1. Port attention indicator
The yellow triangle on the port connector graphic indicates that a link incident occurred or that
the port is not operational, in nonstandard mode of operation, or has other status. You can
determine the reason for a link incident by displaying the Port Properties dialog box for the
port. For details on status symbols, see Table 4 on page 72. For information on link incidents,
see ” Link incident alerts ” on page 75.
2. Port LED indicator
The two round indicators (green or blue and amber) to the left of each port connector simulate
LED operation on the actual switch port. A green LED indicates that the port is online with an
operating speed of 1 gigabit per second (Gbps). A blue LED indicates that the port is online
with an operating speed of 2 Gbps. When the amber indicator illuminates steadily, the port
has failed and requires service. For details on port LED indicator operation, see Table 4 on
page 72.
3. Port failure indicator
A blinking red and yellow diamond over a port connector indicates that the port has failed. See
Table 4 on page 72 for details on port operating states and the status symbol and indicator
operation.
