Chapter 4: Getting to Know the Router
The Front Panel
The Router’s LEDs are located on the front panel of the Router.
LEDs
Power Green. The Power LED lights up when the Router is powered on. If the LED is flashing,
the Router is running a diagnostic test.
Diag Red. The Diag LED lights up when the system is not ready. The LED goes off when the
system is ready. The Diag LED blinks during Firmware upgrades.
IPS Green. The IPS LED lights up when the IPS function is enabled. If the LED is off, then IPS
functions are disabled. If the IPS LED is flashing green, then an external attack has
been detected. If the IPS LED is flashing red, an internal attack has been detected.
Internet Green. The Internet LED lights up the appropriate LED depending upon the speed of the
device attached to the Internet port. If the Router is connected to a cable or DSL
modem, typically the 10 LED will be the only LED lit up. Flashing indicates activity.
1-4 (Ethernet) Green. For each port, there are three LEDs. If the corresponding LED is continuously lit,
the Router is connected to a device at the speed indicated through the corresponding
port (1, 2, 3, or 4). If the LED is flashing, the Router is actively sending or receiving data
over that port.
