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

  • On steadily—Junos OS has been loaded on the device.

  • Blinking—The device is booting.

  • Off—The device is powered off or is halted.

MST (Primary)

Green

  • On steadily—The device is functioning normally.

  • Off—The device is powered off or is halted.

PH

Unlit

There is no Network Service Activator transaction.

Green

  • On steadily—Network Service Activator transaction is successfully completed. That is, the Network Service Orchestrator in NFX250 contacted the Network Service Activator and provisioned the software image successfully.

  • Blinking—Network Service Activator transaction is underway.

  • Off—The device is powered off or is halted.

Amber

  • On steadily—Network Service Activator transaction is terminated unsuccessfully.

  • Blinking—Network Service Activator transaction is waiting for user input.

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.

Management Port LEDs on NFX250 Devices

The management port on the front panel of an NFX250 device has two LEDs that indicate link activity and port status (see Figure 6).
