Port LED patterns Each port has two LEDs: a port speed and a port status indicator. These LEDs are located below both rows of ports, and each set is labeled with the port number. Table 7 shows the LED location, color, and meaning for these port LEDs. Table 7. Port LED patterns during normal operation LED name LED color Status of hardware Recommended action Port Status No light No light or signal carrier (SFP or cable) detected. Check SFP and cable. Steady green Port is online (connected to external No action required. device) but has no traffic. Slow-flashing green (on one second, off one second) Port is online but segmented, indicating a loopback cable or incompatible switch. Verify that the correct device is connected to port and that the switch and port settings are correct. Fast-flashing green (on 1/4 second, off 1/4 second) Port is in internal loopback (diagnostic). No action required. Flickering green Port is online with traffic flowing through port. No action required. Steady amber Port is receiving light or signal carrier No action required. but is not yet online. Slow-flashing amber (on one second, off one second) Port is disabled as the result of Enable the port using the portEnable diagnostics or portDisable command. command.

If all ports are slow-flashing amber, enable the switch using the switchEnable command. Fast-flashing amber (on 1/4 second, off 1/4 second) Port is faulty. Perform the following steps: 1. Check the Port Status LEDs, error log, SFP, and cable or loopback plug. 2. Clear the error log. 3. Rerun the diagnostics to verify that the error condition is fixed. Alternating green Port is bypassed. and amber Check configuration of Fibre Channel loop. Port Speed Green on, amber Port is transmitting/receiving at 2 off Gb/sec. No action required. Green off, amber Port is transmitting/receiving at 1 off Gb/sec. No action required. Amber on, green Port is transmitting/receiving at 4 off Gb/sec. No action required. Ethernet LED patterns Each Ethernet port has two LEDs, the Link LED, and the Speed LED (see Figure 9 on page 22 for the Ethernet port and Ethernet LED locations). Table 8 on page 25 describes the location, color, and meaning for the Ethernet LED activity. 24 SAN16B-2 Installation, Service, and User's Guide
