Hi,

we have the same problem, did you solved?

After a reboot 4 port have problems, so we don't know about the funcionality of all the ports. Are all the 48 ports usable? If not, what are the unusable ports?

Thanks

Hi Andrea,

Can you please elaborate the status of those 4 ports,

I guess though our license are only for 24 Port 10 G ,We can use the rest of the ports as 1 gig.

Also we tried connecting Links on Port 1 and Port 48 to see any issues all seemed working fine.

My only concerns are which 24 Ports are applicable are for 10G.

Warm Regards,

Dhanesh

Hello Dhanesh,

thanks for your reply.

We have 2 3548 licensed exactly as your Nexus.

After a reboot of the two Nexus the first 4 ports (of the two) had problems (no input packets, only ouput packets, so unusable). There was connected devices with GLC-T, so they worked at 1 G, not 10G.

We opened a TAC Case about this and, after remote session and many analysis, the engineer decided to replace the two devices.

Despite this I have still some doubt.

I found the discussion below and I post some logs of one of the Nexus, we use the 10 G not in a contiguous way.

Thanks and regards
