For an inline interface: the light is on when the interface has activity. If dark, there is no activity.

For a passive interface: the light is non-functional.

Bottom (link)

For an inline or passive interface: the light is on when the interface has link. If dark, there is no link.

Features
Description

VGA port
USB port

Allows you to attach a monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the device to establish a direct workstation-to-appliance connection.

10/100/1000 Ethernet management interface

Provides for an out-of-band management network connection. The management interface is used for maintenance and configuration purposed only and is not intended to carry service traffic.

System ID LED

Helps identify a system installed in a high-density rack with other similar systems. The blue light indicates that the ID button is pressed.

Grounding studs

Allows you to connect the appliance to the Common Bonding Network. See the Power Requirements for Firepower 7000 Series Devices for more information.

Redundant power supplies

Provides power to the device through an AC power source. Looking at the rear of the chassis, power supply #1 is on the left and power supply #2 is on the right.

Power supply LEDs

Indicates the status of the power supply. See Firepower 7115, 7125, and AMP7150 Power Supply LED.

The 10/100/1000 management interface is located on the rear of the appliance. The following table describes the LEDs associated with the management interface.

LED
Description

Left (activity)

Indicates activity on the port:

  • A blinking light indicates activity.
  • No light indicates there is no activity.

Right (link)

Indicates whether the link is up:

  • A light indicates the link is up.
  • No light indicates there is no link.

The power supply modules are located on the rear of the appliance. The following table describes the LED associated with the power supply.

LED
Description

Off

The power cord is not plugged in.

Red

No power supplied to this module.

or

A power supply critical event, such as module failure, a blown fuse, or a fan failure; the power supply shuts down.

Blinking red

A power supply warning event, such as high temperature or a slow fan; the power supply continues to operate.

Blinking green

AC input is present; volts on standby, the power supply is switched off.

Green

The power supply is plugged in and on.
