LED Descriptions

The front panels of the FS517TS and FS524S Switches have LEDs that provide a
quick and accurate display of port speed, activity, collisions, duplex mode, as well as
activity between stacked switches. Table 2-1 summarizes the LEDs on the FS517TS
and FS524S Switches. A detailed description of the LEDs follows the table.
