  • On steadily—The switch is functioning normally.
  • Blinking—The switch is booting.
  • Off—The switch is off.

A major alarm (red) indicates a critical error condition that requires immediate action.

A minor alarm (amber) indicates a noncritical condition that requires monitoring or maintenance. A minor alarm that is left unchecked might cause interruption in service or performance degradation.

Both LEDs can be lit simultaneously.

You can view the colors of the two LEDs remotely through the CLI by issuing the operational mode command show chassis led.
