Nexus 7009 N7K-M2206FQ-23L 40GigE Port Configuration Problem

[MANFRED LIEBCHEN]

Hi,

I am experiencing a strange behaviour in configuring a 40GigE Link between two Nexus 7009 Eth6/1 and Eth9/2; both sides have a

N7K-M2206FQ-23L Module; I am using a QSFP-40GE-LR4 Optic on both sides. The Operting system is 6.2(6) on both sides.

After configuring the Interfaces as a Layer3 Interface and a no shutdown I get the message

Ethernet6/1 is down (Administratively down)
admin state is down, Dedicated Interface

So what is going wrong ?

Thanks in advance

Manfred

can you please share the config

Hi,

After connecting the cable to both ports, do you see green lights on the ports?

Do the interfaces go to up and up mode at all?
