Link fault. Error frames can affect connectivity, and errors such as excessive collisions, CRC errors, and alignment and
jabber errors are monitored for a link-fault indication (RJ45 connection only).
Solid amber Port is not forwarding. Port was disabled by management, an address violation, or spanning tree violation.
After a port is reconfigured, the port status indicator can remain amber for up to 30 seconds while spanning tree checks
the network for possible loops.
