Table 10: Fiber Port LEDs

Description

State

LED

Link is present.

Glows green

LINK ACT

Activity.

Flashes green

No link present.

Off

Connection is 100 Mbps.

Green

LINK SPD

Connection is 1 Gbps.

Yellow

Orange

If LINK ACT is on, the connection is 10 Mbps. If LINK ACT is
off, LINK SPD off indicates no link is present as well.

Off

Interface is not in bypass mode.

Green

BYP

Interface is in bypass mode.

Yellow

Interface is turned off (NICs off state).

NOTE:

For fiber interface ports, if failure or shutdown triggers NICs off state,

LINK ACT and LINK SPD LEDs remain lit.

Traffic Interface Features

Traffic interfaces are network interface cards (NICs). In the IDP Series configuration
abstraction, a pair of traffic interfaces is called a virtual router. For example, virtual router
vr1 comprises interface ports eth2 and eth3. For each virtual router, you use the Appliance
Configuration Manager (ACM) to configure the deployment mode (sniffer or transparent)
and bypass options (internal, external, or off). You also configure a global setting (affects
traffic flow through all interfaces) on how to handle Layer 2 packets. The following topics
describe these settings:

Deployment Mode on page 10

Layer 2 Bypass on page 10

Internal Bypass on page 10

External Bypass on page 12

For guidance on using ACM to configure virtual router settings, see the ACM online help.
