Interpreting LEDs

Table 2 describes the LEDs for the Second Ethernet adapter module, located to the

left of the connector (refer to Figure 1 or Figure 2).

These LEDs will blink on and off during diagnostic testing, but they will not stay

on to indicate data transfer until you have configured the Ethernet interface.

Table 2. Second Ethernet Interface Adapter Module LEDs

LED Meaning

TX (Transmit) Lights when the AN/ANH is transmitting data over the network.

RX (Receive) Lights when the AN/ANH is receiving data from the network.

CL (Collision) Lights when the AN/ANH detects a collision on the network.
