Does Lip F8 received mean that the attached device must be configured as a loop device?

Hi Brendan,
Maybe,
When the interface is up, use "show interface ..." and look for port mode = FL. This means the attached device is a loop device.
If the interface is configured as switchport mode auto or FX, it tries to come up as loop first.
We sometimes see Lip F8 Rcvd as a symtom of congestion, or a bad cable/HBA/SFP.
Regards,
David
