Hi,

We have been using an HSSI card ( Hardware is M1T-HSSI-B) on a 7206 VXR
router and it is working fine.

We got another HSSI card but when we plug it, the module is not
automatically recognised in the router.

Here is the error message that was found in the log:

Aug 20 23:15:46.727: %PA-3-REVNOTSUPPORTED: PA in slot2 (Mx HSSI-B)
requires base h/w revision of (1.17) for this chassis
*Aug 20 23:15:46.727: %PA-3-DEACTIVATED: port adapter in bay [2] powered off.
*Aug 20 23:15:46.827: %PA-2-PABRIDGE: Failed to config bridge for PA 2


The two options I had with this situation are:
1. new hssi card is faulty;
2. hardware not compatible in that type of router.

Due to the error message, I am leaning towards option 2. (REVNOTSUPPORTED)

Has anyone come across this error and is there any chance that I get this
HSSI card to work in that router?

Thanks for your help.

Eddy
