. Partition/Link Traffic LEDs
Partition
LED Activity Condition Indication
STEADY YELLOW
LIGHT
PARTITION Indicates port partitioning due to a cable error or
other abnormal network condition.
NO LIGHT OFF Port is in good condition.
A port is temporarily partitioned when a line error or too many collisions are
detected on the attached segment. While it is automatically partitioned, the port
continues to transmit data to the segment. However, data is not repeated from
the segment. When the problem is corrected or a valid data packet is received
through the port, the port is automatically reconnected. When partitioning
occurs, the port’s corresponding Partition LED is continually lit yellow.
Otherwise, this LED should be off.
