The Supervisor Card 39
Chapter 6
See the Alcatel AOS-W User’s Guide for information on using the features
available through this port.
Utilization LEDs
The supervisor card has a bank of five utilization LEDs. While booting, these
LEDs light in sequential fashion.
During operation, these LEDs light to indicate the level of activity in a
functioning module. Each LED from left to right represents an increment of
20% in the activity of the supervisor card. When all five LEDs are lit, the SCM
is functioning at 100% capacity.
The right-most of the lit LEDs will blink to verify the supervisor card is
operating properly. No LEDs will be lit if the module is in standby mode or not
functioning.
Reset button
Only push the reset button when directed to do so by Alcatel technical
support.
