bladeBeacon
Set blade beaconing mode on or off.
Syntax
bladeBeacon [blade] mode
Availability Admin
Description Use this command to set the blade beaconing mode on or off. Specify
mode 1 to enable beaconing mode, or specify mode 0 to disable
beaconing.
When beaconing mode is enabled, the port LEDs will flash amber in a
running pattern from port 0 through port 15 and back again. The
pattern continues until the user turns it off. This can be used to locate
a physical unit.
Beaconing mode only takes over the port LEDs, it does not change
the switch’s functional behavior. The normal flashing LED pattern
(associated with an active, faulty, or disabled port for example) is
suppressed and only the beaconing pattern is displayed. If a
diagnostic frame-based test (such as
portLoopbackTest,
crossPortTest, or spinSilk) is executed, the two LED patterns are
interwoven. The diagnostic test flickers the LEDs green and the
beaconing mode runs the LEDs amber.
The
switchShow command can be used to display if the status of
blade beaconing mode is on or off.
