Hi The OSA port is connected with working cable LC-LC MM fibre to the 1g switch. From the Cisco switch it has been set as auto negotiate to yes.
Still from the mainframe the port doesn't show up the LED indication at all. I tried toggling standby/online but still no luck. Ran port diagnostics too with no error. Not sure where to look. Has anyone faced a similar issue and have any idea on what needs to be done?
