Setting the blade beacon mode
When beaconing mode is enabled, the port LEDs will flash amber in a running pattern from port 0 through
port 15 and back again. The pattern continues until the user turns it off. This can be used to locate a
particular blade.
To set the blade beacon mode on:
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
1. Enter the bladeBeacon command:
The
slotnumber
is the blade on which you want to enable beacon mode; this slot number must exist on
the logical switch. The value 1 turns beaconing mode on, and 0 turns beaconing mode off.
