Partition

LED Activity

STEADY RED LIGHT

NO LIGHT

Condition

PARTITION

OFF

Indication

Indicates port partitioning due to an abnormal network condition.

Port is in good condition.

ΦThe Partition LEDs are also used as diagnostic LEDs. Please refer to the section on Diagnostic Test LED Indicators later in this chapter for more information.

Partition

A port is temporarily partitioned when a line error or too many collisions are detected on the attached segment. While it is automatically partitioned, the port continues to receive data from the segment. However, data is not transmitted onto the segment. When the problem is corrected or a valid data packet is received through the port, the port is automatically recon- nected. When partitioning occurs, the port’s corresponding Partition LED will be continually lit (RED light). Otherwise, this LED should be OFF (unlit).

Link/Traffic

LED Activity

Condition

STEADY GREEN LIGHT

BLINKING GREEN LIGHT

ON

 

 

NO LIGHT

OFF

Indication

Indicates a valid link has been established on this port.

Indicates the port is receiving packets; blinking is proportional to the traffic passing through the port.

No valid link has been established on this port.

Link

The corresponding Link/Traffic LED should light up when a device (e.g., computer, hub or bridge) establishes a valid connection using the RJ-45 port. However, for the ALT port, no link connection is tested. The Link/Traffic LED for ALT only monitors the traffic condition.
