Just for reference - our customer was not able to get the 1G link "up"
with his N5K, and has now terminated this on a 2960.  (Which was not such
a big thing in the end as an upgrade to 10G was scheduled anyway).

It's a bit unfortunate that we couldn't experiment more with this to
find out whether it might have worked with other settings, or maybe 
even involved TAC to have a look - but this was a production link that
could only be down with for short times in pre-announced service windows,
and the customer was too busy with moving other stuff to be willing to
invest more time here.

(FTR, this was an 1G link provided by Deutsche Telekom [53X/...], handed 
over on some Adva SM/MM conversion gear that we don't know anything else 
about)
