3560 switchports light up together?

Ryan Fisher

I have a 3560G, and about five minutes ago (right before I start working on it of course) I noticed that int gi0/50's link light is dimly lit and is flashing the same as int gi0/49.  gi0/49 is set to be a routed interface, nothing special, and gi0/50 has nothing in it, not even a SFP.  The light is clearly not as bright as int 49, but it is flashing the same as it.  I've tried shutting down int 50, nothing affects it.  Any ideas?  Would a switch reload fix this?

interface GigabitEthernet0/49

I think your simply seing the light from the LED on port Gi0/49 through the clear plastic of the port Gi0/50.

   Sounds like you are just getting some light bleed thru

from the LED in port 49 .  I wouldn't worry about it .   Plug in a pc to port 50 and activate it and see if it goes full bright and then deactivate it .  If its blinking in  unison with 49 sounds like  just the LED light bleeding over inside the case to port 50 .

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, it's just that it all of a sudden started doing it.  Thanks for the replies, and I'll give that a try
