Incoming laser fluctuations usually indicate a deteriorating SFP. If this message occurs repeatedly,
replace the SFP.
Severity INFO
FW-1038
Message
Probable
Cause
Indicates that the receive power value of the SFP has fallen below the low boundary. The receive
performance area measures the amount of incoming laser to help you determine if the SFP is in good
working condition or not. If the counter often exceeds the threshold, the SFP is deteriorating.
Recommended
Action
Verify that your optical components are clean and function properly. Replace deteriorating cables or
SFPs. Check for damage from heat or age.
Severity WAR NIN G
FW-1039
Message
Probable
Cause
Indicates that the receive power value of the SFP has risen above the high boundary. The receive
performance area measures the amount of incoming laser to help you determine if the SFP is in good
working condition or not. If the counter often exceeds the threshold, the SFP is deteriorating.
Recommended
Action
Replace the SFP before it deteriorates.
