LED indicators cannot be lit up even if there are cables connecting to the related ports on EX2300-48MP, EX3400-24T and EX2300-24MP platforms. This issue can be found on several JUNOS versions. It cannot be detected with the command, 'show chassis led' on EX2300-48MP or EX2300-24MP because the command is not supported on these switches.
'show chassis led'
First, the following log messages are continuously recorded in the " messages " file whether the ports in the log are up or down.

Second, the physical LED indicators are out even when there are cables plugged into the ports. The picture below is an example:
There is no functional impact per PR1361739 . The switch works as expected even with no LED indicators lighting up. However, this is fixed-in JUNOS versions 19.2R2 and 19.1R2 per PR1428703 .
NOTE: PR1428703 is still open, so the fixed versions may be different when investigation is completed.
