[AusNOG] Dark Fibre going Error Disable

[Nathan Brookfield]

Skeeve,

There could be a handful of reasons for this such as link flapping, broadcast storm if storm control is enabled on the Cisco end etc.

This is also sent to SYSLOG or shown in the local log if the buffer hasn't filled up as yet.

Kindest Regards,
Nathan Brookfield

Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone might know what some triggers would be to cause a dark fibre link to go into Error-Disable.

It was easy to shut; no shut to bring it back online, but it was disturbing nonetheless.

One end is Cisco and the other Juniper using ER optics - not sure if that makes a difference or not.
