4. Verify the Brocade DCX 8510-4 and connector and port status using the switchShow -qsfp
command.
A sample of the command output is shown below. The example is from a DCX 8510-4 with a
core blade installed in slot 3. Some details for the 8510-8 will be different, but the reported
information for the QSFPs will be similar.
Note that the State reported for an unconnected QSFP (shown QSFP 0 and Ports 0-3 below) is
No_SigDet. This is different from the State of No_Synch that is reported for regular SFPs that
are unconnected.
QSFP 7 (ports 3/28-3/31, Index 748-751) in the following example shows the results for a
connected QSFP.
