AS7326-56X - Troubleshoot for switch port link problems Follow
Purpose :
This article describes how to check the hardware portion for troubleshooting switch ports cannot link up problems.
Model :
AS7326-56X
Procedure :
Step-1 Please make sure your network cable is good first
Step-2 Please power cycle the switch and boot into the ACCTON-DIAG for troubleshooting
Step-3 Enter the command to set port speed
Set the port speed to 25G and 100G on the uplink ports.
root@(none):/# swutil -C -r 48x25+8x100
switch config mode: 48x25+8x100
If you want to test with port speeds 10G and 40G, please execute the "swutil -C -r 48x10+8x40".
Step-4 Setup the environment for specific ports
For example:
- Use a pair of 25G transceivers to connect port1 and port2.
- Use a pair of 100G transceivers to connect port51 and port52.
- Use a pair of 10G transceivers to connect the last 10G ports.
Step-5 Enter the command to check port status
Basically, plugging those cables and transceivers does not require additional settings, the ports will link up directly if everything is properly.
The port mapping as below :
- xe0~xe47 is physical port1~port48
- ce0~ce7 is physical port49~port54
- xe48~xe49 is physical 10G

If the fiber ports CANNOT link up, please refer to step-6 for debugging.
Step-6 Check the fiber port
There are four items need to be checked here.
- Dump the EEPROM of the transceiver
Please use the command "trcv-dev [Port number] eeprom" to dump the EEPROM of the transceiver according to the port you used.
*AS7326-56X has a total of 56 fiber ports, the [Port number] starts from 0 to 55.
*The switch should be able to read EEPROM information properly.

If you are using optical transceiver or AOC cable, then there is no additional settings are required here. By default, our DIAG already loaded the "pre-emphasis" accordingly.
If you are using the DAC cable, please enable the "link training" function.
The following command is used to enable the "link training" function:root@(none):/# swutil phy control ce LT=1
Current PHY control settings of ce0 ->
Preemphasis = 0x14410a
DriverCurrent = 0xffffffff
DFE ENable = True
LP DFE ENable = True
BR DFE ENable = False
LinkTraining Enable = True
Interface = 0x3e
<omit> - Regarding the SFP28 25G port, please check the "TX_disable" setting.
(By default is enabled.)
Use "trcv-dev 0-47 txdis" to check the current setting. "yes" means enabled.

If the optical module still cannot be linked up, we suggest replacing the QSFP. - Regarding the last 10G port, our AS7326-56X is using Broadwell D-1518 CPU, so this unit doesn't support MAC to CPU but supports MAC to front ports.
In our ACCTON-DIAG, no additional settings are required, it will be linked by default. - Regarding the 25G port down the speed to 10G, according to hardware limitations, it needs to use speed 10G must change the speed port group at a time.
Please run the command "swutil phy info" and check the name item to know what a core index for 4 front ports of the port group.
Example:
Group-1, TSCF-16/00 use xe0,xe1,xe2 and xe5
Group-2, TSCF-16/01 use xe3,xe4,xe6 and xe8root@(none):/# swutil phy info

If the above items are checked, but the fiber port still cannot be linked up, please save all logs of the above test and submit the ticket to Edgecore Support.
