McDATA® Sphereon 3032 and 3232 Fabric Switches Installation and Service Manual

For a description of how to expand or collapse the active zone set list 
and an explanation of button functions at the bottom of the Zoning 
View, refer to the McDATA Enterprise Fabric Connectivity Manager User 
Manual (620-005001).

Port diagnostics are performed at the switch and Sphereon 

3032/3232 

Product Manager application. These diagnostics include:

•

Inspecting port light-emitting diodes (LEDs) at the switch.

•

Obtaining port degradation or failure information at the Product 
Manager application’s Hardware View.

•

Obtaining statistical performance information for ports at the 
Product Manager application’s Performance View.

•

Performing internal or external port loopback tests.

•

Performing channel wrap tests. The tests apply only to a switch 
configured for FICON management style.

To obtain port operational information at the switch, inspect the port 
LEDs. Amber and green LEDs adjacent to each port indicate 
operational status as follows:

— The green LED illuminates (or blinks if there is active traffic) 

and the amber LED extinguishes to indicate normal port 
operation.

— The amber LED illuminates and the green LED extinguishes to 

indicate a port failure.

— Both LEDs extinguish to indicate a port is operational but not 

communicating (no SFP installed, no cable attached, loss of 
light, port blocked, or link recovery in process).

— The amber LED flashes and the green LED illuminates (or 

blinks if there is active traffic) to indicate a beaconing is set for 
the port.

— The amber LED flashes and the green LED extinguishes to 

indicate a port is running online diagnostics, or beaconing is 
set and the port is not communicating (no SFP installed, no 
cable attached, loss of light, port blocked, or link recovery in 
process).
