■Each port has a Link LED. If it is lit, the port has a link. If the Link LED is Blinking, the port has failed its self test. The Fault and Self Test LEDs will be Blinking simultaneously.

■If the Activity (Act) indicator LED is lit, each port LED displays activity information for the associated port—it flickers as network traffic is received and transmitted through the port.

■If the Full Duplex (FDx) indicator LED is lit, the port LEDs light for those ports that are operating in full duplex.

■If the Speed (Spd) indicator LED is lit, the port LEDs behave as follows to indicate the connection speed for the port:

•Off = 10 Mbps

•Blinking = 100 Mbps (the Blinking behavior is a repeated on/off cycle once every 0.8 sec.)

•On = 1000 Mbps

■The Usr Mode LED indicates the port is displaying customer-specified information.

Reset Button

This button is for:

■Resetting the switch - When the switch is powered on. This action clears any temporary error conditions that may have occurred and executes the switch self test.

■Restoring Factory Default Configuration - When pressed with the Clear button in a specific pattern, any configuration changes you may have made through the switch console, the web browser interface, and SNMP management are removed, and the factory default configuration is restored to the switch. For the specific method to restore the factory default configuration, see “Restoring the Factory Default Configuration” on page 11, in the Troubleshooting chapter of this manual.
