Troubleshooting
From the FortiController-5208 front panel you can view the status of the module
LEDs to verify that the module is functioning normally. LEDs also indicate
connections and traffic for the front panel and backplane interfaces. You also
connect the FortiController-5208 module to your network through the front panel
XFP and SFP connections. The front panel also includes two RJ-45 serial console
ports for connecting to the FortiController-5208 CLI and an Ethernet RJ-45 port for
connecting to the CLI and GUI management interfaces over a network.

Description
The correct cable is connected to the 10 gigabit
XFP interface.
The STATUS LED is always off, even when the
FortiController-5208 module is starting or operating
normally.
The data LEDs display base backplane connections
of the FortiController-5208 module and the 5005
modules, over which the load-balanced traffic is
sent. LED 1 corresponds to the FortiController-5208
module's connection, LEDs 3 through 14 are for
connections to the corresponding slots in a 5050 or
5140 chassis. LEDs 15 and 16 are for the HA ports
D15/D16 on the front panel. Due to the organization
of the backplane, LED 2 will always be off, even if
an operating FortiController-5208 is in slot 2.
