Get a newer code rev. I had the same 'problem' with some NetIron's. The Copper SFP's are way newer than the code rev you are running.

I presume I'm doing something stupid; hopefully someone here can point it out. I have some copper SFPs which appear not to be working correctly in a ServerIron. Details follow. On this switch: SW: Version 08.1.00eT24 Copyright (c) 1996-2002 Foundry Networks, Inc. Compiled on Feb 03 2004 at 18:53:48 labeled as WSR08100e HW: ServerIron 100 SLB, SYSIF version 21 I have a copper SFPs inserted in ports 2/7 and 2/8, configured as follows: interface ethernet 2/7 port-name "some linux box" gig-default neg-full-auto ! interface ethernet 2/8 port-name "some linux box" (The extra config line in 2/7 was me seeing if the duplex setting made a difference; it doesn't seem to.) Both ports are connected to copper gig ports on Dell poweredge servers running Fedora Core, but show down/down on the switch (see below). "show media" returns the following: SSH at s1.lax1#show media 2/1:M-SX 2/2:M-SX 2/3:M-SX 2/4:M-SX 2/5: 2/6:M-SX 2/7: 2/8: SSH at s1.lax1# The multimode SFPs in 2/1 thru 2/4 and 2/6 seem to be recognised fine (and they work fine too), but the copper SFPs in 2/7 and 2/8 don't appear in that list. Is there some special magic I need to make 2/7 and 2/8 work?
