The control LEDs of a secondary FortiController-5208 module will be
synchronized to the control LEDs of the primary because all the installed modules
use the same fabric backplane network to communicate. Each
FortiController-5208 module has its own base backplane network with which to
exchange data traffic with the worker modules so the data LEDs of each
FortiController-5208 module will indicate only its own communication.

Description
The control LEDs display the fabric backplane
connections of the FortiController-5208 module,
an optional secondary FortiController-5208 module,
and all the 5005 modules, over which management
communication is sent. LED 1 is for the
FortiController-5208 module's connection. LEDs 2
through 14 are for connections to the corresponding
slots in a 5050 or 5140. LEDs 15 and 16 are for
future use.
backplane connection.
The correct cable is connected to the gigabit SFP
interface.
The FortiController-5208 is ready to be hot-
swapped (removed from the chassis). If the IPM
light is blue and no other LEDs are lit the
FortiController-5208 module has lost power. See
"Inserting a FortiController-5208 module into a
chassis" on page 10
for more information.
The FortiController-5208 is changing from hot swap
to running mode or from running mode to hot swap.
Normal operation. The FortiController-5208 module
is in contact with the chassis backplane.
The correct cable is inserted into this interface and
the connected equipment has power.
The interface is connected at 1000 Mbps.
The interface is connected at 100 Mbps.
The interface is connected at 10 Mbps.
Protocol Description
Ethernet
Two 10 gigabit XFP interfaces that
can accept fiber or copper
transceivers. These interfaces
operate only at 10 Gbps. See
