The SANbox 5600 Series switch comes from the factory as an 8-, 12-, 16-, or
20-port switch, enabling ports 0–7, 0–11, 0–15, or 0–19 respectively. You can
upgrade the SANbox 5600 Series switch to enable additional ports up to the
20-port maximum through the purchase of a license key. Refer to ”Upgrading the

2.2.1.1
Port Logged-In LED (Green)
The Logged-in LED indicates the logged-in or initialization status of the connected
devices. After successful completion of the POST, the switch extinguishes all
Logged-In LEDs. Following a successful loop initialization or port login, the switch
illuminates the corresponding logged-in LED. This shows that the port is properly
connected and able to communicate with its attached devices. The Logged-In
LED remains illuminated as long as the port is initialized or logged in. If the port
connection is broken or an error occurs that disables the port, the Logged-In LED
will flash. Refer to ”Logged-In LED Indications” on page 5-7 for more information
about the Logged-In LED.
