GLC-GE-100FX in Cat 9000 with NM-4G

Have anyone tested getting GLC-GE-100FX working on NM-4G in a Cat 9200? Have tried with ver 16.12.4 and 17.3.4b. 

In both cases show inventory looks a bit strange: No PID is read from the SFP

switch#show inventory
NAME: "c92xx Stack", DESCR: "c92xx Stack"
PID: C9200-24P , VID: V01 , SN: JAE2518079J

The switch recognize the SFp but it takes about 20sec before it's registered on the interface. Stick in a GLC-SX-MM and it's registered after 5sec 

The problem I have is that I never get link up. Tried with auto speed and duplex, auto speed and full duplex and speed 100 and full duplex. No link. No matter what is in the remote end (Cat2960x, C9200 or IE3200)

 

On a Cat 2960 one can insert the SFP withn auto speed and duplex and the link comes up half-duplex. Or set duplex to full and that works fine as well.

 

 

If I try the SFP model in a Cat 2960x it lists the SFP with pid.

C2960X# show inventory

Diff between interface on Cat 9200 and C2960X with the SFP inserted and the only command set is "duplex full"

# Cat9200

GigabitEthernet1/1/4 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect)
Hardware is Gigabit Ethernet, address is bcd2.95cd.301c (bia bcd2.95cd.301c)
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit/sec, DLY 10 usec,
reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255
Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set
Keepalive not set
Full-duplex, 100Mb/s, link type is force-up, media type is 100BaseFX SFP
input flow-control is on, output flow-control is unsupported

 

# Cat 2960X

GigabitEthernet1/0/25 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect)
Hardware is Gigabit Ethernet, address is 701f.53a6.7199 (bia 701f.53a6.7199)
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit/sec, DLY 100 usec,

Any ideas on port settings?

Just commenting in case anyone else has this issue. The matrix does show support for GLC-FE-100FX but has a note on it saying that they must be GLC-FE-FX be version 02 and not version 01. The output shown in Sokarlsson's has the VID as V01 so I expect that may be the issue. Did you resolve this, Sokarlsson?

 

Good catch, @Ric Beeching (Cisco).
