integrity of the GBIC data. If the system detects a problem with the
data, it displays an error message that indicates a checksum failure.
Corrective action:

indicate that the GBIC transceiver will not function in the system,
replace the transceiver to ensure proper operation.

Replace this transceiver with a GBIC that is
qualified by 3Com.
