Recently we bought a WS-X6148A-GE-TX card and we installed the card to the chassis. the 6506-E looks like recognize the card but unfortunately the status shows Powerdown and Fw/Sw shows unknown ??

Hello,
The problem could be a incompatibility between the supervisor card used, the IOS version and its support for the GE module.
Hope the following chart with the minimum required supervisor/IOS helps.
Regards.

Hi Jon,
thank you for your reply and guidance.
yes we are running VSS.
we installed the cards ot the two 6506-E and we are facing the mentioned problem.
05-13-2010 08:03 AM
You cannot run this card in a VSS system. You need all WS-X67xx modules in a VSS system, see the VSS Q&A for details of supported modules -
Jon

Yes,
That module is not compatible with VSS. See my VSS hardware details to have an idea:
2 x C6506-E running IOS 12.2-33SXI
SUP720 10GE
WS-X6748-GE-TX module
2 x WS-CAC-3000W power supplies.
Regards.

Jon,
Good you asked the question about VSS. Yep the 6148 will not work...
