12 Checking the Access Point LEDs
The location of the access point status LED is shown in Figure 2.
Note Regarding LED status colors, it is expected that there will be small variations in color intensity and hue from
unit to unit. This is within the normal range of the LED manufacturer’s specifications and is not a defect.
However, the intensity of the LED can be changed through the controller.
The access point status LED indicates various conditions and are described in Table 2.
