Yes, and they (old hardware plateformes) support only passive DAC. I remember being bitten by this at the time. Tangent : hum 🤔... doesn’t seem normal to me. Maybe a bug ?!? Best regards.

No one knows of such a command and apparently the VDX line is finicky with what passive DACs they'll work with. I just ordered more of the ones I know that work.
Tangent: Is it normal for these guys to still transmit light even when the interface is shut?

Anyone know if there is a command in Brocade NOS (4.x) to force the use of an unsupported transceiver? If so, what is it?
