Chassis LEDs

Management Ports and Indicators

Several device-management indicators and connectors are available on the right hand side of the front panel of the Cisco Nexus 3550-T Programmable Switch Platform.

The various status indicators indicate the device status as follows:

Fan Status
  • Green if all fan modules are operating correctly.

  • Red if a fault is detected in one or more fan modules.

System Status
  • Green if the management software has no errors.

  • Red if the management software experiences an error.

Time sync Status
  • Currently not used.

Power Supply Status
  • Green if both power supply modules are operating correctly.

  • Red if a fault is detected in one or more power supply modules.

This table provides information about chassis LEDs for Cisco Nexus 3550-T switches.
