The following describes the switch port LED behavior and meaning:
Telephone Port LEDs (Green)
When on steady, the port is configured as a telephone port and the telephone is idle.
When flashing with ring cadence, the telephone is ringing.
When flashing slowly, the telephone is off hook.
When flashing fast, the port is in use (call in progress).
Trunk Port LED (Yellow)
When on steady, the port is configured as a trunk port and the trunk is idle.
When flashing slowly, the trunk is off hook.
When flashing fast, the trunk is in use (call in progress).
Port LED Alternating Green/Yellow: The port is out of service. The LED periodically alternates
green/yellow or yellow/green. The LED color between alternating colors indicates the port type:
green for phone and yellow for trunk.
Off (IP phone): When the LED is off, the port is reserved for IP phones, for conferencing, or is not
configured.
Network LEDs
The network LEDs (LAN1 and LAN2) indicate the speed at which the switch is communicating with the
network and whether there is network activity.
When both LAN connectors are connected into a redundant network configuration, one network port is
active while the other is in standby mode. If one LAN connection fails, the switch activates the other
port.
The network LED descriptions are as follows:
Link/Activity: When lit, this LED indicates that the switch is connected to an Ethernet network. This
LED indicates network activity, as follows:
When flashing, network activity is detected.
When on (not flashing), heavy network activity is detected.
When off, the switch has no power.
This LED is not directly related to any switch’s individual network activity. For example, if three
switches are connected to the same hub and one switch’s Traffic LED shows activity, the other
switches will indicate the same activity.
100M
When green, the switch is connected to a 100BaseT network.
When off, the switch is connected to a 10BaseT network.
