The Ethernet indicator signals traffic on the wired LAN, or Ethernet infrastructure. This indicator is
normally green when an Ethernet cable is connected, and blinks green when a packet is received or
transmitted over the Ethernet infrastructure. The indicator is off when the Ethernet cable is not
connected.
The status indicator signals operational status. Steady green indicates that the access point is
associated with at least one wireless client. Blinking green indicates that the access point is
operating normally but is not associated with any wireless devices.
The radio indicator blinks green to indicate radio traffic activity. The light is normally off, but it
blinks green whenever a packet is received or transmitted over the access point's radio.
Figure 21-1 shows the indicators.
