and mini-GBIC information

Enabling and Disabling Compatibility Mode for v2 zl and zl modules

NOTE: In the following context, v2 zl modules are the second version of the current zl modules.

Both v2 zl and zl modules are supported in the 5400zl and 8200zl series chassis switches.

Compatibility Mode allows the inter-operation of v2 zl modules with zl modules in a chassis switch.

When in Compatibility Mode, the switch accepts either v2 zl or zl modules. The default is

Compatibility Mode enabled. If Compatibility Mode is disabled by executing the no

allow-v1-modules command, the switch will only power up v2 zl modules.

Syntax

[ no ] allow-v1-modules

Enables Compatibility Mode for interoperation of v2 zl and zl modules in the same

chassis. (See Figure 147 (page 308).)

The no form of the command disables Compatibility Mode. Only the v2 zl modules

are powered up. (See Figure 148 (page 308).)

(Default: Enabled.)
