In the middle of a live VLAN readressing of a 200-node company, I encountered this gem. The ports just kept blinking on even after plugging out the cables. (HP aruba 24 port switch)
One turned off after a reboot.

So #5 is disconnected on the other end, right?
Yes, or the systems etc. Or the port is disabled if the switch has the ability.
Could've also just caught the photo in a flash of down activity depending. Still tho.
It's a gif and the LED is permanently off.
