== Link status issues with different network equipment ==
=== Problem: 1G link is not coming up with 1G/10G SFP+ fiber modules ===
There is a known incompatibility with our 1G/10G SFP+ fiber modules when used with some Cisco equipment, such as a Cisco Nexus or Catalyst switch with 1G connectivity.
The solution is as follows:
* Disable auto-negotiation for the Cisco switch port which is connected to the Allegro device.
* Manually set speed to 1G for the Cisco switch port
Example configuration for Nexus:
configure terminal
interface ethernet x/yy
speed 1000
no negotiate auto
Actual commands depends on the Cisco model. Alternative commands are:
speed nonegotiates
set port speed 1000
Combinations known to work for 1G connectivity:
* Our 1G/10G SFP+ SR module in an Allegro SFP port (article number 700)
* Cisco GLC-SX-MMD in a Cisco switch
* Cisco switch settings applied as described above
