Some OPT-0015 copper small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver might cause an internal bus to hang.
Corrupted serial number information from SFPs, and fiber SFPs may not come up. Enable and disable of copper SFPs may not work.
This happens only when the following conditions are met: -- 10000-series appliances. -- At reboot, at a restart of the bcm56xxd daemon, or when a copper SFP is enabled or disabled. -- There is at least one copper SFP present in the appliance. -- Interfaces are spread between hardware muxes. That means some SFPs are in ports 1.1-1.8 and other SFPs are in ports 1.9-1.16.
None.
The system now ensures that the I2C bus muxes only enable a single interface, so the issue with interfaces on Copper SFPs OPT-0015 on 10000-series appliances no longer occurs.
