Member ID Status Mode (ID) LED

The member ID status mode (ID) LEDs display the Stack ID or Switch Port Extender (SPX) port extender (PE)

Stack ID: If the switch is configured in traditional stacking mode, this LED displays the stack member ID of the unit within the stack.

  • The member ID LED displays green.
  • Port LEDs are used to display the stack ID from 1 to 12 of each member within the stack.

SPX PE ID: If the switch is configured in SPX mode, this LED displays the PE ID.

  • The member ID LED displays green.
  • Port LEDs are used to display the PE ID from 17 to 56+ of each PE member.
  • Two port LEDs are used to display the ID: Steady green for the first digit and steady amber for the second digit. For example, the LED for port 2 shows steady green and port 7 shows steady amber for PE ID 27. The LED for port 3 shows steady green for two seconds followed by steady amber for two seconds and continues to alternate green and amber for PE ID 33. The LED for port 4 shows steady green and port 10 shows steady amber for PE ID 40.
