Port LEDs and Modes
Each RJ-45 port and SFP module slot has a port LED. These port LEDs, as a group or individually,
display information about the switch and about the individual ports. The port modes determine the type
of information displayed through the port LEDs.
Table 1-4 lists the mode LEDs and their associated port
mode and meaning.
To select or change a mode, press the Mode button until the desired mode is highlighted. When you
change port modes, the meanings of the port LED colors also change.
Table 1-5 explains how to interpret
the port LED colors in different port modes.

Color RPS Status
Off RPS is off or not properly connected.

(redundancy has been allocated to a neighboring device).
Amber The RPS is in standby mode or in a fault condition. Press the Standby/Active button
on the RPS, and the LED should turn green. If it does not, the RPS fan could have
failed. Contact Cisco Systems.

to the switch (redundancy has been allocated to this device).
