Console Port
This port is used to connect a console to the switch by using the RJ-45 to DB9
cable, supplied with the switch. This connection is described under “Connect
a Console to the Switch” in chapter 2, “Installing the Switch.” The console can
be a PC or workstation running a VT-100 terminal emulator, or a VT-100
terminal.
Expansion Module LEDs
“Expansion Module” LEDs refer to the LEDs specific to the expansion module.
These LEDs are located on the physical expansion module bulkhead. These
LEDs are only viewable in the rear of the Switch 2910al-48G product on the
Expansion Slot Module itself.
Table 1-3.
Expansion Module LEDs
Expansion module LEDs operate in modes for Link and Mode. FDx and Spd modes
have no meaning for the 10-GbE ports on the expansion module.
