Cisco Switches :: ESW 540 8-port Way To Make Device Behave Like Boring In-managed Switch
Mar 18, 2013
I bought an ESW 540 8-port switch, mainly for the POE capability over all 8 ports, so that we can power some SPA50X phones.The concepts of a "managed" switch are challenging for a newbie.Is there a way to make this device behave like a boring "unmanaged" switch ??We have plenty of bandwidth, and don't need to be troubled by QoS and virtual LAN's, or all the security stuff at this time.Making this device work like an unmanaged switch (aka plug-and-pray).

We have recently purchased SG 300-52Port Cisco Switch to support our Network but they constantly having some bizarre issues or I assume bugs, i.e. we cannot Telnet nor SSH to the switch now, whereas we were able to SSH before, we have set them up for Remote Log Services to get some syslogs and reports but no report have been generated nor logs,
I have done some testing through Wireshark and there are absolutely no reports / logs.We have some real issues with this switch and it’s hard to believe that this is a Cisco Product,
SG 300-52 Port Gigabit Managed Switch
Firmware Version (Active Image ) : 1.1.1.8
Firmware Version (Non-active ) : 1.1.0.73
Boot Version : 1.0.0.4

such as the SLM2048T can be configured as an managed switch. Our schools have laptop carts and we want to put switches in the carts so that the laptops will be plugged into the network when not in use and software installs, updates, etc. can be pushed to the laptops while they're in the cart instead of waiting for them to be taken out, powered on and pushed over wireless. I can find a 10/100 48-port unmanaged switch, but I really want a gigabit unmanaged switch, but they don't seem to exist so I was wondering if a managed switch can be configured and used as an unmanaged switch. I don't want to have to assign a static IP address to the switch.

I have bought this switch to try :
We (our company) have a new glass fiber internet from a provider with 5 ip-addresses in an /29 range. I try the accomplice the following. On port 1 comes the output from the provider. On port 2 till 7 I want to separate the ip addresses so can distribute these addresses to our lan, to a wifi hotspot for external company visitors etc. So on port 2 a ip to the lan, on port 3 a ip to wifi router

I just purchased a new SF-300 managed switch for the purpose of using it on the DMZ, so we can mirror the internet port and monitor traffic for my company. I have set it up from the web interface to miror port 1 to port 2 and that's pretty much it. I decided to test it before putting it in production, by hooking it up to one of my core network switches, connecting a laptop to it and trying to get online. It doesn't even connect to my DHCP server to get an IP address. If I put the laptop back on the same subnet as the switch management IP, I can still connect to the switches web interface. Isn't the basic functionality of a switch to pass traffic?
I should also mention that I'm not a network engineer, so there might just be something I'm missing with regard to a default setting that needs to be switched off?

I recently installed a Dell 5324 switch as my main switch and it's my first time using a managed switch at home. One thing I've seen as an issue in a corporate environment, and now here, is that managed switches tend to take a bit longer for a port to be active. Ex: a PC is turned off, I turn it on but if the PC boots up very fast the port may not be ready. All mounts fail. This is the issue I am facing with my HTPC. It runs Linux and has a SSD, and it has no UEFI bios to slow it down (which is good, I hate UEFI for that) so it's up and running within 5-10 seconds of pushing the power button. The network mappings fail because the port is not ready by the time it gets to the script that mounts everything.

We have a standalone Cisco SGE 2000.
We lost connectivity to the web user interface - it no longer responds on the configured IP address.From the manual we see that by default the switch get its IP address via DHCP - but we find no record of any ip address assigned to this switch.Is there a IP address that this unit defaults to when DHCP is not available? Also - what is the best way to connect to the console using Windows 7?

I'm searching for a managed switch that allows me to not only mirror a port/ports, but also to still use the destination port for the mirrors as a link to the internet/the rest of the network. Aside from this, I still need the VLAN functionality of good switches, and ideally PoE provided, too.
I have seen the majority of the features of this in the NETGEAR GS108E (http:url...), but this doesn't provide PoE to the ports and also requires Windows to log into.Is this a feature of many switches? I can think of many snooping applications where it would be incredibly useful.

I've just installed ACS 5.1 and noticed that it seems to count managed devices differently than previous versions.
I have a 500 count license which should be fine as I have about 100 devices which will use ACS for TACACS. On ACS 3.x and 4.x, I would set up AAA clients by using a wild card for the subnets that host our routers/switches, say 192.168.1.0/24, 172.16.1.0/24 and 10.1.1.0/24. when I do this with ACS 5, I get a Managed Device Count Exceeded error messasge becasue of the potential of more than 500 AAA clients. It seems to be counting every IP address in the subnet as a managed device, even if there are only a handful actually in use. Is there a way around this short of having to manually enter (and maintain) the exact IP Address of every managed switch and rotuer which will use the ACS server for TACACS?

I have a recently purchased 28 port SG300 switch. Everything is working well. Unfortunately there is so much traffic flying around that a 10MB half duplex device is struggling to function as it is overloaded. Removing some of the sources of traffic fixes it.
Fortunately I only need to access that device from one PC on the network. That PC however needs to access everything else on the network.
Is there a simple way to shield the slow device from everything except traffic from the PC ?
The switch is in Level2 mode at the moment. Everything is on a single sub net.

I recently ordered and received Cisco Catalyst 3560-CG Series 8-port PoE switches (ws-C3560CG-8PC-S). In running the Cisco Network Assistant (Version 5.6(3)) they show up as an unsupported device. The documentation for this product indicates that you can use CNA to configure this switch. Is there a download or patch available to correct this problem?

The switch sge2000-g5 a small business switch, has a redundant power supply port built in the switch. It is a port that handles a 12v power supply. My problem is to find the exact device to supply the power to this port so I can have, obviously, a redundant power in my switch. This switch is actually out of production.

I need a ≥ 8 port layer 3 managed switch. What would be the cheapest solution for this?I've been looking at some stuff like Cisco 4908G, but that only supports 1000base-X. I need something that supports the standard 1000base-T. I've also looked at a Cisco WS-C3508G-XL-EN, but correct me if I'm wrong, this is only layer 2?

i have a 20 story high rise condo bldg that i am providing internet service to. I have a 8 port managed network switch on the 1st floor. I have a cat6 line ran from each port to the 8 distrabution closets in the bldg.My question is this if i am using a managed switch to send the signal to the other switches, do the other switches also need to be managed? or can i use unmanaged switches at the other locations. I do not want each condo on those switches to be able to see or comunicate with the other condos on those switches. I am using 48 port switches in the 8 distrabution closets.

I'm looking to get a layer 3 managed switch. The HP we currently have only does layer 2.I'm looking at a HP v1910-24g. It has 24 10/100/1000 ports and looks to be layer 3 as well.It looks like they can be had for around $350.Anything different I should be looking at with similar specs? Any issues with the v1910-24g?

I have two public IP's entering a location from two different sources. One is under our control and the other is a 3rd party. Lets say Ours: 1.2.3.1 3rd Party 1.2.3.2
One is coming in through a firewall/router and the other is a direct link. Each will come into a different network segment 192.168.200.0/24 and 192.168.210.0/24
some of the hosts one subnet will need to talk to the other.
My envisioned setup would be as follows.
1.2.3.1 will come in to the firewall/router into the managed switch. 1.2.3.2 will come in the the same switch but in a vlan The vlan will have a trunked port to the firewall/router to allow routing between the vlan (192.168.210.0) and the other subnet (192.168.200.0).

This is for a short temporary time until I get cisco 3560s in place. I have a 2921 configured and it is connecting to an HP non managed non VLAN switch and I cant get any traffic to pass from my computer to the router (pings or anything). Here is brief configuration that should be enough. [code]
Here are my vlans 1-default, 2-management, 192-data, 92-voice, i believe its running rapid spanning tree protocol. Do i have to take off encapsulation on my data vlan to get it to work or make the data vlan default vlan for everything. I am lost as to why this is not working.

We just purchased 8 managed switches POE to swap out our existing in preparation for our new phone system. We installed them all after configuring with static IP. Deployed... and all but two work fine. Any tips for troubleshooting why two of them do not work? There are a couple other switches in the building. Could it be that a switch "upstream" from the two non-functioning switches is causing an issue? If so, how do I find out? When we put back the two "dumb" switches all was fine.

I have an ESW 520 8-Port switch with a management ip address of 192.168.10.2 /24 After I reboot it, I can successfully ping it from a pc with an ip of 192.168.10.123 for about 50 consecutive times.After that, I get a "Destination host unreachable" (this icmp message is sent by my pinging pc (192.168.10.123).This obviously seems like a bug.Whenever I reboot it, it goes through the same sequence.

I need an 8 port switch to mange 6 web servers and while I haven't been able to decide whether or not I need a managed switch, I have recieved conflicting answers from sales reps with respect thier construction.In a 24/7 environment, is an SG100D-08 any different than a managed SG200D-08 switch in terms of the product components?Is the managed SG200D version any more reliable/dependable for 24/7 usage?

looking to pick a good managed gigabit switch for my central media server implementation.I will have probably 10-12 tvs connected to this along with other things like ip pbx extensions, music streamers, ip cameras etc.Now I can imagine about 2-3 tvs simultaneously streaming HD quality movies. In that case, I am assuming I will need a minimum 150-200mbps throughput switch. Is my assumption wrong?I have been looking at some switches which seem nice and relatively inexpensive but the throughput is much lower than that.If I wouldnt need that kind of throughput then can you explain me how do I come up with my max limit.I initially thought that since its going to be a gigabit switch it would be able to handle that kind of traffic through all its port at once, but I guess thats not a correct assumption. Throughput is what reall dictates simultaneous maximum? Am I correct?

I have sample lab dhcp-client ------- (vlan62) sg-300 switch (vlan62) ------ dhcp server
When I set on switch :
dhcp relay : enable
option 82 : enable
dhcp server address: ip of dhcp
When debug packets from client to server, there is no 82 option in dhcp discover packets. I mirror all traffic to mirror port with wireshark. I can see dhcp packets but without option 82.

We have an SG300 managed switch located in a small business of less than 10 PCs. There has been an ongoing issue with Internet speed. Is there any way that I can monitor the router for traffic so that I can see what might be causing the problem? I would like to focus on the WAN port and Internet activity particularly.

I want to configure my SRW248G4 switch thru console port. Unfortunately in this switch there is no RJ45 console port input, I can only see cosole port that is look like RS232 input. I bought two standard cisco console cables that have one end with db9 and one with RJ45.
Now I have and idea to put one end of one cable (db9) to switch, and one end (db9) of second cable in my computer (COM input/output)
I need to connect two RJ45 together - this is not a problem, I know how to do this. Here is the question :I know how pinout in my computer look like but i can't find pinout of console port in my SRW248G4. There is many pictures in Internet, for many Cisco devices but this isn't working. Maybe in LINKSYS pinout look different ?
