LED

 

Indication

Description

 

 

 

 

ENABLED

 

Green

Indicates the ISA is powered up. After system initialization,

 

 

 

the enabled LED goes on to indicate that power is received

 

 

 

and that the ISA is enabled for operation. All the following

 

 

 

conditions must be met before the enabled LED goes on:

 

 

 

The ISA is correctly connected to the backplane and

 

 

 

receiving power.

 

 

 

The system bus recognizes the ISA.

 

 

 

If either of these conditions is not met, or if the router

 

 

 

initialization fails, the enabled LED does not go on.

 

 

 

 

BOOT

 

Amber

Indicates the ISA is booting. This amber LED remains on

 

 

 

while the ISA is in the boot process or when a packet is being

 

 

 

encrypted or decrypted.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pulse Amber

Indicates the ISA is operating. After successfully booting, the

 

 

 

boot LED pulses in a "heartbeat" pattern to indicate that the

 

 

 

ISA is operating. As crypto traffic increases, the nominal

 

 

 

level of this LED increases in proportion to the traffic level.

 

 

 

 

ERROR

 

Amber

Indicates an error has occurred. This amber LED goes on to

 

 

 

indicate that an error was found in either the encryption

 

 

 

function or the compression function. It is normally off.

 

 

 

 

All of these physical interfaces are separated into the logical interfaces from FIPS as described in Table 3.
