Smart MissingLink Mode

The Smart MissingLink mode pulses the transmitter on a port when its
companion port in a channel loses or has not established a link to its
network device. The blinking Link LED can make it easier for you to
identify and troubleshoot a link problem on the two ports of a channel. For
more information on this operating mode, refer to “Smart MissingLink
Mode” on page 39.

Table 10 lists the combinations and definitions of the Link LEDs for the
twisted pair port and fiber optic port of a channel operating in this mode.
