This feature introduces a slot level CLI command for SFP transceivers. When configured, EOS will only manage the transceiver via the low speed hardware pins. The command is intended to be used in situations where SMBUS communication to access transceiver EEPROM is not reliable, which would normally lead to EOS disabling the port. Enabling this feature ignores any EEPROM dependent functionality and only turns on the laser, which may allow the link to come up when the default factory settings for both ends of the link are compatible.
