Both your ports are in down state and hence you are seeing the amber light. Are these connected to PSTN circuits? If these are, then you have them in down state. Layer1 is down. You dont need to bother about config this is layer1 issue(cabling related). If its a PSTN connection, speak to your provider.

Hi

No these two ports are not connected to PSTN lines, So getting amber always is normal ?

usually other FXO ports are not amber always while they not connected. !!!

Yes its normal if you have no circuit plugged into it.
