Hi

We have a new ASR9001 and this is our first experience of the ASR9K series and 
IOS-XR, so please forgive any stupid newbie errors! :-)

We're trying to hook it up to an ASR1002 via 1G SX SFPs. We can get this to 
work if we use one of the 1G ports on a 20x GE MPA card (though it took us a 
while to figure out that you needed the 'negotiation auto' command under the 
interface!), but we can't get it to work if we use the built-in 10G interfaces. 
There appears to be no similar 'negotiation auto' command on the 10G interface; 
we did find the 'transceiver permit pid all' command, but to no avail.

The SFP is a genuine labelled Cisco part (GLC-SX-MMD) and according to this 
list should be compatible in the 10G port:

We're running 5.1.2.

Do you need some other special sauce to make a 1G SFP work in a 10G port?

Thanks
Rich.
