What is indicated by an orange Power Management LED?

An orange Power Management LED typically indicates that the supervisor engine is actively monitoring power. This state suggests that the system is in a power management mode, where it is assessing the power levels and the status of various components. This could be during normal system operation when adjustments are being made to optimize energy consumption or monitor the health of power components.

The LED status provides vital feedback regarding the operational state of the device. In contrast, a green LED would usually indicate that the system is operational and running normally without any issues. An orange LED, while indicating monitoring, signifies that the system is not just functioning but is also in a state of vigilance concerning power management, which is crucial for maintaining performance and reliability.

Additionally, conditions indicating that the supervisor engine is booting or malfunctioning would typically present with different status indicators, typically not signified by the power management LED specifically. Hence, orange reflects ongoing monitoring rather than an operational, booting, or error state.
