> · Power LED: glows solid green when power is supplied to the NetScreen-10/100.
> · Status LED: glows solid green when the NetScreen-10/100 is first powered up and the unit first performs diagnostics. Then the unit goes into a startup phase, which takes up to one minute to complete. During startup, the LED blinks orange, after which the LED blinks green. If an error is detected, then the LED illuminates red. The LED changes to yellow whenever the unit writes to the internal flash card.
> · PCMCIA Flash Card Slot: The NetScreen-10/100 supports a removable PCMCIA PC Card ATA compatible Flashdisk. Supported cards include the SanDisk 96-MB and 20-MB Flash card. The NetScreen device automatically detects the presence of a flashcard and records the Event Log to it.
> · Console Port: DB25 serial port connector for local configuration and administration.
> · Trusted Port: Connect the NetScreen-10/100 using a twisted pair cable with RJ45 connectors. The trusted port is a data circuit-terminating equipment (DCE) port. See the following chapter for cabling guidelines.
> · DMZ Port: Connect the NetScreen-10/100 using a twisted pair cable with RJ45 connectors. The DMZ port is a DCE port.
> · Untrusted Port: Connect the NetScreen-10/100 using a twisted pair cable with RJ45 connectors. The untrusted port is a data terminal equipment (DTE) port. See the following chapter for cabling guidelines.
> · Trusted, DMZ, and Untrusted Ethernet LEDs: Each Ethernet port has two link lights, or LEDs. The right LED indicates if the link is up (connected to an active device) and the left LED indicates network traffic activity. These LEDs differ for the NetScreen-10 and NetScreen-100. See Figure 4-2.
