Color Description
LRE
2
Cyan (off) No LRE link present on the LRE port.
Green LRE link present on the LRE port. Port LED turns green in approximately
10 seconds after the LRE port detects a connection to a Cisco 575 LRE CPE.
Amber LRE port on the switch and WALL port on the Cisco 575 LRE CPE unable
to establish the rate defined by the assigned profile. Refer to the
“Troubleshooting LRE Port Configuration” section on page 9-4.
STAT Cyan (off) No Ethernet link present on the 10/100 switch port or on the remote CPE
Ethernet port.
Green Ethernet link present on the 10/100 switch port or on the remote CPE
Ethernet port.
Blinking
green
Activity on the 10/100 switch port or on the remote CPE Ethernet port. Port
is transmitting or receiving data.
Amber Link fault. Error frames can affect connectivity, and errors such as
excessive collisions, CRC errors, and alignment and jabber errors are
monitored for a link-fault indication.
10/100 switch port or remote CPE Ethernet port is not forwarding. Port was
disabled by management, by an address violation, or was blocked by STP.
Note After a port is reconfigured, the port LED can remain amber for
up to 30 seconds as STP checks the switch for possible loops.
Brown No link and port is administratively shut down.
DUPLX Cyan (off) 10/100 switch port or remote CPE Ethernet port is operating in half-duplex
mode.
Green 10/100 switch port or remote CPE Ethernet port is operating in full-duplex
mode.
SPEED Cyan (off) 10/100 switch port or remote CPE Ethernet port is operating at 10 Mbps.
Green 10/100 switch port or remote CPE Ethernet port is operating at 100 Mbps.
1. In STAT mode, the LRE ports reflect the Ethernet link between the remote CPE and Ethernet device, such as a PC. The
Ethernet link default settings on the LRE ports are different than those on the 10/100 ports. See Table 2-5.
2. In LRE mode, the 10/100 port LEDs continue to reflect Ethernet link status.
