Good point, Pete - 5.0(2) does not support 1G SFP, but the behavior is 
tricky.  The port will link up, but we cannot pass traffic above 256B. 
We did not have the proper message to block 1G configuration, so it was 
hard to know this isn't supported.

Garry,
"no negotiate auto" would be a good test, so after the upgrade please 
let me know.  There are more transceiver outputs we can gather if this 
doesn't help.

Regards,
John Gill
