Is the channel open or inactive? That will tell you whether the peer is up or down.

I don't have this exact wording in my rtl.. And the format you posted is funky but the channel seems inactive.

In my RTL I have green dot for active channels and grey dot for inactive channels.

To be honest not much you can do if the remote peer is offline. Try contacting them... At some point you may have to force close the channel.

Force close is a standard part of lightning. Just more expensive and slower than normal (cooperative) close.
