Problem Description
All S6520X-SI port indicators are yellow and normally lit, are they faulty?
Solution
There are two modes for port indicators: port mode indicators and port status indicators. Port mode indicators have two modes: rate mode (port mode indicator is solid green) and IRF mode (port mode indicator flashes yellow). In IRF mode, the port status indicator is used to display the IRF member number.
When the port mode is in rate mode, the port status indicator will display in different colors. The specific meanings of the indicator lights can be found in the device's hardware introduction manual. The example below is just one possibility: a solid yellow light does not indicate a fault, but rather a lower rate.

Description |
|
Steady green (rate mode) |
Steady green |
A link is present on the port and the port is operating at 5 Gbps. |
|
Flashing green |
The port is sending or receiving data at 5 Gbps. |
|
|
Steady yellow |
A link is present on the port and the port is operating at 1 or 2.5 Gbps, or 100 Mbps. |
|
|
Flashing yellow |
The port is sending or receiving data at 1 or 2.5 Gbps, or 100 Mbps. |
|
|
Off |
No link is present on the port. |
|
|
Flashing yellow (IRF mode) |
Steady green |
The port status LEDs on the switch indicate the IRF member IDs of the switch. For example, if the LEDs for ports 1 to 5 are steady green and the other port LEDs are off, the IRF member ID of the switch is 5. |
