View 2 RepliesI have seen links out there for a conversion tool to convert commands on a Catalyst type switch (6509) to newer IOS type switches(4500-e) switches but they all error out on me on a 404. Any link where I can get this conversion tool?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have one out of three Catalyst Express 520's I cannot connect to with Cisco Configuration Assistant or with a browser. I've used Wireshark to capture the problem, and it sends a TCP RST packet immediately upon any such connection attempt.
As these devices do not have a console port, how can I gain access to the device? We'd like to upgrade them but cannot pull the existing config.
Since these 520's don't support or are not configured for telnet/ssh and the only connection I can make is with a broswer and CCA, I'm wondering if there is a way to get the config into a text file as normally done.
I am struggling with a CE520 and its smartports stuff.I have configured the following vlans :
1- data
100 - phones
I need to bring those vlans (both of them) to a Cisco 800 router. The port of the 800 router is already configured as trunk and accepts vlan 1 and 100.The cisco 800 has both vlan 1 and 100 configured with 2 ips on different subnets, and ip routing is enable (to route between two vlans). Also, no access lists are configured.I have configured one port in the switch as role "router" and connected to the router. The other ports are all configured as phone-desktop (phone vlan 100 desktop vlan 1).If I connect a phone and manually configure an ip (the phone gets automatically vlan 100), and try to ping the phone from the router, it doesnt respond. Alse vlan 100 is protocol down.I am guessing what s the right configuration as the link between the switch and the router should be a trunk link for 1 and 100 vlans, but it looks like is transporting only vlan 1.Also changing the port role to "other" when you can specify the native vlan and another vlan, the switch doesnt accept vlan 100 as additional vlan on that link.
We have inherited a Catalyst Express 500 (model WS-CE500-24PC) from a company we aquired, and are having issues configuring the switch.
The switch must have been configured previously, but we don't know its IP address. It is no longer on the network, so we can restart it as much as we need to.
We followed the factory reset process:
1) Disconnect the switch from the power supply
2) Reconnect the switch while holding the "SETUP" button
3) Release the "SETUP" button when the status LEDs all turn Amber
4) Wait for POST to complete
5) Connect one PC to the port whose LED starts flashing
However, the PC is never given an IP address, and when we open a web browser, anything we try to browse to gives us "Page cannot be displayed", rather than the setup page for the switch.
Are there any known issues or browser/OS incompatibilities with this model of switch? We're using Vista and Windows 7 with IE7, IE8 and Firefox 3.
Is there a way to prevent resetting catalyst config by pressing and holding in the MODE button after powerup? I had entered in a basic config into my switch including passwords, etc. and was checking out different uses of the MODE button including setting the switch into express mode and I somehow managed to wipe the config and send the switch back into a default state by holding the mode button in for too long.
I want to prevent this from happening once the switch it is in production.
Not sure if it matters, but this is the 24 S model using the LAN lite image..
Does it have this switch some port mirroring capability (SPAN or other)?

we are using the catalyst 3550 L3 for BGP routing. For e.g. Gi 0/4 is our internal interface tha we want "switch".
We need on Gi 0/5 the same network that is on gi 0/4.

I'm trying to do password recovery on a Catalyst 3850 switch..I've read the section in this: url...where it says that I need to have physical access to the switch (I do), and that I reset the password if I issue a break command and interrupt the boot procedure. I've tried to do that... it gives me the "switch:" prompt, so I think I've interrupted the boot procedure successfully, but, what do I do next?I've successfully done recoveries on Catalyst 2950s, 3550s & 3560s, but the procedure for this one, if I'm reading the link above right, sounds like it's completely different.

I had an old Cisco Catalyst 2948G switch that I have not used in about 7 years down in my basement. I powered it on and went through the process of clearing out the configurations, and I got to a point where one of the commands to clear out the config asked me to install jumpers for "ROM" and "ERASE". There is a third jumper labeled "NO BOOT". They are numbered J6, J7, & J8 respectivelyI found the jumpers inside and put the jumpers on them and ran the command expecting it to remove any old configurations I had on the switch and bring it back to factory state, but I was wrong.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI added Linksys RV-016 16-ports VPN Router into the connection. RV-016 supported multiple subnets.
As mentioned in [URL], D-Link DIR-615 needs to be a device which could support multiple Vlan subnets. But unluckily DIR-615 does not support multiple Vlan subnets.
Therefore I added Linksys RV-016 in the the combination of devices. As what i found in RV-016 GUI setting, it supports multiple subnets.
Purpose outline:
1. Have to create two different SSIDs.
- SSID 1 for Management (able to view all other LAN devices)
- SSID 2 for guest and staff (unable to view all other LAN devices)
2. Create two VLANs in catalyst 2960s.
3. Create two subnets in Linksys RV-016 to accept two Vlans from catalyst 2960s.
Any experience of configuring RV-016 for the mentioned purpose above?
I am using a catalyst 2970 switch for 2 vlans. Corporate data and a separate VLAN for backups. What I want to do is create an LACP etherchannel to the switch and also trunk these ports so the server is part of both VLANS.Due to fact that some of these servers are on totally separated networks, they really shouldn't be able to talk to the backup server. Creating the VLAN for backups works to achieve this. I plan to create inbound ACLs on each port to allow only the ports and IPs for the backup network and allow everything we need for corporate data.I read somewhere that you can't have ACLs on an etherchannel and I just want to get it all straightened out. I notice I can't add an access group to the port-channel itself but I can on the port- channel member ports. Is this all I need to do or does this not work?

There are green LEDs lit next to the jumpers inside, but that is all. I am not able to get any response from it on the console at all anymore.The LEDs that are lit green inside are labeled "CR5" and CR6".
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have inhereted a network in a school that is using a Cisco Catalyst 500 series switch. Previously, it appears that this switch was never managed (just plugged in and using it's default configuration). I am trying to change that and be able to control the switch using the Network Assistant or just the web-based device manager. I understand that you cannot perform the initial configuration with anything past Windows XP, because the broadcast flag setting past XP causes an issue where the IP address of the management computer is assigned but not the default gateway. Despite this, I am still unable to connect to the switch for management purposes. Here is a list of the steps I have taken, all of which have been unsuccessful:
1) I tried using a computer running Windows XP. The same issue occurred. It was assigned an IP address from the switch but did not get a default gateway. It was unable to access what should have been the default IP of the switch; 169.254.0.1
2) I tried it in Windows Vista by editing the registry to turn broadcasting off. It still did not work.
3) I tried it in Windows 7. Still no luck.
4) In all 3 operating systems, I tried using the "Advanced" setting in the TCP/IP configuration to add a default gateway of 169.254.0.1 to no avail.
