[c-nsp] Probleme Force10/Cisco

[Phibee Network Operation Center]

Hi

We are facing an issue between a switch Force10 E1200 and our Cisco

equipments:

We tried:
A 2960 Cisco
A 2960G cisco
A 7301 cisco Router

Using copper FE, copper GE and now LX OF

In each case we get 1 to 2% CRC and Input errors:

Did anyone face this kind of problems between Force10 and Cisco? On the
Force10 we can't see any errors...



On the force10:

interface GigabitEthernet 12/2
  no ip address
  switchport
  no spanning-tree
  no negotiation auto
  no shutdown
