Hub View Port Color Codes
The Port Status boxes in the Hub View are color coded to indicate the port’s
connection status. The colors are consistent for all Port Display Forms except
Admin Status; the exceptions are noted below.
• Green indicates that the port is active; that is, the port has been enabled by
management, has a valid Link signal (if applicable), and is able to
communicate with the station at the other end of the port’s cable segment.
Note that an AUI or transceiver port will display as active as long as it has been
enabled by management, even if no cable is connected.
