I have been having an issue where I have a SPF cable from switch to switch that shows port administratively shutdown here is a show interface:

GigabitEthernet0/3 is administratively down, line protocol is down (disabled)
Hardware is Gigabit Ethernet, address is 001b.0c0d.e71b (bia 001b.0c0d.e71b)

Auto-duplex, Auto-speed, link type is auto, media type is 1000BaseCX SFP Cable
input flow-control is off, output flow-control is unsupported

I have tried many things to change this. any help would be great. I tested the cable on a different set of switches and the link came right up.

did you go under the interface and issue no shutdown?

I hate all Uppercase... I don't want my groups to seem angry at me all the time! =)

No there is no port security and yes I tried to issue no shutdown many times.

does it let you issue the 'no shut' command? are you doing it in config t mode? (sorry)

On the interface see if there is a "media" command sometimes you have to select the media type of the port whether fiber or copper .

What model 3560 is this ? What does a show interface status show ?

Try changing it to one of the other sfp ports and see what happens .

on Corp-1stFloor1 - do a "show run int gig0/3"

on Corp-1stFloor2 - do a "show run int gig0/1"

post those results

not the "sho int" - but the "show run int" for those interfaces

administratively down" means a port is shut down

look at Corp-1stFloor1

Port gig0/3 is in "shutdown" state

Go to that switch. Config t. Int gig0/3. no shut.

sounds like it's time to open a Cisco TAC case and you have a possible IOS bug.

administratively down, by definition, means that your port is in the "shutdown" state in your configuration

Post the ENTIRE output from this

Logon to Corp-1stFloor1

sho int gig0/3

sho run int gig0/3

config t

int gig0/3

no shut

(press CTRL-Z)

sho run int gig0/3

sho int gig0/3

that will show us the port state of gig0/3

then the configuration

then we'll watch you enter config mode, then interface config mode, then enter the "sno shut" command

then we'll see the configuration again (which should NOT contain the "shutdown" remark)

then we'll see the port state

if entering the "no shut" command, specifically on gig0/3 on Corp-1stFloor1 does NOT take that port out of "administratively down" mode - then you have a bug.

Change logging to debug level then issue your "no shut" command again. Go to the log (or log to console) and see what it says the interface has done.

try to default the interface
see if will stay no shut if it does then put your configuration back on and see what happens..

config t
default interface gig0/3
end
sh int
config t
int g0/3
no shutdown
end
show run int g0/3
!
show int g0/3

.May 21 12:07:05.568: Gi0/3 can't be brought up because it failed POST in loopback test

Can I fix this?
