Monitoring overview
The PowerConnect B-DCX-4S is engineered for reliability and requires no routine operational steps
or maintenance. This chapter provides information about determining the status of each
component using LEDs and CLI commands. Refer to the
Web Tools Administrator’s Guide
and the
Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide for additional information.
