In the middle of a live VLAN readressing of a 200-node company, I encountered this gem. The ports just kept blinking on even after plugging out the cables. (HP aruba 24 port switch)
One turned off after a reboot.

The lights are combined link/act, not separate link act. left for upper side, right for lower side. 2 and 4 are blinking, 1 and 3 (the empty ports) are not.
So #5 is disconnected on the other end, right?
Yes, or the systems etc. Or the port is disabled if the switch has the ability.
This guy networks.
The lights are even labeled…
client had 2 near identical switches, one had LEDs on each port, one had LEDs all on top, I was looking at each port wondering why they weren’t lighting up and thinking they were disabled in admin panel. took me a few minutes, I was an idiot that day.
