ASR9000v Satellite unable to bring up 1 GigaBitEthernet link to HP5412 switch - Layer 1 SFP issue?

routerjock · ‎07-08-2015

We have a customer connected with an HP5412 to one of our legacy CAT6509 switches.

We are trying to move the uplink on the HP5412 to a SAT 9000V port on our ASR9006. We cannot get the link to come up. The fibers test good. On the HP side, they are using the same HP SFP transceivers which work on the connection to the CAT6509.

There are new SFP transceivers on the SAT9000V side of the link.

If we back out the connector slightly the link comes up briefly on the HP. It almost seems like the light is "too hot" coming into the HP.

We get nothing on the SAT side. It appears the received light is too low.

Are there commands in the IOS-XR interface configuration to lower the light level?

Are there any known compatibility issues with an HP5412 switches or HP SPF transceivers that I should be aware of?

Thanks!

Hi Phil,

What optic are you using on the satellite?

Do you have auto-neg enabled or disabled on both sides?

Please send show nv sat stat sat <x> from the 9K. To login to the 9000v and get light levels use that same command and use 'telnet vrf <x> w.x.y.z' The vrf may be **nVSatellite. Once in the satellite issue 'show satellite powerlevels port all'

Thanks,

Sam

Hi Sam,

These are GLC-LH-SMD SFPs on the Satellite. We are using auto-neg. I'm working on getting more details from the customer's HP5412 config. They had a short window to test today. I'm going to see if we can set up another short test window with them again soon. (This is a production switch for them and we don't have lab hardware to duplicate the problem right now).

Here's the output from the "show nv sat status sat 100"

Hi Phil,

Did you solve this problem? it will be good to know what you did?
