 Hi All,
 I have some LX & SX brocade/foundry Gbics  . I'me
 told there is a command that will enable these Gbics to work
 in a Cisco chassis, is this this the case ?,
 If so does anyone know the commands?. Thanks in advance

 It's because intra-area LSAs are preferred compared to
 inter-area LSAs. 
 The super-backbone(MP-BGP->OSPF) introduces LSAs from the
 remote site as Type-3 into the LSDB of a local PE and if the
 local PE happens to have a Type-1 LSA from a directly
 connected link than that one is preferred. So you can either
 make both LSAs to appear as Type-1 using sham-link or you
 can make both to be type-3 using different areas on each
 site. 
 
 Or you can use BGP as everyone else and can forget about all
 this mess above.

 Hi all
 
 ?I have been searching for 40G to 4*10G cables (not
 DAC/Twinax but optical ones). 
 ?Did you ever use such cables ? is it reliable ?
 ?I did not find any monomode ones, I guess this is not
 existing... any idea why (strength of signal ?) ?
 
 Thanks & best regards
 Gilles

 Was looking at this a while ago - but haven't had a chance
 to try any of it
 - no one has bought me any 40G kit yet...
 
 >From Cisco - for Multimode - Cisco QSFP-40G-SR4 - This
 terminates on a
 MPO-12 plug which you can connect to 4x 10G SR
 
 Unfortunately Cisco doesn't make a single mode version - but
 I found -
 these from Arista - don't know if they work though -
 QSFP-40G-PLR4
 and QSFP-40G-PLRL4
 
 Good luck, and if you do get to try it out - please keep us
 informed.
 
 Regards
 
 Andrew

 I don't have Cisco switches with QSFP ports, but have used
 both SR and
 LR versions of these breakout cables from Elpeus.com without
 problems in
 Dell / Force10.
