Cisco 7200 VXR SFP Error :(

[ahmad82pkn]

Hi i just installed SFP module in Cisco VXR 7204  PA-POS-2OC3 port adapter

it detected the module fine, but when i enable the POS interface

i get following error.

what to do?

Mar  7 17:30:31: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface POS1/1, changed state to up

Interface POS1/1

dma mode : push

Hardware is Packet over SONET (hwidb=0x40D0330)

fastsend            = 0x0058BBD0, turbofs    = 0x053C7F30

multicast fs        = 0x00000000

SFP security failure

Before i enabled the interface i could see

Interface POS1/1

dma mode : push

Hardware is Packet over SONET (hwidb=0x40D0330)

fastsend            = 0x0058BBD0, turbofs    = 0x05889A68

multicast fs        = 0x00000000

SFP is TRPD03I1AAYS-FJ OC3 SM-IR

any suggestion? is this bad SFP? do i need to buy newone? or if i can fix it?

What kind of SFP is this?

SM-IR

SFP is TRPD03I1AAYS-FJ OC3 SM-IR

These messages generally come when a 3rd party SFP is used which Cisco device is not able to validate using its CRC present in EEPROM.

you can try the following commands but keep in mind that a lot of times these commands did not make much difference:

switch(config)# service unsupported-transceiver

switch(config)# no errdisable detect cause gbic-invalid

try and let us know if they work for you

Both commands not recognized , may be my IOS is old.

c7200p-ik91s-mz.

i am asking vendor to send me new module, lets see if it helps.

i am asking vendor to send me new module, lets see if it helps.

Tell the vendor to RE-FLASH the IDPROM for Cisco.

Actually the SFP i was using were old from my inventory, i dont know from where i got that.

New one are working fine so i am back on track. here is what my new SFP shows .

Interface POS1/1

dma mode : push

Hardware is Packet over SONET (hwidb=0x40D0330)

fastsend            = 0x0058BBD0, turbofs    = 0x05889A68

multicast fs        = 0x00000000

SFP is SFP-OC3-IR1-GT OC3 SM-IR

Thank you everyone for your inputs:)
