Power supply failure
Look at the PWR1 or PWR2 LED of the switch to identify a power supply failure. For more information
about the PWR1 and PWR2 LEDs on the front panel of the switch, see
.
If the power supply system is correctly working, the power supply status LEDs are steady green. If the LEDs
behave in any other way, verify the following items:
•
The switch power cord is properly connected.
•
The power source meets the requirement.
•
The operating temperature of the switch is in the normal range and the power supply has good
ventilation.
