3.1.2 Ethernet, SFP, and PoE Port State

The following figure shows the front panel of a unit.

Ethernet Link LED image provides a visual indication each time the Ethernet port is enabled and establishes a connection. The LED reflects whether the port is in an enabled or disabled state. Hovering over the Link LED with the mouse provides information on the current link state. Additionally, clicking on the Link LED reveals more detailed information about network traffic on the respective port. PoE LED images report if power is being applied to the PD device. Meanwhile, Ethernet RJ45 images report if PoE is enabled or disabled, and various possible PoE errors.

The following table lists the Ethernet link LED images and their descriptions.

Table 3-1. Ethernet-Link LED Images

Ethernet Link LED Images	Description
	The Ethernet link is ON
	The Ethernet link is OFF
	The Ethernet link is disabled
	PoE is enabled (regardless of power)
	PoE is disabled
	PoE power applied to PoE-PD device
	No PoE power is applied to the PoE-PD device
	The SFP Ethernet port is enabled
	The SFP Ethernet port is disabled

The following table lists several possible PoE fault reports that might be present in the PoE ports.

Table 3-2. PoE Fault States

PoE Fault States LED Images	Description
	Fail to communicate with the PoE controller
	Fail to power PD. Insufficient free power (W)
	PoE fault—Fail to power PD
	PoE overload—PD power consumption exceeded the maximum limit

The following table lists the additional information which can be accessed by hovering the mouse over LED, RJ45, and SFP images
