LED patterns
The following table lists the port-side LEDs and the meaning of LED operation.
NOTE
For ports congured for FlexPort operation, LED patterns indicate operational status of GbE or Fibre Channel ports, depending
on type of transceiver installed and FlexPort conguration of port.

All user ports. O (no light) Port is in no shut state and no cable
or transceiver present, no link, 40
GbE port in SFP breakout mode
(also referred to as 4x10 GbE
breakout mode) has no cable, or
