Connecting NX5548 with c3560 switch.

Hi,

 

I have an issue with setting up access connection between nexus5548 and c3560switch.

- both switches are connected with ethernet cable

- used gig0/3 port on 3560 with plugged in electrical SFP

- used TenGig port Eth1/15 on n5k with plugged inn electrical SFP and speed manually set to 1000Mb

- when this done c3560 shows port status "connected" while status on n5k port is "notconnected" ???

- tried connecting with cross cable (since manually changed speed might disable auto-mdix feature) - without success

 

Anyone experience same behavior? What am I doing wrong :) Note - I'm new for nexus...

 

N5k config:

N5k# sh run int eth1/15

!Command: show running-config interface Ethernet1/15
!Time: Tue Mar 10 13:28:38 2009

version 5.2(1)N1(4)

interface Ethernet1/15
  switchport access vlan 8
  speed 1000
  duplex full

N5k# sh int status | incl Eth1/15
Eth1/15       --                 notconnec 8         full    1000    SFP-1000BAS

 

c3560 config:

c3560#sh run int gi0/3
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 123 bytes
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/3
 description **[N5k]**
 switchport access vlan 8
 switchport mode access
end

c3560#sh int status | in Gi0/3
Gi0/3     **[N5k]** connected    8          a-full a-1000 10/100/1000BaseTX SFP

 

Appreciate all your comment and suggestions.

Thanks
