software.

Each port on the THN-MIM has two LANVIEW

LEDs, the Port OK

(POK) LED and the Receive (RCV) LED. The POK LED remains lit as
long as the port is connected to the network. If a port is segmented from
the network, the LED will not be lit. The RCV LED will be lit when
activity is detected on the segment. These LEDs help diagnose physical
layer problems as they arise.
