Switch and Link Status
Switch icon shape and color provide information about the switch and its
operational state. Lines represent links between switches. The topology display
uses green to indicate normal operation, yellow to indicate operational with errors,
red to indicate inactive or failure, and blue to indicate unknown. Refer to ”Fabric
Status” on page 3-7 for more information about topology display icons.
