6500/720 support for 1000baseZX SFP

[ijdod]

When playing around with a 6513/sup720 config in the Dynamic Condiguration Tool, I selected a WS-X6724-SFP module, with varios SFP modules, a mix of SX, LH and ZX. When I reloaded the saved config in the tool today, it reported that the ZX SFP's were no longer supported for the 6724 module. Which SFP's are supported by the Sup720 SFP ports is unclear.

Now, as we're currently considering buying such a configuration, and ZX is a necessity for us, does anyone know if support for the ZX SFP's (GLC-ZX-SM) is forthcoming?

Our Cisco contact managed to find out that the latest CatOS release should support them, as well as a forthcoming MSFC IOS. It's not clear when the config tool will represent this :P.
