With a Cisco IE 2000 switch, what does a power status LED indicate when it is solid green?

Question

Options

• APower is present on the associated circuit and the system is operating normally.
• BPower is present on the associated circuit, but there is no correlation to whether the system is
• CThe system is operating normally, but power is not necessarily present on the associated circuit.
• DPower is not present on the associated circuit and the power supply alarm is configured.
• EThe power status LED does not show solid green.

• A
  91% (29)
• D
  3% (1)
• E
  6% (2)

Explanation

On the Cisco IE 2000, a solid green power status LED confirms two things simultaneously: power is present on the circuit and the system is operating normally - making A the complete, accurate answer. Option B is wrong because it incorrectly severs the link between LED state and system operation; the solid green definitively indicates normal operation, not just power presence. Option C inverts the logic - solid green always means power IS present, not just that the system is running. Option D describes an alarm/fault condition, not a healthy solid green state. Option E is simply false; solid green is a documented, valid state for this LED.

Memory tip: Think of solid green as a "double thumbs-up" - both power and system health must be true together. If either were uncertain or missing, the LED would show a different color or behavior (amber for fault, off for no power).
