Ethernet Line Card Active LED States
The Active LEDs on the Ethernet Line Cards indicate that the operating software is loaded on the card and
that the card is ready for operation.
The line cards installed remain in ready mode until their corresponding packet processing card is activated
during configuration. While in ready mode, the Active LED is off. When the packet processing card is activated,
the line card installed in the upper-rear chassis slot behind the packet processing card is also activated. The
line card installed in the lower-rear chassis slot behind the packet processing card enters standby mode.
If the LED is not green, use the troubleshooting information in the table to diagnose the problem.
