10G Module on Switch 3750 stacked

FayezIllariyeh

Level 1

Hello, 

I have two stacked 3750 switches, each with a 10G module. The stack keeps generating the following log:
"%PLATFORM_SM10G-6-LINK_UP: The FRULink 10G Service Module (C3KX-SM-10G) communication has been established."
I’m not sure which switch the issue is on, the first or the second.

@FayezIllariyeh This log message is informational and simply indicates that the 10G module (C3KX-SM-10G) has established communication. It does not point to an issue but rather confirms that the module is up. Since you have a stack of two 3750 switches, you can check which switch has the module installed using the command:

show inventory

or

show switch

Look for the module under each switch in the stack. If you suspect any issues, you can also check the module's status with:

show platform sm10g

If the log appears frequently or unexpectedly, ensure both modules are properly seated and running compatible firmware.

Is the C3KX-SM-10G securely installed? 

I mean, I have seen people install the C3KX-SM-10G but the mounting screws are left dangling.  Are the C3KX-SM-10G mounting screws secure?

The message seems to not be a problem, Just a warning. 

  C3KX-SM-10G is a service module not network module. Are you using some special service on this switch? 

 

Error Message    PLATFORM_SM10G-6-LINK_UP: The FRULink 10G Service Module (C3KX-SM-10G) 
communication has been established.

Explanation    Communication is established with the FRULink 10G service module.

Recommended Action    No actions is required.

It is more accurate for me to say that there are two messages appearing on syslog. The first one is:

%PLATFORM_SM10G-3-NO_RESPONSE: The FRULink 10G Service Module (C3KX-SM-10G) is not responding.

And the second one comes immediately after:

%PLATFORM_SM10G-6-LINK_UP: The FRULink 10G Service Module (C3KX-SM-10G) communication has been established.

I do not understand the repeated occurrence of these messages. I am using two Point-Point Fiber on Switch 1 Module and two point-point Fiber on Switch 2 Module.

Are you suggesting that the service (link availability) is disconnecting and reconnecting, and this is not a physically or hardware Module itself issue? There are Point-Point services on both switches, but how can I determine which specific service is disconnecting and reconnecting at the same time? How can I identify which switch is causing the issue, the first or the second one?

What firmware is the switch stack on?

Is the C3KX-SM-10G securely installed?
