Overview
Use these procedures to configure SFP+ modules and enable error correction on high-speed links. This ensures reliable data transmission and recovers potential errors during long-range communications on supported platforms.
Configure SFP+
Perform this task when installing or reconfiguring SFP+ modules on compatible Cisco devices.
Several Cisco platforms, NIMs, and SM cards support configuring multiple-rate SFPs on the same interface, for example, 1G SFP or 10G SFP+ on a 10G port. In a port-channel bundle, all member interfaces should use the same speed and duplex setting. Use duplex interfaces with the same speed as member interfaces to configure a port-channel.
For more information about interfaces that support multiple-rate SFPs, see the corresponding datasheets.
Procedure
| 1. | enable source-interface gigabitethernet slot/port Example:This command enables privileged EXEC mode. Enter your password if prompted. |
|
| 2. | configure terminal Example:Enters the global configuration mode. |
|
| 3. | interface tengigabitethernet slot/port Example:Specifies the 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface to be configured. Here: slot or port—Specifies the location of the interface. |
The SFP+ interface is configured and ready for use.
