Cisco Switches :: Disable Password Expiration Requirement On SG300?
May 13, 2012
I have a dozen or so SG300 switches and a few months after configuring and deploying them, I have noticed that as I'm logging back into them, I'm being told that I'm required to change my password as it has expired. The problem I have with this is that we pick a super complex password and stick with it because we have bots that telnet to the switches and pull configs and make config changes. I do NOT wish to have this enforcement turned on for these switches and I think it should be an option but neither the Admin Guide, the command line, nor the GUI seem to have any mention of this "feature". how to disable this feature?
i have a SG300-28 switch here but I do not have the password to login the device. From the startup config of the switch, I see the login password is encrypted. Are there anyway for me to access the device without reset it?
I have a Cisco ASA5510 firewall that has SSL Web VPN functionality and is utilizing AD Server as Authentication server for users.However, we have a policy to change password at certain point of time. Users in the office have no problem. They just login their PC and change password. Users outside of office is a pain when their password is expired. Is it posible for them to change their AD password thru VPN using Cisco Anyconnect?

I have a problem. Yesterday I have upgraded both my SG300-20 switches to firmware v1.2.7.76. Now I cannot login on of my switches, unknown username and password. I am absolutly sure I have the password, because they are the same and I just upgraded it. I have re-booted the switch, but without any luck.
Trying to ssh from our QNAP to our switches and copy the running-config.These tests are on an SG-300. When ready well be doing the same thing on all of our 2960's. So maybe the SG300 is the problem.
The Cisco E1000 I just purchased provides two connections: a main connection, and one for "guest access." I've successfully disabled the need for password on the main, but the guest access still requires that I assign a password. How do I make this connection open and accessible as well?
These are our first switches and seems like GUI is lot different than the online. Out intervlan routing is o not working. I am absolutely sure that I setup the switch in L3 mode since it allows me to create mutiple interfaces. I am hoping that this GUI issue is related to interVLAN routing.
Below is the blog I started for InterVlan issue [URL]
This is the link for online simulator and what I see in its IP tab. I know this switch is not SG300. [URL]
This is what I see on our switch.
Our switch version switchd64684#show version SW version 1.1.0.73 ( date 19-Jun-2011 time 18:10:49 ) Boot version 1.0.0.4 ( date 08-Apr-2010 time 16:37:57 ) HW version V01
I have SG300-28P that I am using as layer-3 switch. Recently I ran in to SG300-52 switch and even though loading same firmware doesn't give me option to do layer-3 switching. For SG-300 I see options in GUI to create vlan interfaces under IP information section, while SG300-52 has IP information option only under the management section.let me know if these are 2 different hardware types and L3 is not possible on SG300-52. If its possible to enable L3 switching on SG300-52?
I'm replacing 2 3COM 4500 Swithes with the SG300-52 Cisco switch. We have 3 VLANs, 10, 20, 100. The switch is set for Layer 3 and I have setup DHCP relay. what settings i should set on the Cisco for the following setups:
We have several of the SG300 Serices switches. We use them to route VLAN traffic to Remote Offices, Internet Connections, and WiFi Access Points.In one remote office we have a SG300-10 setup to route the HQ Network and the remote Office Subnet. The SG300 is Connected to HQ via Fiber and has multiple Tagged VLANs on it. If I do speed tests over the Fiber Link on the Incoming Tagged Netwotk I get Decent performance, 80Mbs. If I switch to a networtk that is not priginating from HQ, and have the SG300-10 route packet, I get dismal performance. 15-20Mbs.
I Fireded up a New SG300-28P FW v1.2.7.76. Added a the HQ VLAN 101 and new VLAN 1025 . Mapped some Tagged and untagged ports for each. Switch was connected to HQ Network as untagged VLAN 101. I put a laptop on an Untagged VLAN 101 port. Ran some tests, cam back with 750-850Mbs. Great. Put the same laptop on a Tagged 101 Port, Configured the NIC for Tagged VLAN 101, Same test, same Speeds, 750-850Mbs.I then Configured laptop for Tagged VLAN 1025. Connected to tagged VLAN 1025 port. Ran speed tests, resuts were 15-20Mbs!
I then Configured laptop for Untagged VLAN 1025. Connected to unagged VLAN 1025 port. Ran speed tests, resuts were 15-20Mbs!It was only the Laptop and the Connection to the HQ net on the SG300-28P. Why is the performance of this unit soooooo poor when it needs to route?Other Switches have FW v1.0.0.27 or FW v1.1.2.0. They have Similar speed issues. All Configured for Layer 3.
does the SG300 switches can be used with Microsoft NLB in Multicast mode?I know on traditional Catalyst switches you can statically "map" IP's to mac's and then to multiple ports but this doesn't seem to work correctly on the SG switches - it gives an error about the mac not being not Unicast?
Any snmpset commands to add, modify and delete vlan table entries on SG300-10 switches? I checked url... however this information is apparently only valid for catalysts. The latest firmware is installed and the provided MIB files are used.
I'm going to have several SG300-28P switches to setup. I'll need to create multiple vlans for data, voice, and wireless traffic. I have the following questions in setting up this configuration:
1) For managing the switches via IP, will LAN1 be the default management network? Should I create a seperate VLAN for managing the switches?
2) For uplinking the switches together, I plan to trunk a port to connect the switches together. What's the configuration on the trunk port to forward all vlans from one switch to another?
3) On some ports, I want to configure a trunk for two vlans (Data and Voice) where the phone has a pass through for PC. The phone supports tagging for the PC and the VoIP traffic. For example on port 10, would VLAN 100 and 300 be set to tagged?
I'm having alot of trouble trying to connect more that one LAG between two SG300-52 switches.Basically i have configured both switches with the same vlans. For 2 of the vlans i would like to connect them together between the two switches using LAG. Switch1 has Vlan 5 (ports 1-12) & Vlan 10 (Ports 25-36) with LAG configured on ports 1-2 and ports 25-26. I have setup the second switch identical to the first. But when i connect the LAG's there is no connectivty. If i disconnect one LAG the other starts working.Can you only have i interconnect LAG between switches?
I have two SG300 serie switches and two Gigabit connection between them. How do I configured these two links to work toghether like a one 2 Gigabit channel?
I have configured ssh on a 2960 to use public key authentication. Now that I can securely log into ssh without a password Is it possible to disable password authentication so that it is impossible to login without the key?
I have a customers Catalsyt 2950 switch come in for the configuration to be cleaned to factoy default, using the link below removed the customers banner and login information whitch worked

When i restart the switch and enter Enable mode I'm prompted with the password which i used when following the link above,
I want to remove all passwords so when the switch is redeployed to the next site who ever the engineer is that is going to be reconfiguring the switch is able to access privlage mode with out the password promt.
I have a question, does the SG300-28 support VTP and STP?. I want to add it to my network's VTP domain so I don't have to manage vlans manually on the SG300-28 and also be able to configure STP to keep my network loop free.
I need to know how to configure each port in switch SG300-10 to vlans, i need to configure one port "trunk" with catalyst switch and assign 4 ports to different vlans. any solution?
In the CLI documentation for the SG 300 Series, it shows sh ip route rip as a command. I have installed the latest firmware and that command is no longer available. Does the SG300 series support RIP?
We purchased a SG300-52 last week to replace a 5yr old Dlink which has worked perfectly. 1 day after the SG300 went it it started crashing with this fatal error problem so I reverted the firmware back from 1.2.7.76 (latest) to 1.1.2.0 but I still get the problems. It crashes when I have it on my lan with users connected or if I just have the switch on my desk with just my laptop connected, so it cant be a load issue or a network topology issue. I already have a Cisco SGE2010 on my network without problems.
I have a question about ACL and binding. I have a SG300 28P and a couple of other linksys switches and Access points that are connected to it via trunks. The cisco SG300 28P is running in layer3 mode and i have created a couple of vlans and one of them is a guest vlan. Now to my question, i create an ACL and an ACE that vill funktion so that guest vlan only can connect to the internet and not the rest of the internal network. And then i must bound the ACL to an interface port or lag, what i can see it is not possible to bind it to an vlan? so if i have a port on some of the other switches that is member of the guest vlan, vill the ACL on the SG 300 stop guest vlan trafic to the internal network that is comming from some of the other switches?
I want to set up a vlan only for the wifi APs and wifi clients on my network. They can't access to any server, only internet acces. I already implement this configuration and its working, but now I want to allowed a couple of laptops to connect to servers in other vlan. what should I do? Should I do it using Mac address of laptops or IP?
Yesterday I upgraded my SG300-10P to firmware 1.2.7.76. I was curious about the new SYN Protection feature, but it seems to do nothing on my installation.
The switch is running in Layer 2 mode. I have ACLs in place and DoS prevention is not enabled. I also tried clearing ACLs and enabling DoS prevention. As I understood the Admin Guide enabling DoS in the Security Suite Settings is not necessary for using the SYN Protection.
In my firewall I see about 300 pps with SYN flags only arriving. What "they" do is sending me SYN packest to port 80 from forged IPs, so that my system should send SYN-ACKs to the victim system. In this case it is the Arab Bank. They are down at the moment...I think that is called a spoofed SYN flood attack.
So I thougt the SYN Protection feature should exactly solve that problem but it does not and does not show any "Last Attack" entries.
If I put a SYN filter in place it works, even if I put SYN Rate Protection in place. But that is just a dirty workaround. My firewall blocks those SYN packets with a SNORT rule.
How to get rid of Username Password prompt for VPN user connecting to computer with guest access on shared folders?If a VPN user types any word in the user name and hits enter without password, it gets in and sees shared folders, but I want this prompt to be disabled.
I am trying to connect an SG200 to a customer's existing network. The customer does not want to receive any bpdu frames from the SG200. The customer's port has bpdu guard configured to err-disable their port upon receipt of a bpdu.
How do I completely disable spanning tree on the SG200 so that it does not send any bpdus?
Migrating from 4.2 to 5.2 acs and have noticed there is no expiration date per internal user added. We expire users at different times due to their time on site. Is there something that has to be added to get back this basic feature we had before?
