UTILIZATION 
Represents the percent bandwidth consumed on the local 
network:
•
Green (blinking): 0% to 50%. 
•
Amber (blinking): 51% to 89%. 
•
Red (blinking): 90% to 100%. 
COLLISION 
Amber (blinking): indicates that collisions have been 
detected by the instrument on the local network. The more 
collisions detected, the faster the LED blinks. 
ERROR 
Red (blinking): indicates that errors have been detected on 
the local network segment. Possible errors include the 
following:
•
Bad FCS: a packet that has an invalid checksum.
•
Undersized packet: a packet that has fewer than 64 
bytes. 
•
Oversized packet: a packet that has more than 1518 
bytes.
•
Jabber: a packet that has more than 1518 bytes and 
also has an invalid checksum.
•
Ghost: energy on a cable that appears to be a real 
frame but the frame does not have a valid start-frame 
delimiter.
TRANSMIT 
Green (blinking): indicates the instrument is transmitting 
packets. Note that the more transmit activity, the faster the 
LED blinks.
