I have 3 questions/remarks about AGL-2+ cards for GIGAswitch/FDDI: - The AGL-2+ card identifies itself as FW Rev 0.31 even though it has been up- graded to 3.10 - The Port LEDs don't change the color in MCM - The physical LEDs on the Module don't represent the line state as required 1) In the OBM mode if you do a "show slot configuration" you get: Slot CardTyp State HW FW 12 AGL-2+ Powered Up B 0.31 initialized MultiChassisManager (MCM) V6.0A shows the same info in the "System Summary" window as above. 2) MultiChassisManager V6.0A shows all the LEDS (Port, Phy, Brocken) in pink exept the Module status LED witch is correctly green eventhough a connection is estabished and the physical LEDs on the module report the status correctly 3) The physical LEDs on the modPHY card are not very usefull: the PHY LED is lit whenever the port is up even without a connection to a SDH or SONET node. Are the any plans to correct the mentioned problems or any workarounds available ? I would appeciate any answer to this Thomas Fierz, MCS Switzerland

| 970.1 | AGL2 and AGL2+ require 2 Jumpers to write flash | NPSS::RLEBLANC | Thu Apr 17 1997 09:54 | 13 | |
Sounds like to me you are missing two required jumpers.
There are two jumpers which need to be installed before a write
to the AGL2 Flash can occur. They are stake pins located near the
socketed flash parts E85,E86 and E129,E87. When the card is
removed from the switch and the front handle is in your left
hand with all the components facing you. These flash parts
will be in the Upper right of the card.
As for MCM, you need AGL2+ to be running V3.10 and the LEDs should be
reporting much better.
