Status Indicators Appendix A
Dual-purpose Port
Status Indicators The status indicators on a dual-purpose port, as shown in the following figure,
show whether the RJ45 connector or an SFP module is active. The port can be
configured as either a 10/100/1000 port through the RJ45 connector or as an
SFP module, but not both. The status indicators show which port is being used
and the current port activity.
Table 25 - Dual-purpose Port Status Indicators
Status Description
Off No link.
Solid green A link is present.
Flashing green The port is sending or receiving data.
Flashing amber A link blocked by STP is sending or receiving data.
Alternating green
and amber A link is faulted. Error frames can affect connectivity. Excessive collisions, CRC errors, and
alignment and jabber errors are monitored for a link-fault indication (RJ45 connection only).
Solid amber The port is not forwarding. The port was disabled by management, or there is an address or STP
violation.
After a port is reconfigured, the port status indicator can remain amber for as many as
30 seconds while STP checks the network for possible loops.
