Power Button
The main power button applies or removes power from the power supply to the server system. Turning off
system power with this button removes the main power but keeps standby power supplied to the system.
Therefore, you must unplug the system before servicing.
The power button features a backlit green LED that indicates power on.
Reset Button
Press the reset button for a hard reboot. It is located next to the power button.
LED Functions
Two LAN ports are located on the I/O backplane of the motherboard. Each Ethernet LAN port has two LEDs.
The yellow LED indicates activity, while the link LED may be green, amber, or off to indicate the speed of the
connections.
