Hello,

I'm having a little problem here with a new Cisco 4510R-E. It's
running the following configuration:

Mod Ports Card Type                              Model        
---+-----+--------------------------------------+-------------
 5     6  Sup 6-E 10GE (X2), 1000BaseX (SFP)     WS-X45-SUP6-E
 9    18  1000BaseX (GBIC)                       WS-X4418-GB  
10     6  SFP, 10/100/1000BaseT (RJ45)V, Cisco/I WS-X4506-GB-T

 M MAC addresses                    Hw  Fw           Sw               Status

10 001e.7ad0.f90c to 001e.7ad0.f911 1.4                               Ok       

Mod  Redundancy role     Operating mode      Redundancy status
----+-------------------+-------------------+----------------------------------
 5   Active Supervisor   RPR                 Active                            

I'm tryubg to activate the ports on the WS-X4506-GB-T, but I'm unable to
get any connection. I connected the first two ports on the card to
create a loopback and still the ports are shown as "not connected". I
use RJ45 and have set the media-type of the ports to rj45 which
is also stated in the log:

00:00:05: %C4K_REDUNDANCY-6-INIT: Initializing as ACTIVE supervisor

00:45:41: %C4K_IOSINTF-5-RJ45ACTIVE: Slot= 10 Port= 2:  RJ45 connector has become active

Here is the port configuration:

interface GigabitEthernet10/1
 no switchport
 ip address dhcp
 no keepalive
 media-type rj45
!
interface GigabitEthernet10/2
 no switchport
 ip address dhcp
 no keepalive
 media-type rj45
!

Is there anything I'm missing? I already changed the cabling so that's
not the problem. Any ideas/suggestions welcome.

Regards,

Sebastian
