LED status indicators

The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board comes supplied with four optical or four copper SFP transceivers. Before you can connect FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC interfaces 1 to 4, you must insert the SFP transceivers into the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC front panel cage slots numbered 1 to 4.

The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board ships with two RAM DIMMs installed on the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC circuit board. You should confirm that the RAM DIMMs are installed correctly before inserting the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board into a chassis.

Front panel LEDs and connectors

From the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC font panel you can view the status of the front panel LEDs to verify that the board is functioning normally. You also connect the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board to your network through the front panel ethernet connectors. The front panel also includes the RS-232 console port for connecting to the FortiOS CLI and a USB port. The USB port can be used with a Fortinet USB key. For information about using the FortiUSB key, see the FortiGate-5000 Series Firmware and FortiUSB Guide.

The ACC LED flashes red when the

 

Flashing

FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board accesses the FortiOS flash

 

red

disk. The FortiOS flash 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.

 

 

 

STA

Green

Normal operation.

 

 

 

 

Red

The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC is booting or a fault condition

 

 

exists.

 

 

 

IPM

Blue

The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC is ready to be hot-swapped

 

 

(removed from the chassis). If the IPM light is blue and no

 

 

other LEDs are lit the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board has

 

 

lost power, possibly because of a loose or incorrectly aligned

 

 

left handle.

 

 

 

 

Flashing

The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC is changing from hot swap to

 

Blue

running mode or from running mode to hot swap.

 

 

 

 

Off

Normal operation. The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board is in

 

 

contact with the chassis backplane.

 

 

 

1, 2, 3, 4

Green

The correct cable is connected to the gigabit SFP interface.

 

 

 

 

Flashing

Network activity at the gigabit SFP interface.
