If the entire port icon is blue, the port is buffer-limited. A port is operating in buffer-limited mode when
the number of buffers allocated to the port is less than the number of buffers needed by the port to
utilize the port at full bandwidth.
If a group of port icons is gray (unmonitored), those ports are not licensed.

status.
