Advide for GBIC on DEC3860

Hi all

I‘m new to OPNsense and was using Unifi for a long time now. I have just received my brand new DEC3860 hardware today and moved all the vlans over. My internet access is running on a 1 Gb fiber link connected over a siligence sga 441sfpo-1gb GBIC module. Connecting the existing GBIC and fiber to the ax0 port (i have VLAN 10 set on it) the ports status stays „no carrier“. Connecting everything back to Unifi it works as before.

Did had anybody the same issue? Btw. I‘m connecting to a Swisscom (wingo) fiber here in switzerland :)

On /var/log/system.log I can see that the SFP+ port ist recognized:
Jan 29 06:34:36 OPNsense kernel: ax0: <AMD 10 Gigabit Ethernet Driver> mem 0x80160000-0x8017ffff,0x80140000-0x8015ffff,0x80188000-0x80189fff at device 0.4 on pci6

As it looks like the GBIC is not recognized:

Checking a clean /var/log/system.log on interface (ax0) messages i get the following:

Patrick M. Hausen:
I am not quite sure if they are even supposed to be backward compatible. But that port on your new appliance is an SFP+ one. So possibly you will need an SFP+ (read: 10G) module. Which will then negotiated down to 1G speed.

Mbl:
Thanks @pmhausen for your replay. The device I had previously (Unif) also had SFP+ ports and the GBIC worked very well.

The "funny" thing is, I do have a (old) ethernet GBIC in the ax1 port which works pretty well too :-\

Anybody a good alternative GBIC which is compatible with the device or a good fix?

Mbl:
Anybody a idea for a 1GB GBIC module being supported with the built in AMD SFP+ slots with the following specification?

* FORM FACTOR: SFP
* CONNECTOR: LC-Simplex
* INTERFACE: Singlemode BiDi
* WAVELENGTH TX: 1310 nm
* WAVELENGTH RX: 1490 nm

Patrick M. Hausen:
If you bought a DEC3860 from Deciso, why don't you just ring them and ask? Seriously, your first stop for anything hardware related should be your supplier and not a community forum.
