A set of bash scripts using i2c-tools to modify SFP module EEPROM. Hardware is an STM32 configured as a USB-I2C adapter (or a Raspberry Pi / mainboard SMBus) with a Cisco Twingig adapter as the SFP breakout. It handles the default Cisco Finisar module password 0x00000000 and recalculates checksums after edits.

Accepted answer

Unlock Cisco Finisar modules with the default password 0x00000000, edit the fields, and recalculate the checksums so the module stays valid.
