LEDs on the Front Panel

The LEDs are an important tool for hardware event notification and troubleshooting.

Power Status LED

The LED shows the power status.


LED Behavior	Description	Action Required
Steady green	The Orchestrator is up and running normally.	None.
Flashing green (~1 Hz)	The Orchestrator is booting up.	Wait for up to five minutes for the end of the booting process.
Flashing blue (~1 Hz)	The Orchestrator is in the standby mode. (Waits for the power up command.)	Power on the Orchestrator in one of these ways: Press the power button on the rear panel. Connect to the LOM Card and power on the appliance.
Steady off	The Orchestrator is powered off.	None.

Storage Status LED

The LED shows the storage status.


LED Behavior	Description	Action Required
Steady green Flashing green (~1 Hz)	There is read/write activity.	None.
Steady off	There is no read/write activity.	None.

PSU Status LED

The LED shows the health of the Power Supply Units.


LED Behavior	Description	Action Required
Steady green	Both Power Supply Units are operating normally.	None.
Steady amber	One of the Power Supply Units has a fault or is disconnected.	Make sure there is the power. Make sure the power cable is plugged in to the PSU. If the problem persists, replace the faulty PSU. Until you get the replacement PSU, disconnect the power cable from the faulty PSU.
Steady off	There is no power / no status	None.

Alert LED

The LED shows the overall system status.


LED Behavior	Description	Action Required
Steady red	There is active system fault.	Contact Check Point Support.
Steady off	There is no fault.	None.

Location LED

The LED shows the active location beacon - it helps identify the appliance in the rack.

The same beacon LED appears on the rear panel. See Rear Panel of MHO-200.


LED Behavior	Description	Action Required
Flashing blue (~1 Hz)	An administrator activated the location beacon in one of these ways: In the Gaia OS. Pressed the location beacon button on the rear panel.	None. Use the same ways to deactivate the location beacon LED.
Steady off	The location beacon is not active.	None.

Fan Status LED

The LED shows the health of the Fan Units.


LED Behavior	Description	Action Required
Steady red	At least one of the Fan Units has a fault.	Replace the faulty fan unit.
Steady off	All Fan Units are operating normally.	None.

Split Port LEDs

You can connect a 1-to-4 breakout cable to a physical port and get 4 logical ports in one physical port - see Splitting the Ports with Breakout Cables.

The LEDs show the selected LED indication mode when a Breakout cable is connected to at least one physical port and at least one port works in the split mode.

Note:

To move between the LED indication modes, press the selection button for 2 seconds and wait for 2 seconds before pressing it again.
Each physical port has two LEDs:
- The top LED shows the link status.
- The bottom LED shows the split status - whether this port is configured to work in the split mode.

When you connect a breakout cable to a physical port:

You press the selection button on the left of these top LEDs to show the activity of the Split port 1, Split port 2, Split port 3, or Split port 4.
The LED near each physical port shows the current activity in the corresponding port.


Indication Mode	Split Port LEDs	Description
	All Split LEDs are off	No breakout cables are connected to any of the physical ports.
/1	Only the first LED from the left is lit (/1)	The LED on the physical port shows the state of the first split port of the physical port. Example: If you connect a breakout cable to port 8 (interface `eth1-29`), then in this LED indication mode /1, the port LED 8 shows the state of the interface `eth1-29` (`Port 1/8/1`).
/2	Only the second LED from the left is lit (/2)	The LED on the physical port shows the state of the second split port of the physical port. Example: If you connect a breakout cable to port 8 (interface `eth1-29`), then in this LED indication mode /2, the port LED 8 shows the state of the interface `eth1-30` (`Port 1/8/2`).
/3	Only the third LED from the left is lit (/3)	The LED on the physical port shows the state of the third split port of the physical port. Example: If you connect a breakout cable to port 8 (interface `eth1-29`), then in this LED indication mode /3, the port LED 8 shows the state of the interface `eth1-31` (`Port 1/8/3`).
/4	Only the fourth LED from the left is lit (/4)	The LED on the physical port shows the state of the fourth split port of the physical port. Example: If you connect a breakout cable to port 8 (interface `eth1-29`), then in this LED indication mode /4, the port LED 8 shows the state of the interface `eth1-32` (`Port 1/8/4`).

Behavior of the Split Mode LED (bottom LED) on the Physical Port:


LED Behavior	Port State	Action Required
Off	Link is down.	Check the breakout cable.
Steady green	Link is up in the corresponding split port, but the traffic is not flowing in that split port.	None.
Flashing green	Link is up in the corresponding split port, and the traffic is flowing in that split port.	None.
Flashing amber	A problem with the link in the corresponding split port.	Check the breakout cable, and replace if needed.
