Description | This article describes how to fix an error seen on FortiSwitch logs: 'failed DIAG-CONTROL Check Sequence'. |
Scope | FortiSwitch version 6.4.x and above. |
Solution |
If the SFP ports repeatedly go 'Up' and 'Down' due to the error 'failed DIAG-CONTROL Check Sequence', perform the following checks
execute log filter view-lines 1000 execute log display
Open the logs in a notepad file and search for any logs related to the port number. The following errors may be found with the SFP ports:
7: 2022-03-21 18:01:40 log_id=0100001054 type=event subtype=link pri=warning vd=root action="physical-port-change" user="dmid" status="None" switch.physical-port="port25" msg="dmi, port25, failed DIAG-CONTROL Check Sequence"
get switch modules summary port25 INSERT SFP/SFP+ N 10G-Base-SR OK FINISAR CORP. FTLXxxxxx S210xxxx04-2 port26 INSERT SFP/SFP+ N 10G-Base-SR OK FINISAR CORP. FTLXxxxxx S210xxxx05-2
Although the module shows Finisar, verify the module vendor physically on the transceiver.
Explanation of error: This could be a fake module with EEPROM programmed to show as FINISAR.
