Cycles user port LEDs.
SYNOPSIS
portledtest
[--slot slot_number]
[-ports itemlist]
[-npass count]
[-action value]
ceeportledtest
[--slot slot_number]
[-ports itemlist]
[-npass count]
[-action value]
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to exercise the user port LEDs in the current switch. When used without a slot or port
specifier, all ports are tested. For each port, the command cycles through the ON and OFF state by
setting the ATTN LEDs to green for the ON condition and unlighted for the OFF condition. The SPEED
LEDs are initially set to black before the test starts. The SPEED LEDs turn green while the test is
running.
portLedTest and ceePortLedTest are platform-specific versions of the same test. Use ceePortLedTest
on FCoE platforms only. Use fcipLedTest for GbE port testing on the Brocade 7800 and FX8-24. On all
other platforms, use portLedTest.
You must disable the current switch (using the switchDisable command) before running this command.
After the command completes, the ATTN LEDs flash amber, indicating that the command has finished
and exited. Enable the current switch (using the switchEnable command) to set the ATTN LEDs back to
black.
