Monitoring Hardware Operation
You can determine hardware component operating status and states by viewing the
simulated light emitting diode (LED) indicators and status symbols, such as
flashing red and yellow diamonds and yellow triangles, that display on hardware
components. These simulated LEDs and status symbols reflect the state of the
actual hardware as changes occur. Corresponding or additional descriptions of
hardware status and states also display when you double-click components to
display Properties dialog boxes.
Figure 9 illustrates the Hardware View for the Edge Switch. The figure includes
examples of symbols and LED indicators that display to help you monitor
hardware operation. The numbers called out in Figure 9 are keyed to descriptions
in the sections, “Front View” on page 60 and “Rear View” on page 61.
