Installing the Hardware

SSR-GLX39-04
SSR-GSX31-04

8.3.0.0

Note: If your system uses a redundant power

configuration or only one power supply, you
will not be able to support more than 5 SSR-
GLX39-04 and SSR-GSX31-04 cards in the
X-Pedition 8000 and 10 in the
X-Pedition 8600.

Note: You may install the SSR-GLX39-04 or

SSR-GSX31-04 in any line card slot except
the CM slot which supports a control module
only.

Preparing the Module

When connecting a 1000Base-SX/LX module to
a device that does not support auto-negotiation,
ensure that auto-negotiation is disabled and that
both devices are set to the same data transmission
speed and duplex mode.

Default Module Settings

The default mode for each port on the X-Pedition-
8000 and X-Pedition-8600 is:

Full duplex/ 1000 mbs/ autonegotiation on

To view the current mode for a particular port, enter
the following (where x is the chassis slot that
contains the line card and y is a specific port number
on the card):

xp# port show port status gi.x.y

CLI Setup
