You are right those modules aren't supported on that line card. You can try the unsupported modules command but it might not work and then your only options is new line card or GLC-SX-MM= modules. Quick question the 7962 IP phone has copper port or do you have the CIS version that is fiber? The unsupported command for third party modules in Cisco switches is type this first - no errdisable detect cause gbic-invalid Then type this second - service unsupported-transceiver Remove SFP module, shutdown/no shutdown the port, insert back the SFP module. Please let me know if this helped you.

under the GUI and the click on Port Setting then click on the port you are having problems on is Auto Negotiation checked for all three switches and you are using CAT5e or higher cable? I know these are dump/beginner questions but just have to start at the beginning. Then if you manually check 1000m and full does it work or do you get no link, but you have to set all three manually to this on the ports you want to use.

What line card & SUP are you using in your Catalyst 4506? WS-X4748-SFP-E WS-X4724-SFP-E WS-X4712-SFP-E GLC-GE-100FX 15.2(1)E WS-X4640-CSFP-E WS-X4624-SFP-E WS-X4612-SFP-E GLC-GE-100FX 15.1(1)SG

The 1602e isn't outdoor rated APs, but the antenna you would want to use for bridging and you have line of sight would be AIR-ANT2566P4W-R Qty1 per AP. Please remember the antennas need to be hight enough so you don't zap people in the head. Please refer to - http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/access_point/1600/quick/guide/ap1600getstart.pdf AIR-ANT2566P4W-R - http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/aironet-antennas-accessories/product_data_sheet09186a008008883b.html

No there isn't a place to change the time for email notification. Emails are sent when an alarm occurs that matches the categories and the severity levels you select. - http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/3-0/administrator/guide/PIAdminBook/config_server_settings.html#63370 I would work with TAC to see what the issue is, I don't believe Prime is at fault for the delay but I don't know your network.

You just need NX-OS 6.x and above from Table 1-1 - http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/mds9000/interoperability/matrix/intmatrx/Matrix1.html

Since the SF500's have two SFP ports and one combined RJ-45/SFP port, I should be able to link them together using the combined RJ-45/SFP ports. Is this correct? Yes, you use the TwinAx cables 1/3/5m only no 7 or 10m cables example SFP-H10GB-CU3M= Being the 2960 has 1G SFP ports, I should be able to link it to the SF500 stack - correct? Correct, Yes, you can use either RJ-45 or fiber cables just depends on the length you need to go. Please refer to the datasheets for the switch to see the supported modules. If you want to use the uplink ports on the 2960 and need copper, you have to buy GLC-T= then you can plug RJ-45 cable into it. On the SF500 it has combo ports so you can directly plug in RJ-45 cable. Now you don’t have to use the uplink port for outbound traffic you can use the access RJ-45 ports too. It’s up to you which way you want to. What model of GBIC should I use for the 2960 as I don't understand the differences? GLC-SX-MM / MMD or GLC-LH-SM / SMD? The ones you listed need fiber cable to go between switches, and the difference is the distance you can go. Please look at Table 1. SFP Port Cabling Specifications - http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/interfaces-modules/gigabit-ethernet-gbic-sfp-modules/product_data_sheet0900aecd8033f885.html What model of GBIC should I use for the SF500 to link the two (stack) together and to link to the 2960? MGBSX1, LH1, LX1, BX1...? To stack them please refer to answer on the first question. (TwinAx cable passive only) // To connect the 2960 and SF500 together over fiber depends on distance between, cooper cable is the cheapest. How about the fiber cables? What is the best/cheapest brand? Only 2ft long or shorter required. I use Belkin fiber cables but there are a lot of vendors out there.

Yes, that is correct.

When you select N2K-F40G-F10G when you do a configuration for Nexus 2300 and in the output you get FET10G & FET40G. So how do you connect them together because one is a 10Gbps and the other is 40Gbps, different cables and connectors right. So the question is if I have a parent switch of Nexus 5548UP/9372PX/9396PX all having SFP+ for access ports and the child switch is Nexus 2348TQ with QSFP uplinks. I selected N2K-F40G-F10G under the Nexus 2348TQ what else do I/they need? Answer: They would install the FET-40G in the uplinks of Nexus C2348 and then install the FET-10G to the parent switch. They would then have to buy a MPO breakout cable like - MPO to 4 x SFP LC for a third party vendor. The FET-10G is only supported in the uplink ports if it’s used with the CVR-QSFP-SFP10G as adapter. Notice that the C2348T, only has QSFP uplinks ports, so the FET-10G itself cannot be used without the adapter. This is an example of 40-Gbps Cabling Deployment Solutions with Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches - http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/products/collateral/switches/nexus-9000-series-switches/white-paper-c11-729384.pdf Example of MPO breakout cable - http://www.panduit.com/wcs/Satellite?c=Page&childpagename=Panduit_Global%2FPG_Layout&cid=1345564329011&packedargs=item_id%3DFXTHP5NLSQNF015%26locale%3Den_us&pagename=PG_Wrapper
