Viewing the Indicator Displays
Top Panel Indicators
The indicators are a set of displays located on the top panel of the
Aironet Wireless Client (Figure 1.6).
n Radio Indicator: Used to indicate radio traffic activity. The light is
normally off, but will blink green whenever a packet is received or
transmitted over the radio.
n Status Indicator: Used to indicate operational status. Blinking
green indicates the Aironet Wireless Client is operating normally
but is not in RF communication. Solid green indicates the unit has
associated with an Access Point.
n Infrastructure Indicator: Used to indicate infrastructure traffic
activity. The light is normally off, but will blink green whenever a
packet is received or transmitted over the infrastructure.
When the Aironet Wireless Client is initially powered up, all three dis-
plays will blink amber, red and then green, in sequence. If a power-on
test fails, the status indicator will go solid red and the unit will stop
functioning. See Table 1.1 for a detailed explanation of the Top Panel
indicators.
