xStack DGS/DXS-3300 Series Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch User Manual

 

     

LED Indicators 

The Switch supports LED indicators for Power, Master, Console, RPS, SIO (stacking indicators) and Port LEDs. The 
following shows the LED indicators for the Switch along with an explanation of each indicator. 

  

Figure 1- 6. LED Indicators 

LED                                        Description 

Power 

This LED will light green after powering the Switch on to indicate the ready state 
of the device. The indicator is dark when the Switch is powered off. 

Master 

This LED will light solid green when the Switch is configured to be a master 
switch of a switch stack in a ring topology or when it is in use as a stand-alone 
switch. This LED will remain dark if the Switch is not configured to be a master 
switch of a switch stack or as a standalone switch. 

Console 

This LED should blink during the Power-On Self Test (POST). When the POST is 
finished successfully, the LED goes dark. This indicator will light solid green when 
the Switch is being logged into via out-of-band/local console management 
through the RS-232 console port in the front of the Switch using a straight-
through serial cable.  

This LED will light solid amber if the Power-On-Self-Test has failed. 

RPS 

This LED will light when the internal power has failed and the RPS has taken over 
the power supply to the Switch. Otherwise, it will remain dark. 

Port LEDs 

One row of LEDs for each port is located above the ports on the front panel. The 
first LED is for the top port and the second one is for the bottom ports. A solid 
light denotes a valid link on the port while a blinking light indicates activity on the 
port. These LEDs will remain dark if there is no link/activity on the port. 

Stacking Ports (SIO) 

There are six LEDs in the front of the DGS-3324SRi marked SIO 1-6, and they 
relate to the six 10-gigabit stacking ports at the rear of the Switch. For the DGS-
3324SR, DXS-3326GSR and the DXS-3350SR, there are only two stacking ports 
and therefore only two SIO LEDs, marked 1 and 2. These LEDs will light solid 
green to denote a valid link on the port. 

Stack ID 

These two seven segment LEDs display the current switch stack order of the 
Switch while in use. Possible numbers to be displayed range from 1-12.
