How to turn off alarms for third-party Modules On Huawei Switches

Time: 2023-06-25
        Huawei switches will authenticate the access optical module, and when the access module is verified to be non-Huawei original, a large number of alarm messages will pop up in the default state; at the same time, Huawei also provides commands to turn off the alarms of non-Huawei data center switches' authenticated optical modules.
        Let's take Huawei CE6860 switch as an example to learn how to block non-Huawei alarms when Huawei switches use third-party module modules:
        1. Check the CloudEngine 6800 Configuration Guide-Device Management document from the Huawei official website to obtain the switch's policy on whether to generate non-Huawei data center switch certification alarms for different rate optical modules;
Table 1 GE and 10GE optical module alarm policies
Whether Huawei Data Center Switch Certified Optical Module 
Whether to Generate Alarms
Certified
No alarm
Non-certified
Alarm
 
Table 2 25GE, 40GE, 100GE, and 400GE optical module alarm policy
Optical module production time
Whether Huawei data center switch certified optical modules
Whether alarms are generated
Before June 30, 2015
(including June 30, 2015)
Certified
No alarm
Non-certified
After June 30, 2015
Certified
No alarm
Non-certified
Alarm

        2. When a third-party module is accessed to the Huawei switch, the module can be linked up normally, and the alarm information for non-Huawei certified modules appears in the port pop-up log and in the information for identifying the module;
        3. In system view mode, execute the command "transceiver non-certified-alarm disable" to turn off the non-Huawei data center switch certified optical module alarm switch;
        4. After the non-Huawei alarm is turned off, the module can be linked up normally, and the non-Huawei certified alarm will no longer appear in the port log and optical module identification information;
        5. In system view mode, execute the command "undo transceiver non-certified-alarm disable" to exit the switch to disable non-Huawei data center switch certified optical module alarms;

        The optical modules provided by Moduletek can be used in different series of Huawei switches, welcome to buy them.
