Abstract
An apparatus is configured for testing a light emitting diode interface. The apparatus includes an integrated network device having a configuration register and logic for generating LED outputs based on detected network events and stored configuration register values. A light emitting diode is associated with the register. A processor is configured to send a signal to the integrated network device to set the configuration register to cause operation of the light emitting diode independent of network events. Hence, a light emitting diode interface of an integrated network device such as a network switch can be tested without sending data packets to the network device.
