Hello, we have a new cisco catalyst switch with SFPs. When inserting the SFPs we receive the message and the port doesbad crc notbad crc come up.
%GBIC_SECURITY_CRYPT-4-VN_DATA_CRC_ERROR: GBIC in .... has bad crc
SFPs are from Cisco, too -> mgbsx1
We read a lot about the error and the two possible commands which do not slove our problem:
service unsupported-transceiver --> is not working -> output incorrect command
no errdisable detect cause gbic-invalid --> is succesfull but does not change the situation
Any recommendations?
Best regards

Try with a different optical module.
What firmware is the switch running on?

When the port is in the down state the issue is indeed no longer cosmetic use, this app to find compatible sfp's for your switch-model.

I have the same problem. The switch does not work even with SFPs from the compatibility matrix.
