Activity LED
The Activity LED indicates that data is passing through the port. Each frame that
enters or leaves the port causes this LED to illuminate for 50 milliseconds. This
makes it possible to observe the transmission of a single frame. When extending
credits, an Activity LED for a donor port will reflect the traffic of the recipient port.
