PLANET Desktop Switch 

Figure 3.2 Message Zone 

Observing Basic Port Information 

The basic port information, such as link up, link down, transmit/receive 
activity, enabled/disabled as well as auto partition can be easily spotted 
through the 

Port Indicators

 located in the first row of the Mini-Console. 

 

 

 

Figure 3.3 Port Indicators. 

 

Port Indicators:

 Showing the activity of ports such as link up, link down, 

TX/RX, enabled or disabled. 

 

The 

Port Indicator

 shows the ports that are linked up by 

intensifying the light for the ports that are available. The 
example above, Fig 3.3 shows ports 1~4, are linked up (or 
available). 
 
While the ports are receiving or transmitting data, the port’s  
number will be flashing. 
 
When ports are disabled by the administrator, an amber 
frame around the port number will be turned on. 
 
If the outline is blinking, it means it has been partitioned 
automatically due to some error condition such as a loop or
