEDs.
Table 1-3
lists the mode LEDs and their associated port mode and
meaning.
To select or change a mode, press the Mode button until the desired mode is
highlighted. When you change port modes, the meanings of the port LED colors
also change.
Table 1-4
explains how to interpret the port LED colors in different
port modes.

(redundancy has been allocated to a neighboring device).
Amber
The RPS is in standby mode or in a fault condition. Press the Standby/Active button
on the RPS, and the LED should turn green. If it does not, the RPS fan could have
failed. Contact Cisco Systems.
Blinking amber
The internal power supply in a switch has failed, and the RPS is providing power
to the switch (redundancy has been allocated to this device).
