LED Details of an NFX150 Device
Chassis Status LEDs
The front panel of an NFX150-C-S1 and NFX150-S1 devices have chassis status LEDs labeled ALM, SYS, MST and PH.
Figure 6 shows the chassis status LEDs in an NFX150-C-S1 device.

Table 1 describes
the chassis status LEDs in an NFX150 device, their colors and states,
and the status they indicate. You can view the colors of the four
LEDs remotely through the CLI by issuing the operational mode command show chassis led
.
LED Label |
Color |
State and Description |
---|---|---|
ALM (Alarm) |
Unlit |
There is no alarm or the device is halted. |
Red |
There is a major alarm. |
|
Amber |
There is a minor alarm. |
|
SYS (System) |
Green |
|
MST (Primary) |
Green |
|
PH |
Unlit |
There is no Network Service Activator transaction. |

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 left unchecked might cause interruption in service or performance degradation.
All four LEDs can be lit simultaneously.
Network Port and Uplink Port LEDs
Each network port and uplink port on the front panel of an NFX150 has two LEDs that indicate link activity and port status (see Figure 8).

Table 2 describes the Link/Activity LED.
