Not on point, but an amusing quote nonetheless from
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/53.shtml
VTP
Another cause of inactive ports is when the VLAN they belong to disappears.
Each port in a switch belongs to a VLAN. If that VLAN is deleted, then the
port will become inactive. Some switches show a steady orange light on each
port where this has happened. If you come in to work one day and see
hundreds of orange lights, don't panic. It could be that all the ports
belong to the same VLAN and someone accidentally deleted the VLAN that the
ports belong to. .

Hey all, I have a quick question regarding a Catalyst 2900XL Switch.
All appears well, all the status LED's are green with the exception of two
of them. Coincidentally, those two ports are connected to the Uplink ports
of two Hubs. Now both hubs work fine, all connected devices work fine, a
"show int" on the switch show's both the ports with a Orange LED as UP and
the Line Protocol as being up. Physically all appears to be working. It just
bothers me that those two ports are Orange. I thought Orange only meant one
thing, NO GOOD. Just Curious if anyone else has experienced this.
Thanks for your time
