Table 3-28. LED Indications During the Software Download Process
Phase Description LED indications
1 The new software 
image is being 
downloaded to 
the switch.
100 Mb/s port status LEDs (ports 7 to 12 only): The LEDs begin to turn on 
from right to left, beginning with port 12. The LED pattern indicates the 
progress of the download process. When LEDs 7 to 12 are all on, this 
indicates that the switch has received the new software image successfully.
2 The switch’s flash 
memory is being 
erased.
10 Mb/s port status LEDs (ports 1 to 12 only): The LEDs begin to turn on 
from left to right, beginning with port 1. The LED pattern indicates that 
various sectors of the switch’s flash memory are being erased. When LEDs 
1 to 12 are all on, this indicates that the switch’s flash memory has been 
erased.
3 The new software 
image is being 
programmed into the 
switch’s flash memory.
100 Mb/s port status LEDs (ports 1 to 8 only): The LEDs begin to turn on 
from left to right, beginning with port 1. The LED pattern indicates that the 
new software image is being programmed into the switch’s flash memory. 
When LEDs 1 to 8 are all on, this indicates that the new software image 
has been programmed successfully into the switch’s flash memory.
4 The switch is reset 
automatically.
After the reset is complete, the new software image initiates the switch’s 
self-test, which comprises various diagnostic routines and subtests.
The LEDs display various patterns to indicate that the subtests are in 
progress. The results of the self-test are displayed briefly in the Self-Test 
screen, which is followed by the CI screens.
