IPMI-Dedicated LAN LEDs (On the I/O 
Module)

In addition to LAN 1/LAN 2, an IPMI-dedicat-
ed LAN is also located on the I/O module. 
The yellow LED on the right indicates activ-
ity, while the green LED on the left indicates 
the speed of the connection. Refer to the 
tables on the right for more information.

LAN LEDs (On the I/O Module)

Two LAN ports (LAN 1/LAN 2) are located 
on the I/O module of the system. Each Eth-
ernet LAN port has two LEDs. The green 
LED indicates activity, while the other Link 
LED may be green, yellow, or off to indicate 
the speed of the connections. Refer to the 
tables on the right for more information.
