Indicators for each network interface display link status, card

speed, and activity. The network interface cards (NICs) are auto-

sensing and adapt to wire speed automatically. The speed

indicator lights when there is a good physical connection to the

Firebox. When the card runs at 10 Mbit, the speed indicator is

yellow. When the card runs at 100 Mbit, the speed indicator is

green. The amber traffic indicator blinks when traffic is passing

through the Firebox.
