6.1 Starting the Switch  
  6.1.2 Switch LED indicators  
The front panel of a switch has several lights to help monitor system activity and performance. These lights are called light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The front of the switch has the following LEDs:
  • System LED
  • Remote Power Supply (RPS) LED
  • Port Mode LED
  • Port Status LEDs

The System LED shows whether the system is receiving power and functioning correctly.

The RPS LED indicates whether or not the remote power supply is in use.

The Mode LEDs indicate the current state of the Mode button. The modes are used to determine how the Port Status LEDs are interpreted. To select or change the port mode, press the Mode button repeatedly until the Mode LEDs indicate the desired mode.

The Port Status LEDs have different meanings, depending on the current value of the Mode LED.
