Amber

Port admin state is 'Disabled', or the SFP is absent, or both.

Off

Port admin state is 'Enabled' and SFP is present, but interface is not connected.

Lane Link LEDs

The Lane Link LEDs indicate which of the break out lanes are being checked. Use the Lane Select Button to select what number of the break-out lane status will be shown in the port LED. If none of the Lane Link LEDs is lit, all four lanes are being checked.
