Figure 2 Forcibly bring up a fiber port
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
When you forcibly bring up a fiber port, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
•
This feature is not supported on 10-GE interfaces on the LSQ1TGS8SC0 or LSQ1GP24TXSD0
interface module.
•
For fiber ports connected to the same physical link to operate correctly, you must configure this
feature for both of them.
•
The
port
up-mode
,
shutdown
, and
loopback
commands are mutually exclusive.
•
Either of the following operations on an interface forcibly brought up will cause the interface to
go down before staying physically up:
{
Configure the
speed
and
duplex
commands on the interface.
{
Remove and install fibers or transceiver modules.
•
A GE fiber port forcibly brought up cannot correctly forward traffic if it is installed with a
fiber-to-copper converter, 100/1000-Mbps transceiver module, or 100-Mbps transceiver module.
To solve the problem, use the
undo port up-mode
command on the fiber port.
