RouteFinder
Front Panel
The front panel contains three groups of LEDs that provide the status of the LAN connection, WAN Link activity, and general status of the RouteFinder. The Ethernet LEDs display the activity of the LAN whether the RouteFinder is connected to the LAN, transmitting or receiving packets, and if a collision is in progress. The WAN Link LEDs display the status of the link (i.e., ready to transmit or receive serial data and if an external communications device with a V.35 interface is connected to the RouteFinder). The last group of LEDs indicates whether the self test passed or failed and if the power On/Off switch on the back of the RouteFinder is turned On.

Figure 1-2. Front Panel
ETHERNET
RCV Receive indicator blinks when packets are being received from the local area network. XMT Transmit indicator blinks when packets are being transmitted to the local area network.
COL Collision indicator lights when a collision is in progress, that is, when two nodes are transmitting packets at the same time.
LNK Link indicator lights indicating that the RouteFinder is connected to the local area network.
WAN Link
RCV Receive indicator blinks when the link is receiving data.
XMT Transmit indicator blinks when the link is transmitting data.
CTS Clear To Send indicator lights when the link is ready to transmit data.
RTS Request to Send indicator lights then the link is ready to receive data.
CD Carrier Detect indicator lights when the RouteFinder detects a carrier signal.
V.35 The V35 indicator lights when the link is configured for a V.35 interface. That is, the shunt for the link is in the V.35 position.
FAIL The Fail indicator lights for 3 minutes when power is applied to the DSU RouteFinder; if it remains on for 3 minutes, it indicates a boot failure has occurred; this indicator also lights when fimware is being downloaded to the DSU RouteFinder.
POWER The power indicator lights when the On/Off Switch is in the ON position.
