CHAPTER 2 Installation

 

 

An explanation of the Port LED indicators is listed below:

LED

 

 

 

 

 

 

Off

Off

Normal status of operation for ports in which SFPs

 

 

are not installed.

 

 

The port will be in the bypass state, which precludes

 

 

the port from participating in the network.

 

 

 

On

Off

Normal operation. Port and device are operational.

 

 

 

On

On

Bypass. The port is non-operational due to loss of

 

(Yellow)

signal, poor signal integrity, or the attached node is

 

 

sending LIP(F8,xx).

 

 

This is the normal status condition when the SFP is

 

 

present but not attached to a FC-AL node, or if it is

 

 

only attached to a cable assembly with nothing

 

 

attached at the opposite end. Replacing such a port

 

 

(or replugging the same port twice) is considered to

 

 

be a configuration change, which should initiate the

 

 

Loop Initialization Procedure by the attached device.

 

 

 

Off

On

Tx Fault. The port is non-operational due to an SFP

 

(Yellow)

transmitter fault or improperly-seated SFP.

 

 

 

Off

Blinking

The port is being manually controlled by a

 

(Yellow)

management entity.

 

 

 

Blinking

Blinking

A management entity is forcing a port beacon to

 

(Yellow)

locate a particular port on the switch.

 

 

 

On

On

A connection has been made with the port.

 

(Green)

Note: This LED is only applicable when the port is

 

 

operating in switching mode. If the port is in

 

 

switching mode and the LED is off, the port is not

 

 

currently involved in a transaction.
