Hi Mike!

the Alarm status comes from the SFP. Togehther with the crapp chars I would say some internal values got messed up maybe incl the thresholds for alarms. -16dbm should be fine.

Talk to the vendor.

Cheers

I am bringing up a new link. This is on CWDM fiber with a supposedly
80km optic. Path is about 20 miles. I'm getting the following warning
messages:

*Apr 29 2015 22:29:09.851 PST: %SFF8472-3-THRESHOLD_VIOLATION: Te0/3: Rx
power low warning; Operating value: -16.4 dBm, Threshold value: -15.8 dBm.

The link is working fine without issue but I want to know what I'm
looking at and wether it's worthwhile to do something about it?

Also in my show inventory for this I get:

NAME: "TenGigabitEthernet0/3", DESCR: "10GBASE-ER/EW"
PID: scrambled gobblydegook  VID: scrambled
crap , SN: INEAC0060007


     The 'pid' and 'vid' values are all high bit chars undecipherable.
Lastly, Im including the detail output in case any of these numbers make
sense:
