HP Aruba 3810M Series

Example 1 Example of USER mode behavior
Assume you have a 4-member stack, in a ring topology, with member numbers 1, 2, 3 and 5.
Member 1 is the commander and member 3 is rebooting. In USER mode, the members will show
the following on their port LEDs:
Port 6-10 LEDsPort 5 LEDPort 4 LEDPort 3 LEDPort 2 LEDPort 1 LED

Looking at any member, you can see that there are 4 members defined in the stack configuration,
with member numbers 1, 2, 3, and 5 because these are the LEDs that are lit. The port 4 LED is
off, indicating that this member number is not defined in the stack.
On all members, Port 1 LED is fast flashing, indicating that member 1 is the commander of the
stack. Port 3 LED is on orange, indicating either that 3 is rebooting or not communicating because
of an unknown fault.
When looking at member 1, only Port 1 LED is fast flashing green. This indicates that this unit
is member 1 and is the commander.
When looking at member 2, the port 2 LED is slow flashing green, indicating that unit is member
number 2. Likewise on member 5, the port 5 LED is slow flashing green, indicating that unit is
member 5.
Member 3 will be going through the normal boot LED boot up sequence. When it has completed
booting and joined the stack, if you exit and re-enter USER mode, the members show the following
on their port LEDs:
