LED Description
Offline When lit, this amber LED on the left side of the line card indicates that
the line card is offline (powered off) and is ready for hot swap.
The Offline LED also is lit briefly during a reboot or reset of the RS
and goes out as soon as the Control Module discovers and properly
initializes the line card.
Online When lit, this green LED indicates that the line card is online and is
ready to receive, process, and send packets if configured to do so.
Link Each port has two LEDs on its connector. The green LED on the left
side of the connector indicates the link status. When this LED is lit, the
port hardware is detecting that a cable is plugged into the port and the
port has established communication with the device at the other end.
Activity The amber LED on the right side of each port connector flashes each
time the port’s transceiver sends or receives packets.
