amber LED and one green LED are associated with
each port and indicate port status as follows:
The green LED illuminates (or blinks if there is active
traffic) and the amber LED extinguishes to indicate
normal port operation.
The amber LED illuminates and the green LED
extinguishes to indicate a port failure.
Both LEDs extinguish to indicate a port is
operational but not communicating with an N_Port
(no cable attached, loss of light, port blocked, or
link recovery in process).
The amber LED flashes and the green LED either
remains on, extinguishes, or flashes to indicate a
port is beaconing or running online diagnostics.
