Monitoring the Front Panel

Use the LEDs on the front panel of the RMON MultiProbe Module to monitor the status of the module and the module interfaces. The RMON MultiProbe Module front panel also contains a recessed Reset button for resetting the module.

Resetting the module is equivalent to a warm start. Refer to Chapter 3, Configuring the Module, the section titled Re-Initializing the RMON MultiProbe Module for information on warm and cold starts.

When you install the RMON MultiProbe Module in the hub, an Interface Status LED illuminates for each interface after the following conditions are met:

❑The RMON MultiProbe Module completes self-diagnostics and initializes.

❑You assign an interface to a network (the interface is enabled automatically once you assign a network using a 3Com management module or set the DIP switches).

The Module Status LED illuminates once the module completes self-diagnostics and initializes (45 seconds).
