## LED Parameter ### LED control
```
We've added the "realtek-leds.conf" in build directory,
with this you may change the leds to
"2: Allways On", "1: Normal" or "0: Allways Off" with placing the file in "/etc/modprobe.d/
Manual modprobe will override this file if option value also included at the command line, e.g., Thanks to @dkadioglu and others for a start on this.
$ sudo modprobe -r 8812au
$ sudo modprobe 8812au rtw_led_ctrl=1 #### You can now control LED behaviour statically by Makefile, for example:
```sh
CONFIG_LED_ENABLE = n
```
value can be y or n
#### statically by module parameter in /etc/modprobe.d/8812au.conf or wherever, for example:
```sh
options 8812au rtw_led_enable=0
```
value can be 0 or 1
#### or dynamically by writing to /proc/net/rtl8812au/$(your interface name)/led_enable, for example:
```sh
$ echo "0" > /proc/net/rtl8812au/$(your interface name)/led_enable
```
value can be 0 or 1
#### check current value:
```sh
$ cat /proc/net/rtl8812au/$(your interface name)/led_enable
```
