Packet Processing Card Active LED States
The Active LED on a packet processing card indicates that the software is loaded on the card and that the card is ready
for operation. When the system first boots up, all installed packet processing cards are booted into standby mode. The
system must then be configured as to which packet processing cards should serve as redundant components (remain in
standby mode) and which should function as active components.
