Tippingpoint S6100N port health "yellow alarm"

[Peter Haddad]

I've got the above condition showing on my SMS devices -> Events -> Port Health ->Historical Graphs page showing. I've searched around for the definition of yellow alarm and can't find anything. I'm suspecting that it is due to the fact that this port is currently not passing any traffic, its a backup link that has link up, but hasn't been configured to pass any VLANs yet.  Can anyone confirm this or offer up an alternative explanation?

thanks,

Peter

The ports will show yellow when nothing is plugged into those interfaces.  It will also show yellow if there is an issue on that port like a bad cable.
