Thanks @simpkins for the explanation, and yes I see and now understand the problem you are in!

Just some background info from my side. The "issue" got raised when I dived in to the log-output of FBOSS. I used one QSFP/SFP splitter cable and plugged it in to different ports, and the logs I got mentioned for example links 5,6,7,8 where up and QSFP port 0 .. or link 1,2,3,4 and port ! .. which obviously added additional confusion while debugging my real issue.

Btw, the wedge spec on OCP side mentions that the first QSFP port, port 0 is the first/lower plug. So that will change?

Hi Marcel,

I don't think this is an issue anymore. Do you mind if I close this PR?

See the new qsfp_server code if you're interested in how this got re-written.
