Table 1: FortiGate-5001A LEDs

LED		State	Description
1, 2		Green	The correct cable is connected to the interface and the
(Left LED)			connected equipment has power.
		Flashing	Network activity at the interface.
		Green
		Off	No link is established.
1, 2		Green	Connection at 1 Gbps.
(Right LED)
		Amber	Connection at 100 Mbps.
		Off	Connection at 10 Mbps.
Base CH0		Green	Base backplane interface 0 (base1) is connected at 1 Gbps.
		Flashing	Network activity at base backplane interface 0.
		Green
Base CH1		Green	Base backplane interface 1 (base2) is connected at 1 Gbps.
		Flashing	Network activity at base backplane interface 1.
		Green
Fabric CH0		Off	Fabric backplane interface 0 (fabric1) is connected at 10
			Gbps.
		Flashing	Network activity at fabric backplane interface 0.
		Green
Fabric CH1		Off	Fabric backplane interface 1 (fabric2) is connected at 10
			Gbps.
		Flashing	Network activity at fabric backplane interface 1.
		Green
	ACC	Off or	The ACC LED flashes green when the FortiGate-5001A
		Flashing	board accesses the FortiOS flash disk. The FortiOS flash
		green	disk stores the current FortiOS firmware build and
			configuration files. The system accesses the flash disk when
			starting up, during a firmware upgrade, or when an
			administrator is using the CLI or GUI to change the FortiOS
			configuration. Under normal operating conditions this LED
			flashes occasionally, but is mostly off.
	OOS	Off	Normal operation.
Green		A fault condition exists and the FortiGate-5001A blade is out
			(Out of
		of service (OOS). This LED may also flash very briefly during
	Service)
			normal startup.
	Power	Green	The FortiGate-5001A board is powered on.
	Status	Off	The FortiGate-5001A board is powered on.
Flashing		The FortiGate-5001A is starting up. If this LED is flashing at
		Green	any time other than system startup, a fault condition may
			exist.
	IPM	Blue	The FortiGate-5001A is ready to be hot-swapped (removed
			from the chassis). If the IPM light is blue and no other LEDs
			are lit the FortiGate-5001A board has lost power.
		Flashing	The FortiGate-5001A is changing from hot swap to running
		Blue	mode or from running mode to hot swap. This happens when
			the FortiGate-5001A board is starting up or shutting down.
		Off	Normal operation. The FortiGate-5001A board is in contact
			with the chassis backplane.
