Status

Description

CPU Card (N9K-C9400-SUP-A)

BCN

Blinking (blue)

The operator has activated this LED to identify this switch in the chassis.

Off

This module is not being identified.

STS

Solid on (green)

All diagnostics pass. The module is operational.

Blinking (amber)

The module is booting up.

The module is not receiving power.

On (amber)

Temperature exceeds the minor alarm threshold.

Solid on (red)

Temperature exceeds the major alarm threshold.

ENV

Solid on (green)

Off

Time core clock synchronization is disabled.

TIMING

Solid on (green)

Synchronization of the time and phase to external interface. The external interface could be (GPS, FP)

Solid on (amber)

Freerun/holdover- Time core is in freerun or holdover mode.

Off

Time core clock synchronization is disabled.

GPS

Solid (green)

GPS interface provisioned and ports are turned on. ToD, 1PPS, 10MHz are all valid.

Off

Either the interface is not provisioned, or the ports are not turned on. ToD, 1PPS, 10MHz are not valid.

  2. The module is not fully inserted.

  3. The diagnostic test has failed.

Blinking (amber)

  1. This module has just been powered on, and the module is resetting.

  2. The module is resetting and both ejector levers are out.

  3. The module has been inserted during the initialization process (transition state).

  4. The module could not power up because of insufficient power.

  5. An over-temperature condition has occurred. A major temperature threshold has been exceeded.

Off

This module is not receiving power.

BCN

Blinking (blue)

The operator has activated this LED to identify this module in the chassis.

Off

This module is not being identified

Port

Solid on (green)
