When the switch is powered on, it performs its diagnostic self test. The entiredownload, initialization, and self test process can take up to 2
minutes for afully loaded chassis, depending on the number and type of modules installedin the switch.
LED Behavior:
During the self test:
Initially, Power and Fault, and all the switch chassis LEDs are ON. Then, after approximately 30 seconds, all the module LEDs go
ON as the modules receive power and code is downloaded to them, the Fault LED goes off,and the chassis LEDs go off except
Power, Self Test, Fan Status, and PowerStatus.
When the download of code to the modules is completed, the module LEDs go off. User may see each port LED go ON briefly, in
sequence, as theport is tested.
For the duration of the self test, the Self Test LED stays ON.
When the self test completes successfully:
The Power LED stays on, and the Status LEDs on the switch chassis stay on for the devices installed: one for each switch module
installed, one for each power supply installed, and one for all the fans.
The Fault and Self Test LEDs are off.
The port LEDs on the switch modules go into their normal operational mode:
If the ports are connected to active network devices, the Link LEDsstay on and the Mode LEDs behave according to the mode
selected.In the default mode (Activity), the Mode LEDs should flicker showing network activity on the port.
If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the LED swill stay off.
