LEDs
LED Location
The switch has a set of LEDs to indicate the status of various operating conditions as
defined below.
Typical LED Location
Status LED
The Status LED indicates the overall health of the switch. It is normally ON solid green
indicating that no internal CPU or software problems are detected. It will flash green when
loading firmware and briefly on power up or reset. Otherwise, if it is OFF or amber for an
extended period of time then a problem is detected. In this case, please contact technical
support.
10G LED
The 10G LED indicates that the 10 Gigabit ports have power and are detected by the
system. It is normally ON solid green. If this LED is OFF, please contact technical support.
Power LED
The Power LED will be on solid green when power is applied to the switch. In the event of a
power fault, the LED will turn to solid amber. The LED will also be solid amber during a
portion of the boot up sequence.
Ethernet
LEDs
The switch has a set of LEDs to indicate the status of the Ethernet ports. Each LED is
labeled with the number of the port it represents. They function as follows:
Solid Green = 1000 Mbps linked detected but no Ethernet activity.
Flashing Green = 1000 Mbps linked detected with Ethernet activity.
Solid Orange = 10/100 Mbps linked but no Ethernet activity.
Flashing Orange = 10/100 Mbps linked detected with Ethernet activity.
OFF = No link detected.
LED Blackout
The switch is equipped with the capability to toggle the LEDs from an active state to an
inactive state. See
Console Receptacle Pinout
