Switch LED status

Switch LEDs	State	Meaning
Power (Green)	On	Switch power is operating correctly.
	Off	Switch power is not operating correctly or there is no power connection.
Fault (Orange)	Off	The normal state; indicates there are no fault conditions on the switch.
	Blinking1	A fault has occurred on the switch, one of the switch ports, module in the rear of the switch, or the fan. The Status LED for the component with the Fault LED will blink simultaneously.
	On	On briefly after the switch is powered on or reset, at the beginning of switch selftest. If this LED is on for a prolonged time, the switch has encountered a fatal hardware failure, or has failed its self-test.
Locator (Blue)	On	The Locator LED is used to locate a specific switch in a area full of switches. The LED can be set to be on solid or blink for a specified number of minutes (1 - 1440). The default is 30 minutes. Use the command chassislocate .
	Blinking
	Off
PS (Green/Orange)	On green	The switch is receiving power.
	Off	The switch is NOT receiving power.
	Blinking orange1	A fault has occurred on one of the power supplies. The PS Status LED, Fault LED, and on the back of the switch the failed power supply LED (PS1 or PS2) will all blink simultaneously.
Tmp (Green/Orange)	On green	Switch temperature is normal.
	Blinking orange1	An over temperature condition has been detected. This is a Fault condition indicating elevated internal temperatures. The Fault LED will blink simultaneously.
	Blinking orange2	This indicates an alert condition indicating critical internal temperatures. The Fault LED will blink simultaneously.
Fan Status (Green/Orange)	On	Normal operation, all fans are ok.
	Blinking orange1	One of the unit’s fans has failed. The switch Fault LED will be blinking simultaneously.
	Blinking orange2	One of the unit’s fans has failed and the switch is in an overtemp condition. The switch Fault LED will be blinking simultaneously.
Fan LED on the fan tray (Orange)	Off	Normal operation, all fans are working properly.
	Blinking orange1	One or more of the unit’s fans has failed. The switch Fault LED, Fan status LED on the front of the switch, and the Fan status LED on the back of the switch will be blinking simultaneously.
Test (Green/Orange)	Off	The normal operational state; the switch is not undergoing self-test.
	On green	The switch self-test and initialization are in progress after the switch has been power cycled or reset. The switch is not operational until this LED goes off. The Self-Test LED also comes on briefly when you hot swap a transceiver into the switch; the transceiver is self-tested when it is hot swapped.
	Blinking orange1	A component of the switch has failed its self-test. The Status LED for that component, for example an RJ-45 port, and the switch Fault LED will blink simultaneously.
Port LEDs (Green/Orange – Link and Mode)	Link	Indicates the port LEDs are displaying link information: If the port LED is on, the port is enabled and receiving a link indication from the connected device. If the port LED is off, the port has no active network cable connected, or is not receiving link beat or sufficient light. Otherwise, the port may have been disabled through the switch console, the web browser interface, or ProCurve Manager. if the port LED is Blinking1 (orange) simultaneously with the Fault LED, the corresponding port has failed its self-test.
	Mode	The operation of the Mode LED is controlled by the LED Mode select button, and the current setting is indicated by the LED Mode indicator LEDs near the button. Press the button to step from one view mode to the next. The default view is Activity (Act).
LED Mode View (Green LEDs)	Act	Indicates the port LEDs are displaying network activity information.
	FDx	Indicates port LEDs are lit for ports in Full Duplex Mode. Off indicates ½ duplex.
	Spd	Indicates the port LEDs are displaying the connection speed at which each port is operating: f the port LED is off, the port is operating at 10 Mbps. f the port LED is Blinking2 , the port is operating at 100 Mbps. f the port LED is on continuously, the port is operating at 1000 Mbps.
	Usr	Indicates the port is displaying customer-specified information.
Auxiliary (Green/Orange)	Blinking green2	Data transfer between the switch and a USB device is occurring.
	On green	USB device is connected to the switch. No data transfer operation is occurring.
	Blinking orange1	Indicates an error condition. The switch Fault LED will be blinking simultaneously. There is a hardware fault associated with the USB device or the USB connector on the switch.
	Blinking orange2	Indicates an alert condition. The switch Fault LED should not be blinking simultaneously. An alert error occurred in the USB operation that is not caused by a hardware fault, such as a file transfer error.
	Off	Indicates that no USB device has been inserted, or that the inserted USB device cannot be recognized, or that no command file can be found on the inserted USB device.
1 The Blinking behavior is an on/off cycle once every 1.6 seconds, approximately. 2 The Blinking behavior is an on/off cycle once every 0.8 seconds, approximately.

LED Mode select button and indicator LEDs

The operation of the Mode LED is controlled by the LED Mode select button , and the current setting is indicated by the LED Mode indicator LEDs near the button. Press the button to step from one view mode to the next.

• Each port has a Link LED. If it is lit, the port has a link. If the Link LED is Blinking, the port has failed its self-test. The Fault and Self-Test LEDs will be Blinking simultaneously.
• If the Activity indicator LED (ACT ) is lit, each port Mode LED displays activity information for the port - it flickers as network traffic is received and transmitted through the port.
• If the Full Duplex indicator LED (FDx ) is lit, the port Mode LEDs light for those ports that are operating in full duplex.
• If the Speed indicator LED (Spd ) is lit, the port LEDs behave as follows to indicate the connection speed for the port:
  • Off = 10 Mbps
  • Flashing = 100 Mbps
  • ON = 1000 Mbps
• The Usr Mode LED indicates the port is displaying customer-specified information.
