Verifying Module

Operation

The 10-port 100BASE-FX FEN Switching Module has 10 Port Status LEDs
and the 20-port 10/100BASE-TX FEN Switching Module has 20 Port
Status LEDs. Each module has one Module Status LED.

Watch the LEDs during the system power-on diagnostics test to verify
proper module operation:

On the Module Status LED, the normal power-on test sequence is
Green – Yellow – Green – Flashing Green (while running the
diagnostic test) – Green

If the Module Status LED is Yellow after the diagnostics run, the module
has failed.

The Port Status LEDs are tested during the diagnostic test. The normal
test sequence is Yellow – Green – Off
