Port Operational States
The State column of the Port List tab view displays one of the following
operational states:
■ Beaconing — The port is beaconing, which means that the beaconing light
is flashing on the physical hardware. (A port in a failed state cannot beacon.)
■ Inactive — The switch port is in an inactive state. Reasons for this state
display in the Reason field of the Port Properties page. (See “ Viewing Port
Properties ” on page 102 for more information.)
Note: Note that if port optics have also failed, the amber LED will be on.
■ Invalid Attachment — The switch port is in an invalid attachment
state.
■ Link Incident — A link incident occurred on one of the ports.
■ Link Reset — The switch and the attached device are performing a link
reset operation to recover the link connection. Ordinarily, this is a transient
state.
■ No Light — No signal (light) is being received on the switch port. This is a
normal condition when there is no cable plugged into the port or when the
power of the device attached to the other end of the link is off.
