6704-10gb port crossconnect issue. very odd.

gskhanna
Level 1
Level 1

Installed 2 new 6704-10gb blades in 2x 6509 routers.

Routers are already configured with 1x 10gb-LR crossconnect between each router with a simple /30 between them. Working fine.

After the upgrade. Initially I want to setup a 30gb port channel between the router, but for some reason, i was unable to ping across the interface. I then removed the channel, and just setup a /30 on a new interface and tried to ping across and could not. I also added an ipv6 address to each side and THAT was pingable.

Here is my config:

R1

|

| Single Mode fiber Cable.

|

R2

interface TenGigabitEthernet4/1

description int 4/1 test

ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.0

no ip unreachables

no cdp enable

end

R1

interface TenGigabitEthernet4/1

description int 4/1 test

ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

no ip unreachables

end

Link lights come up fine, and like I said, if I add an ipv6 address to both sides, I can ping across. But I cannot ping 10.1.1.1 nor 10.1.1.2 from the other side.

Now I have 2x more 10gb blades in slot #3. When connected to t3/4 on both sides using the SAME 10GB-LR and same cable, and even same above configuration, it works fine.

Both routers have identical parts. This is driving me crazy. am I supposed to activate something for this new blade?

Thanks.

Hello Gurpreet,

for correctly supporting the 6708 linecards with 8 10GE ports we needed to move from 12.2(18)SXF to 12.2(33)SHa.

What IOS release are you using ?

minimum version is 12.2(17a)SX

see

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst6500/ios/12.2SXF/native/release/notes/OL_4164.html#wp2561983

Hope to help

Giuseppe

We are using:

Version 12.2(18)SXF9

If it didn't support it, then the other blade wouldn't be working fine.

Nor would ipv6 work :/

really odd that ipv4 doesn't work.

I even swapped blades around, and just doesn't work in slot 4 for ipv4.
