Brocade EZSwitchSetup Administrator’s Guide (Supporting 300, 5100, 5300, 6505, 6510, 6520, 7800, 7840, and VA-40FC) - Manual (Page 46)

NOTE
All of the 8 Gbps and 16 Gbps Brocade switches do not have port speed LEDs, but only port status
LEDs.
The background color of the port icon indicates the port status:
• Green (healthy)
• Yellow (marginal)
• Red (critical)
• Gray (unmonitored)
If the entire port icon is blue, the port is buffer-limited. A port is operating in buffer-limited mode when
the number of buffers allocated to the port is less than the number of buffers needed by the port to
utilize the port at full bandwidth.
If a group of port icons is gray (unmonitored), those ports are not licensed.
The following figure shows port icons and associated LEDs from a Brocade 6520 switch. The layout is
similar for all switches, but varies according to switch type. The blinking LEDs indicate port status.
