I agree, swap fiber strands on one side, check GBIC types, then auto settings. I have had this happen a few times in the past and I had to disable auto-negotiation on one side for it to work. I always thought you had to have the same settings on both sides (either auto or hard set) but that wasn't the case. Any thoughts ??

I'm assuming you have matching GBICs such as Multimode or Single Mode. If you still don't get a light, turn your autonegioation off on the uplink ports and check to ensure the ports are administratively up. If all those things are good, then its likely fiber. -----Original Message----- From: Jason Grubbs [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, October 28, 2011 11:14 AM To: Enterasys Customer Mailing List Subject: Re: [enterasys] <no subject> Hello All, I am now trying to uplink two network closets together using GBICs but the ports aren't lighting up. Are there any special commands to configure on the GBIC ports to get them to uplink?

I took some of Enterasys's bootcamps. They are very helpful. GTAC is helpful too.

The commands are very different than on Cisco switches. I know I have to create all of the vlans on the Enterasys switches because they don't recognize VTP but I am not having any luck.

We recently purchased Enterasys switches and I am having trouble getting them connected to our Cisco network.
