Installing the Hardware
SSR-GLX39-04
SSR-GSX31-04
8.3.0.0 Note: If your system uses a redundant power
configuration or only one power supply, you
will not be able to support more than 5 SSR-
GLX39-04 and SSR-GSX31-04 cards in the
X-Pedition 8000 and 10 in the
X-Pedition 8600.
Note: You may install the SSR-GLX39-04 or
SSR-GSX31-04 in any line card slot except
the CM slot which supports a control module
only.
Preparing the Module
• When connecting a 1000Base-SX/LX module to
a device that does not support auto-negotiation,
ensure that auto-negotiation is disabled and that
both devices are set to the same data transmission
speed and duplex mode.
Default Module Settings
The default mode for each port on the X-Pedition-
8000 and X-Pedition-8600 is:
Full duplex/ 1000 mbs/ autonegotiation on
To view the current mode for a particular port, enter
the following (where x is the chassis slot that
contains the line card and y is a specific port number
on the card):
xp# port show port status gi.x.y
CLI Setup
Enter the following commands at the CLI before
implementing any configurations.
1. Type the following from Enable mode to enter
Configuration mode
Enable -> Configure #
2. You may now begin configuring ports on the
SSR-GLX39-04 or SSR-GSX31-04. Refer to the

Proper Boot Sequence

that the system discovered the line card in proper slot.
• CLI indicates all ports are initialized and offline LED
turns off.
• Online LED lights.
• Link LED is active for connected lines.
Common Errors
• The line card is not inserted properly or seated
completely in the chassis
• Connectors for the connected lines are not seated
properly.
• Attached device is not configured to match
configuration mode of module (i.e., auto-negotiation,
speed, duplex).
Helpful CLI Commands for Debugging
• System show hardware
• System show version
• Port show port status gi.x.y (where x is the chassis
slot that contains the line card and y is a specific port
number on the card).
