I'm looking at an issue on our Nexus 5548, where a 10G dark fiber link was encountering interface errors. After changing SFPs, the switch now logs "hardware type changed to No-Transceiver" for any port we configure and place the interface into. We've tried different trancsievers and cables. The same brand of transceiver has been working fine for many months now previously, and we're not seeing any SFP validation errors. Any pointers welcome.
Config for the port is a simple trunk.
