Manage the LEDs
You can customize your visual environment by managing the color and activity of the
Power LED and many settings for the port LEDs (also referred to as Activity LEDs). The
LED settings do not affect the way in which traffic is switched.
In addition to the Power LED, you can manage either individual port LEDs or a group
of port LEDs simultaneously. You can also reset all port LEDs to default settings.
Note: To turn off all LEDs entirely (referred to as Stealth Mode), press the LED button
to the left of port 10 on the back of the switch (see Back Panel on page 10).
The switch functions with the following default color schemes, which you can customize:
•
Standard color scheme. In the Standard Preset mode (which is the default mode),
the switch uses a color scheme with a purple and dark blue color palette. The Power
LED is orange.
•
Gaming color scheme. In the Gaming Preset mode, the switch uses a color scheme
with a yellow and green color palette. The Power LED is green.
•
Streaming color scheme. In the Media Streaming Preset mode, the switch uses a
color scheme with a light blue color palette. The Power LED is light blue.
