Ethernet Line Card Active LED States
The Active LEDs on the Ethernet Line Cards indicate that the operating software is loaded on the card and
that the card is ready for operation.
The line cards installed remain in ready mode until their corresponding packet processing card is activated
during configuration. While in ready mode, the Active LED is off. When the packet processing card is activated,
the line card installed in the upper-rear chassis slot behind the packet processing card is also activated. The
line card installed in the lower-rear chassis slot behind the packet processing card enters standby mode.
If the LED is not green, use the troubleshooting information in the table to diagnose the problem.

verify that the corresponding line card installed in the upper-rear
chassis slot is installed properly according to the instructions in
this document.
For example, if this LED is green for a line card in slot 33, verify

for
information on making the card active.
Ethernet Line Card Standby LED States
The Standby LEDs on the Ethernet Line Cards indicate that software is loaded on the cards and that they are
serving as redundant components.
The line cards remain in ready mode until their corresponding packet processing card is activated during
configuration. While in ready mode, the Active LED is off. After the packet processing card activated, the
line card installed in the upper-rear chassis slot behind the packet processing card is also activated. The line
card installed in the lower-rear chassis slot behind the packet processing card enters standby mode.
If the LED is not green, use the troubleshooting information in the table to diagnose the problem.
