Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2950 / 2620 / 2621 - How To Get WAN Connectivity Back To Switch At End Of Network
Jan 27, 2013
I have a lab setup to take my CCNA and CCNP and I'm having issues trying to get WAN connectivity back to a switch at the end of my network. My lab environment consists of 1 - 2950 switch, 1 - 2620 and 1 - 2621XM. I have 1 Ethernet connection from each router to the switch and 1 serial connection from the 2620 to the 2621XM. I have the serial interfaces in a shutdown state right now so there is no loop since I do not have Spanning tree setup on the ports on the switch yet.
Right now using the fast ethernet ports on the routers and I have no issues its when I shut down those Ethernet ports and try using the serial interfaces when I start having issues. So my network layout is Ethernet from switch port f0/4 to port f0/0 on 2620 and serial from s0/1 on the 2620 to s0/2 on the 2621XM. My 2621XM f0/1 is whats connected to the WAN and I have no issues getting to the WAN from my 2621Xm or my 2620 but when I try pinging any website or even my WAN default gateway from my switch I get nothing!
Ive also noticed that when I do a IP NAT translation (after accessing the WAN from my 2620) on my 2621XM the source IP is of my serial connection not the ip of my 2620 router? I have my default gateway on the 2620 as the the IP of my serial interface on the 2621XM and vice versa because my LAN network is 172.16.1.0 and my WAN is 172.16.9.0. I have a /31 setup between my serial connections 172.16.11.0 (s0/1) is on the 2620 and 172.16.11.1(s0/2) is on the 2621XM. I used the SDM (ver 2.5) to setup NAT to have f0/1 with Nat outside and s0/2 as Nat inside. Encapsulation is HDLC between the serial links. Ive attached the running configs of the switch and routers.
I have 2650XM router and 2620 Router Both routers have built in WIC T1 CSU/DSU cards
2620Router --
2620Router#sh int se0/0 Serial0/0 is down, line protocol is down Hardware is PQUICC with Fractional T1 CSU/DSU Description: DTE side MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1544 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255 Encapsulation HDLC, loopback not set

My question is that cisco website says there are two type of cable connections for this type of config --which are --T1 CSU/DSU ConfigurationSet one CSU/DSU to clock source internal, and the other CSU/DSU to clock source line. The linecode, framing, data-coding, and timeslots must be set the same on both CSU/DSUs.Four-Wire 56k CSU/DSU Configuration For my network connection which type of config i should use??Secondly i try to connect these ports by normal crossover cable it did not work.So for this type of connection i know i need T1 cross over cable-- which has RJ 48 connections at both sides.I check cable from ebay which is RJ45 RJ48 cross over -- will this cable work in my router to router connection.
Can't get cisco router and switch to see each other? When I connect the 2620 router to a 2950 switch no link lights turn on. It's the same when I connect any router to either of the two 2950 switches I have. I can connect to both switch and router from a pc using telnet and the router can connect to a regular tp-link switch. I'm a newbie when It comes to Cisco. Here's the running config for the router and switch. There Is no connection when using any of the switch ports to connect to the fa0/0 of the router. [code]
is it possible to assign a loopback address to a typical switch port on a 2950 switch? I want to be able to have some devices connected to a switch to test access lists and VLANs.
Randomly when I try to access to 2950 from management tools, switch is unreachable, I have to access from other switch and reload 2950.
Problem only is from managemt tool to managament vlan 1 2950.
The strange thing is that management interface is encountering a very fast increase of throttles, broadcast and ignored packets:
2950#show interfaces vlan 1 Vlan1 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is CPU Interface, address is 0023.3488.fd65 (bia 0023.3488.fd65) Internet address is xxxxxxxxxx MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255

It could be a hardware problem?, IOS has been upgraded.
One of my wi-fi site having 2nos cisco 2950 switchs. in that network some D-link unmanageble swithes also there and access points also connected to cisco switchs and D-link switchs.after one or two days i am not able to connect the wi-fi, then i need to restart the access point then only wi-fi is working fine.I upgraded the latest ios also.I connected some access points to the cisco switch ports, those ports are showing crc error messages like below. [code]
I have some 2620 routers and 2950 switches that have Console Ports that are serial. However my HP PC w.Win 7 dosent have any serial ports. I am looking for a USB to Serial converter that will allow me to access the console ports so I can configure these devices. I've read many old posts and still havent found a solution. Is it true that none of these cables work? Anything that will work on XP? (also have XP PC's).How about a RJ45 to Serial?? How about a PCI Serial card? I cant believe Cisco hasnt developed a conversion cable to use with their Console Cables?
I'm trying to access the CMS administration page from my browser. I've already tried 192.168.0.1 and that brings up my gateway (cable modem from Time Warner).
I upgraded a Catalyst 2950 switch and there wasn't enough room so I deleted the flash. The upgraded went well using tftp. It booted up fine. The I0S version includes crypto. But, I can't access switch via web browser or CNA. Port scan shows port 80 0pen. What am I missing?
Here is the flash. Directory of flash:/ 2 -rwx 112 Mar 01 1993 01:00:48 +00:00 info 3 -rwx 3722814 Mar 01 1993 01:02:58 +00:00 c2950-i6k2l2q4-mz.121-22.EA14.bin 4 drwx 4416 Mar 01 1993 01:03:45 +00:00 html 331 -rwx 112 Mar 01 1993 01:04:19 +00:00 info.ver 332 -rwx [code]....
I have a cisco 2950 switch, connected with 4Mbps of internet and number of users will access the internet. There is no restraction on bandwidth limit for users, if any body use high download the remaining users are facing the slow browsing problems.
So, if i can put a bandwidth limitation for every users the problem will be solved. how to restract the bandwidth on user bases.
I have two 3560G 24 port switches. Each of them connects to some 3560G or 2950 switches. Trunks between 3560G are set as 1000/full. Trunks between 3560G and 2950 are set as 100/full. show int status also shows the interface negotiation is 100/full for trunks between 3560G and 2950. The issue is I keep getting outdiscard errors in trunks between 3560G and 2950. At 2950 switches, I see Recv-errors too. I checked all the trunks traffic. They are totally not high. Only serveal mbps. Most time even lower than 1mbps.
I googled this kind of issue online. I see it could be possibly caused by high volume traffic higher than the capacity. But it appears the traffic there is not high enough to cause this kind of issue. Is there any possiblity that could cause this problem?
The below is 3560G trunk configuration for 2950 switch

In my lab, there are some machines that are connected using Cisco 2950 switches. Those machines belong to a VLAN.Now I need to modify the VLAN settings of the machines and as such I also need to modify the VLAN settings on the ports on the Cisco switches.
In order to do this, first I need to login to those switches, but due to a lack of knowledge transfer, I don't have the password. Is the some generic password?Second I will need to modify the VLAN settings on each individual port. How can I do this?
how to recover password and retrive configuration on Cisco switch 2950 and 3560.I know the way to press and hold the mode button and then plug in the power cord can reset the switch to factory default but it will reset everything to nothing. As such, it is not what I want and I want to keep the configuration file and able to use the configuration on the switch.
we are using 3750 and 2950 switches both of them do not support vlan up to 4000 .we need vlan about 3000 .Whic cisco series switch do support vlan up to 4000.
2950 S-SW1.3(config-vlan)#exi
Proposed configuration has too many VLANs for this platform. Reduce the number of VLANs proposed.
S-SW1.3(config)#end 3750 SW1(config-vlan)#exi
proposed configuration exceeds the limit of 1005 VLANs that can be supported on this platform. Reduce the number of VLANs proposed to be within this limit.
I have a Cisco 8510msr that is connected back to back with a 7206vxr across a 155Meg connection.I receive lots of Output drops on the 7206vxr interface facing the atm switch. When I do the following command:-
kwdair9#sh atm int atm 1/0Interface ATM1/0:AAL enabled: AAL5 , Maximum VCs: 4096, Current VCCs: 27 Maximum Transmit Channels: 0Max. Datagram Size: 4528PLIM Type: SONET - 155000Kbps, TX clocking: LINECell-payload scrambling: ONsts-stream scrambling: ON797522 input, 881483 output, 203946630 IN fast, 223768062 OUT fast, 0 out dropVBR-NRT : 110288 Avail bw = 44712 <====
I only have 44megConfig. is ACTIVEkwdair9# I only get 44Meg of the available 155Meg.There is no QOS on the router and the only commands I can find that vaguely see that refer to QOS are on the ATM switch:-
atm address 47.0091.8100.0000.0007.0d87.b201.0007.0d87.b201.00atm router pnnino aesa embedded-number left-justifiednode 1 level 56 lowest redistribute atm-static?why this is acting like a DS3 link and not a 155Meg link?
I have two site that has a copper wire ( 2 wire) connection between each router ( No Telco in between ). Now I want to use 1921 router with HWIC-4SHDSL-E card to connect these two site together. Can I use attach configuration to make the connection reference from the diagram ?
I have 1 2611xm router and 1 2801 router. For my own lab purpose, i want to configure them back to back to support voice services. I don't know what configuration will be required at each end. in 2611xm, i have NM-2V and its also detecting the card, so i hope it will work ? also what commands i need to run on both ends .
am using GNS3, and have the 16port switching module. I have created a PC instance and connecting to f/0/0 which is a layer 3 port, I can connect via layer 3 IPs. I then reconfigured and connected the PC instance via a layer 2 port f2/0 which is part of the 16port switch module. All 16 ports are by default in vlan 1. I assigned an IP of 10.1.9.1/24 to the VLAN and gave the PC 10.1.9.2/24. I cannot ping and I cannot even ping 10.1.9.1, the VLAN 1 IP. [code]
Configuration details: I have 2 nexus 5K switches and both 5K is connected to four 2960 access switches in each floor through fiber(shown in the attached picture). I have configured each VPC for each floor and portchannel configuration on 2960s switch to communicate to 5K switches. Now I am not able to communicate PC 1 connected in 1st floor to PC2 connected in 4th Floor.
I have attached topology map of my infra and the configuration files also. 1st floor switch and 4th floor swich have same configuration except IP address and switch name.
RACK 1 is the old rack and NEW RACK is the rack which is going to be procurred for some new Servers. All the Servers in the RACK 1 has a default gateway as PIX Inside IP. As of now the 3560 Switches acts as Layer 2 and does not have L3 IP routing enabled. How can I enable conenctivity between 192.168.36.0 range and 192.168.57.0 range wihtout making any change to current PIX inside IP address 192.168.57.1?Is it possible that I can enable IP routing on the 3560 Switches , create interface VLAN 36 and since already Switch 2 has it 's default gateway as 192.168.57.1 , Would the traffic from 192.168.36.0 be routed to 192.168.57.1 ? Or do I need to create static route for that ?Since L3 Routing is not enabled and since the 3560 Switches are just acting as L2 , the VLAN 2 - 192.168.57.0 range does not have any interface VLAN configured. When it is changed I would need to create interface VLAN 2 on 3560 Switches?
We recently had a pair of Nexus 5k switches setup in our network. We had professional services handle the initial configuration but they weren't able to setup config sync for us. Each Fex is connected to each 5k, so we need a switch-profile to maintain a consistent setup on our interfaces. I went through the process in Configuring Switch-Profiles, but when I check the status of the peer, it says not reachable. [code]
