Notes
In current versions of the
FortiSwitch, the ACT light is always
off. Future functionality will use
this light to indicate state and
activity of the external USB card.
In a system with only one
management card the MC light
indicates the state of that card.
If the management card's FC light
is yellow, check the LEDs on the
individual fabric cards to identify
the source of the problem.
If the management card's LC light
is yellow, check the LEDs on the
individual line cards to identify the
source of the problem.
If the management card's PWR
light is yellow, check the LEDs on
the individual power supplies to
identify the source of the problem.
If the management card's FAN
light is off, check the LEDs on the
individual fan trays to identify the
source of the problem.
