Invoking Shared-Backplane Uplink Mode on Supervisor Engine 6-E
This feature enables you to use all four 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports on the supervisor engines as blocking
ports when in redundant mode.
Prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(40)SG, Catalyst 4500 Supervisor Engine V-10GE allowed you to enable
either the dual wire-speed 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports or four TwinGig convertor based Gigabit Ethernet
SFP uplink ports when operating in redundant mode. Beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(40)SG,
you could deploy all four 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, two blocking ports on an active supervisor engine
and two blocking ports on the standby supervisor engine, or all eight Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports, four
on the active supervisor and four on the standby supervisor engine. This capability is supported on all
Catalyst 4500 and 4500E series chassis.

Digital Optical Monitoring Transceiver Support
Command line interface (CLI) commands (show inventory, show idprom interface) are used on
transceivers to obtain serial number, model name, inventory information.
The following commands are specific to the transceivers that support the DOM capability:
Displays current values and thresholds for all sensor on a particular interface transceiver:
show interfaces int-name transceiver [detail] [threshold]
Enables or disables the entSensorThresholdNotification for all sensors in all the transceivers:
snmp-server enable trap transceiver
Enables or disables transceiver monitoring:
transceiver type all
monitoring
