I have noticed these errors on both Cat9500 we have upgraded from cat9k_iosxe.16.11.01.SPA.bin to a new IOS.

Any ideas? did not have these errors before.

Try cleaning or replacing the fiber as the SFP is having low RX ( receive ) power.

If not seen before , usually then it's a software bug.

Hello @broow ,

Is it just a single switchport that complains about RX power? If so, try replacing the cable and see if that makes a difference.

If you are getting the same alert for multiple switchport, then it would be a software bug like @marce1000 pointed out.
