Optical ATM Line Card Active LED States
The Active LED on the Optical (ATM) line card indicates that the operating software is loaded on the card and that the
card is ready for operation.
The line cards installed will remain in a ready mode until their corresponding packet processing card is made active via
configuration. While in ready mode the Active LED is off. After the packet processing card is made active, the line card
installed in the upper-rear chassis slot behind the packet processing card is also active. The line card installed in the
lower-rear chassis slot behind the packet processing card enters standby mode.
The possible states for this LED are described in the following table. If the LED is not green, use the troubleshooting
information in the table to diagnose the problem.

Troubleshooting
Green
Card is active
None needed for line cards installed in slots 17 through 23 and 26 through 32 after
configuration.
If green for line cards in slots 33 through 39 and 42 through 48, 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 that the line card in
slot 17 is installed properly.
None
Card in Ready Mode
OR
Card is not receiving power
OR
Card in Standby Mode
This is normal prior to configuration. Neither the Active or the Standby LED on the
card will be on.
Verify that the Run/Fail LED is green. If so, the card is receiving power and POST
test results are positive. If it is off, refer to Optical (ATM) Line Card Run-Fail LED
States for troubleshooting information.
Check the state of the Standby LED. If it is green, the card is in standby mode.
Standby LED States
The Standby LED on the Optical (ATM) line card indicates that software is loaded on the card, but that it is serving as a
redundant component.
The installed 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 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.
