[f-nsp] BR-MLX-1GFx24-X configured as invalid module

Looks like a set of MLX management modules combined with an XMR linecard (-X), that may be your problem. The MLX linecards end on -M at the end.

You can try removing the linecard from the chassis, then remove the module <blah> line from your configuration and re-insert it to see if it gets recognized correctly.

Hej,

I got these all new modules in completely new MLX4-e chassis and don't
know what the issue is, but the BR-MLX-1GFx24-X modules are always
recognized as invalid and put into interactive mode. I tried upgrading
the devices from IronWare 5.2c to IronWare 5.3b, but this didn't help.
The LP FPGA images, monitor and boot images are all up to date and the
linecard is not being recognized in both 5.2c and 5.3b. Anyone has an
idea why that is? I have 1GE Fiber SFPs in these linecards.
