What is the device on the other side of the MX204 100G link. We've had some incrementing PCS errors on 100G links when the other side was a Juniper PTX1000 using port et-0/0/25. Using a different port on the PTX1000 resolved the incrementing PCS errors. We opened JTAC cases for two

we have been making 100G packet capture systems for 5 years now ( fmad.io ). In the early days vendor qualified transceivers really do make a difference, its 25Gbps signaling per differential pair which is anything but easy. Back then (4-5Y ago) the cheap QSFP28 vendors had some really marginal

We've got a 100g qsfp in an mx204 that has 1207 bit errors and 29666 errored blocks after 24 hours of just being linked up... I would assume this is not normal behavior, but I haven't used 100g before. Do others see high error rates on their 100g optics?
