NOTE: TDR is an intrusive test. Do not run TDR on a link that is up and passing
trac.
To test and display TDR results, use the following commands.
1 To test for cable faults on the TenGigabitEthernet cable.
EXEC Privilege mode
tdr-cable-test tengigabitethernet slot/port
Between two ports, do not start the test on both ends of the cable.
Enable the interface before starting the test.
Enable the port to run the test or the test prints an error message.
2 Displays TDR test results.
EXEC Privilege mode

Conguring wavelength for 10–Gigabit SFP+ optics
You can set the wavelength for tunable 10–Gigabit SFP+ optics using the wavelength command. To set the wavelength, follow these
steps:
• Enter the interface mode and set the wavelength.
INTERFACE mode
wavelength 1529.0
The wavelength range is from 1528.3 nm to 1568.77nm.
• Verify conguration changes.

Link Dampening
Interface state changes occur when interfaces are administratively brought up or down or if an interface state changes.
Every time an interface changes a state or aps, routing protocols are notied of the status of the routes that are aected by the change in
state. These protocols go through the momentous task of re-converging. Flapping; therefore, puts the status of entire network at risk of
transient loops and black holes.
Link dampening minimizes the risk created by apping by imposing a penalty for each interface ap and decaying the penalty exponentially.
After the penalty exceeds a certain threshold, the interface is put in an Error-Disabled state and for all practical purposes of routing, the
interface is deemed to be “down.” After the interface becomes stable and the penalty decays below a certain threshold, the interface
comes up again and the routing protocols re-converge.
Link dampening:
• reduces processing on the CPUs by reducing excessive interface apping.
• improves network stability by penalizing misbehaving interfaces and redirecting trac.
• improves convergence times and stability throughout the network by isolating failures so that disturbances are not propagated.
