Connectivity down between a 9100 gateway and a cisco 4500 module

Hello,

I’m facing an issue with a new 9100 cluster, trying to connect it to an old 4500 (specificaly a WS-X4306-GB card) but all ports remain in the state « down (notconnect) » (4 ports in total, on both member of the cluster so I’m rejecting a connection issue). Below some outputs :

Firewall2> show asset network

Number of line cards: 1

Line card 1 model: CPAC-8-1/10F-D

Line card 1 type: 8 ports 1/10GbE Fiber Rev 1.0

Firewall2> show interface eth1-02

state on

mac-addr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

type ethernet

link-state link down

mtu 1500

auto-negotiation off

speed N/A

monitor-mode Not configured

duplex N/A

link-speed 1000M/full

Router2#show interfaces Gi2/6

GigabitEthernet2/6 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect)

  Hardware is Gigabit Ethernet Port, address is xxxx.xxxx.xxxx (bia xxxx.xxxx.xxxx)

  Description: Firewall 2

  MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec,

     reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255

  Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set

  Keepalive set (10 sec)

  Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, link type is force-up, media type is 1000BaseSX

For me, transceivers seem good on both ends. On router side, there is nothing much I can configure on the port expect of a « speed nonegotiate » which doesn’t change the behavior. On Checkpoint side, I’ve forced the speed and duplex to match the router’s but without a change either :

Router2#sh run int Gi2/6                     

interface Firewall2

 description NS_RESA_U142018_FWVTECH

 speed nonegotiate

end

set interface eth1-02 link-speed 1000M/full

set interface eth1-02 state on

set interface eth1-02 auto-negotiation off

Do you know if there is some known incompatibility between the new quantum firewall and old cisco modules ?

Thank you.

To clarify what brand / SKU of SFP is populated in the ports, does HCP complain about them?

Also per sk92755 not all of them support multirate capabilities.

Hi, Thanks for your answer. HCP doesn't complain about the SFP on both member of the cluster:

Great the remaining aspect is the speed / multirate issue and if the SFP supports it (refer sk92755).

If you do ifconfig and show interfaces from clish, does it show as up in both places?

Best,
