+**FEC** on an SFP port refers to **Forward Error Correction (FEC)**, which is a technique used in fiber optic and Ethernet networks to enhance data transmission reliability by detecting and correcting errors without the need for retransmission.
+**FEC (Forward Error Correction)**:
+FEC is a mechanism that adds redundant information to the transmitted data. This redundancy allows the receiving end to detect and correct errors caused by signal degradation or noise during transmission.
+Purpose: FEC is essential for high-speed data links (e.g., 10G, 25G, 40G, 100G Ethernet) to improve link quality and performance.
+Types: Different FEC modes can be used depending on the standard and speed of the connection (e.g., Reed-Solomon FEC).
+  *   **auto**   Enable FEC Auto-Neg
+  *   **cl108**  Enable clause108 with 25G
+  *   **cl74**   Enable clause74 with 25G
+  *   **off**    Turn FEC off, FEC is mandatory for speeds 50G or higher
+----
+----
+**Benefits of FEC on SFP Ports**:
+  * Error Correction: FEC can correct errors due to signal attenuation or interference.
+  * Better Link Performance: Allows for longer cable runs or higher speeds by improving signal integrity.
+  * No Retransmissions: Unlike other error correction methods, FEC works proactively without needing retransmissions, which is important for low-latency environments.

+====== Steps to get the support files for both the switches: ======
+**For SFTP**:
+  Switch# copy support-files all sftp:// user@Address of Local Server>/support-files.tar.gz vrf default
+**For TFTP**:
+  Switch# copy support-files all tftp:// Address of Local Server>/support-files.tar.gz vrf default
+  CS-2C-MDFHA-A# copy support-files all tftp://10.56.64.22/support-files.tar.gz vrf default
+  The operation to copy all support files could take a while to complete.
+  Do you want to continue (y/n)? y
+  Collection in progress...
+  Standby management module is not reachable
+  Unable to gather information from the standby management module

+Please note on both the above cases you can use the specific VRF (ex, here we have used management VRF), if you do not specify a VRF, then it will take the default VRF
+OR
+Copy the support files to USB and then upload manually.
+**For USB**:
+For USB option, First you need to enable the USB and then you need to Mount, To do so
+  Switch#(config) usb mount
+Verification can be done by
+  Switch# show usb
+  enabled: yes
+  mounted: yes
+  Switch# copy support-files all usb://support-files.tar.gz
+After copied use this command to unmount the usb
+  Switch#(config) usb unmount
+ USB should be formatted with FAT32 option before inserting to switch.
