• If the system software is unable to start up, this LED turns red.
If the LED is red, connect a console to the management port and use the
show environment
command
to check for possible problems.
• The MANAGEMENT LED turns green when the module is operational (online) and a link is established
with another network device. If no signal is detected, the LED turns off.
• If there is a problem with the supervisor module, try reseating the supervisor module in the chassis and
restarting the switch. For more troubleshooting information, see the “Troubleshooting Supervisor Modules”
section.
• Verify that the STATUS LEDs on each switching module is green when the supervisor module completes
initialization.
This LED indicates that the supervisor module and switching modules are receiving power, have been
recognized by the supervisor module, and contain a valid Flash code version. However, this LED does
not indicate the state of the individual interfaces on the switching modules. If a STATUS LED is red,
try reseating the switching module or supervisor module and restarting the switch. For more information,
see the “Troubleshooting Switching Modules” section. If you determine that the switching module is not
operating, contact Cisco TAC as described in the “Some Problems and Solutions” section.
• If the boot information and system banner are not displayed, verify that the terminal is set for 9600 baud,
8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit and connected properly to the console port.
