The FortiGate-5001SX module ships with two RAM DIMMs installed on the
FortiGate-5001SX circuit board. You should confirm that the RAM DIMMs are
installed correctly before inserting the FortiGate-5001SX module into a chassis.
From the FortiGate-5001SX font panel you can view the status of the front panel
LEDs to verify that the module is functioning normally. You also connect the
FortiGate-5001SX module to your network through the front panel ethernet
connections. The front panel also includes the RS-232 console port for connecting
to the FortiOS CLI and a USB port. The USB port can be used with a Fortinet USB
key. For information about using the FortiUSB key, see the
Firmware and FortiUSB Guide.
Table 7 lists and describes the FortiGate-5001SX module LEDs.

LED State Description
PWR Green The FortiGate-5001SX module is powered on.
ACC Off or The ACC LED flashes red when the FortiGate-5001SX
Flashing module accesses the FortiOS flash disk. The FortiOS
red flash disk stores the current FortiOS firmware build and
configuration files. The system accesses the flash disk
when starting up, during a firmware upgrade, or when
an administrator is using the CLI or GUI to change the
FortiOS configuration. Under normal operating
conditions this LED flashes occasionally, but is mostly
off.
STA Green Normal operation.
Red The FortiGate-5001SX is starting or a fault condition
exists.
IPM Blue The FortiGate-5001SX is ready to be hot-swapped
(removed from the chassis). If the IPM light is blue and
no other LEDs are lit the FortiGate-5001SX module has
lost power, possibly because of a loose or incorrectly
aligned left extraction lever.
Flashing The FortiGate-5001SX is changing from hot swap to
Blue running mode or from running mode to hot swap.
Off Normal operation. The FortiGate-5001SX module is in
contact with the chassis backplane.
1, 2, 3, 4 Green The correct cable is connected to the gigabit SFP
interface.
Flashing Network activity at the gigabit SFP interface.
5, 6, Link Green The correct cable is inserted into this interface and the
connected equipment has power.
7, 8 LED
Flashing Network activity at this interface.
Speed Green The interface is connected at 1000 Mbps.
LED
Amber The interface is connected at 100 Mbps.
Unlit The interface is connected at 10 Mbps.
