Dell PowerConnect J-Series J-EX4200 Ethernet Switch Hardware Guide The LCD panel has a backlight. If the LCD panel is idle for 60 seconds, the backlight turns off. You can turn on the backlight by pressing the Menu or Enter button once. After turning on the backlight, you can toggle between the LCD panel menus by pressing the Menu button and navigate through the menu options by pressing the Enter button. NOTE: The chassis viewer in the J-Web interface also displays the LCD panel. From the J-Web interface, you can view real-time status information in the LCD panel. See the information about the dashboard for J-EX Series switches in the Dell PowerConnect J-Series Ethernet Switch Complete Software Guide for Junos OS: Volume 1 at http://www.support.dell.com/manuals. LCD Panel Modes This topic describes: • LCD Panel Modes on page 12 • LCD Panel Menus on page 13 The LCD panel operates in four modes: boot, idle, status, and maintenance. The LCD panel operates in boot mode during switch reboot. The boot mode displays the key milestones in the switch boot process. The boot mode does not have any menu options. After the boot process is complete, the LCD panel automatically reverts to the Idle menu. In a J-EX4200 switch that is not a member of a Virtual Chassis, the first line of the LCD panel displays the slot number, the role of the switch, and hostname. For a standalone J-EX4200 switch, the slot number is always 00 and the role is always RE (for master). In a J-EX4200 switch that is a member of a Virtual Chassis, the first line of the LCD panel displays: • The slot number (the member ID for the Virtual Chassis member) • Role of the switch in a Virtual Chassis (RE for master, BK for backup, and LC for linecard member) • Hostname In the idle mode, the second line displays the mode of the network ports' Status LED and the number of chassis alarms. The number of alarms is updated every second. In the status mode, the second line displays: • Virtual Chassis port (VCP) status (for a J-EX4200 switch that is a member of a Virtual Chassis) • Status of the power supply • Status of the fan and temperature • Version of Junos OS for J-EX Series switches loaded on the switch 12

displays:

•

The slot number (the member ID for the Virtual Chassis member)

•

Role of the switch in a Virtual Chassis (

for master,

for backup, and

for linecard

•

Hostname

In the idle mode, the second line displays the mode of the network ports’ Status LED and

the number of chassis alarms. The number of alarms is updated every second.

In the status mode, the second line displays:

Chassis)

•

Status of the power supply

•
