Fortigate 1000D SFP+ 10G Trasceiver and Cisco 4500-X SFP+ Trasceiver

[Carlos_A_Almeida]

Someone knows if it's possible to connect a Fortigate 1000D using the 10 GE SFP+ transceiver module and a Cisco Switch model 4500-X with the Cisco SFP+ trasceiver? Someone tried to do that? Did Work?

Thank you,

I have 1500D and Cisco GBIC's

but you will need to be more specific about the exactly GBIC model.

Cisco GBIC: SFP+ Cisco SFP-10G-SR-S

Fortigate GBIC: 10 GE SFP+ Transceiver Module, Short Range FG-TRAN-SFP+SR 10 GE SFP+

I don't know if these information are sufficient. But thank you for your help.

I highly doubt that would work. If the SFP+ is a dual-rate model, you might be able to get it to work. They only ones that are dual-rate that I've manage to get to work are the intel-stuff.

I would fist start with a show port cap command on the cisco 4500-X  and a diag hard dev nic <port name >

I'm also guessing you have nothing to loose, with just trying ;)
