One of my clients is using Cisco catalyst 2955 industrial switch.I am doing the configuration for them and come across one setting of FCS Error Hysterasis Threshold. I know FCS is Frame Check Sequence.
I do not understand is what is the meaning the setting of Hysteresis in term of percentage stand for what purpose?For example, the default is 10 percent. If I set the value to be lower 5% and what is the impact on that? Is this more stringent than default of 10% or less stringent than default of 10%?
we have bought 2911 router recently has to set up VOIP line seperately for the network we have two two broadband service provider:
1. how can i use 1 line as an active and other line as a failover(when 1 line is down other line should automatically bear the traffic).clear config will be useful. NATTING using MAtch address objects( roughly )
broadband service provider 1: 97.89.X.X 255.255.252.0 broadband service provider 2: 10.0.x.x 255.255.240.0
2. there are only 20 users to set up a voip line now. here we have telecom provider where they should route the traffic to make any international calls( say telecom public ip 200.200.109.110)from lan - wan everything is allowed from wan -lan we have to allow only telcom provider IP(200.200.109.110)
I have some error messages in the Nexus 7000 log, after searching i cannot find an adequate explanation, pretty much the only thing i can find is below and i don’t think it is very relevant to my situation. The device is in production and so reloading and pulling card willy nilly is the last resort.
Device = Nexus 7018 IOS version = 5.1(2) Log messages= 2011 Dec 2 14:52:35 IAS01LVSWIPC01 %OC_USD-SLOT8-2-RF_CRC: OC2 received packets with CRC error from MOD 6 through XBAR slot 1/inst 1 and slot 2/inst 1 and slot 3/inst 1
I'm been telnetting onto a 2955 and then upgraded the IOS and enabled ssh version 2 and then issues a "write", when I came back the exec-timeout had been issued and I was logged out of the router and now it is asking for a username and password and not just a password liek it did before enabling ssh. I havent yet put a username and password on yet, just the telnet.What would the username be if I havent set one?
I'm on a Cisco 2955 switch and need to get ssh working which I have done on another 2955 (but don't have near me), what am I doing wrong?

I'm about to configure radius on a 2960 and 2955 switch as I have been testing this on a 1841 router and to my dismay I can't see the options to configure radius, do these L2 switches not supoprt radius?
edit - apoligies I forgot the "aaa new-model" all ok now
I have installed Cisco 2955 Switch which already have x.x.x.x EA12 IOS and I copied x.x.x.x.EA13 into the flash: with intention to have EA13 enabled for IOS. I set the Global config for boot system by 'boot system (no falsh)x.x.EA13;x.x.EA12' but then also no luck and was showing EA12 in 'sh ver'. I then deleted the EA12 IOS and set the 'boot system flash:x.x.EA13'. I also had varified IOS EA13 by 'verify flash:IOS Filename', it verified the IOS.
But when I reloaded my switch, I'm unable to login and its in 'switch:' prompt (ROMmon mode - I believe). I then tried for flash_init, load_helper, dir flash: (showing me EA13 there) and finally boot flash:IOS Image file but no good news here... Output like this
Error loading "flash:IOS Image File EA13" Interrupt within 5 seconds to abort boot process. Error loading "flash:c2950-i6q4l2-mz.121-12c.EA1.bin"Interrupt within 5 seconds to abort boot process.
My guessing is that the IOS is corrupted (but its not showing me Error loading Image blabla...) I'm trying with EA14 of 4MB and I have 3 MB free spare and decided to remove EA13 first then through XModem try to upload EA14.
Any useful way and recommend me deleting EA13 and upgrading EA14... Also option to set boot image with having two IOS at the same time for permanent use.
I can't seem to send config changes to our syslog server on a 2950, I'm fine with 2960's and 3750's. The Cisco 2955 is using the latest IOS c2955-i6k2l2q4-mz.121-22.EA14.bin.
I come across to use the Catalyst Switch 2955 and it has two Relay Connector with one Major (MAJ) and one Minor (MIN) as below picture.There is command line to trigger these two Relay Connectors. As below command to set the Relay Connector to minor for monitoring the power supply: alarm facility power-supply relay minor
1. My questions are when there is power-supply faulty, the Minor Relay Connctor (right picture) will be short-circuited, right?
2. If we connector the two ports (ports 4 & 5 at the left picture) with a normal cable to drive an Alram Bell (in short-circuiled or closed loop situation), do we need an external power supply to the Alram Bell? Or there will be power supply from Catalyst 2955 to the Alram Bell as well?
I am having an issue with this device after setting the ip address and rebooting. I have tried renaming the config.text file without success. I have also tried the steps mentioned here: [URL]
I have found that the Catalyst 2955 series switches do not use an external MODE button for getting a switch into the switch: prompt, but they use a break sequence like routers do to get into Rommon state URL
So I was wondering if there is a similar mecanism that applies to other kind of Catalyst switches, like 2960, 3560 or 3750.
I am working on a QoS design which I hope to test at some point, but at this stage its from the books.My question is how to decide which queue and threshold to use for video traffic, then lower priority traffic.I understand the shaping and sharing commands, its the queuing and threshold bit I'm not clear on.The plan is to use the priority-queue for EF marked voice, this will be policed on ingress to provide an upper limit to EF traffic levels, then my second priority traffic will be video. Which queue will get serviced first once the priority queue is empty, and how do I decide which threshold to allocate my video traffic to? The document ion is not at all clear, I want to prioritse my traffic in the following order:
1 voice, use the priority queue 2 video, this to get serviced ahead of data, after voice. 3 interactive data 4 Bulk data 5 Best effort
So Q1 settings are ignored due to priority queue. Q2 gets 70%, Q3 25% etc.Is it as simple as putting video into Q2 T1, then interactive data into Q2 T2, will Q2T1 get a higher priority over Q2 T2 once the PQ is serviced?
I've already found this kinds of cases, in this community. So, It seems that Changing the current configuration to 'mls aging fast threshold ## time ## ' is most suitable in our situation.But, I don't know how to calculate the apt threshold value and time value.

Recently I faced 1 issue in MLS 6509.MLS had all Gig modules in slots 6,7,8 taking System detected CRC error rate on port ASIC data bus exceed fatal threshold, ("System detected CRC error rate on port ASIC data bus exceed fatal threshold".) causing the module reset by the SUP. After this active SUP causing it to failover the standby. This process was continuing every few minutes resulting in the SUPs on MLS rolling.what could be the issue for Sup rolling reset?
Suppose I have a 3 member stack of 3750x switches. Members a, b and c.I have all 3 members stacked with all 3 *data* stacking cables in a daisy-chain topology. The 50 cm data stacking cable from switch a (on the very top) to switch c (on the very bottom) just barely reached.Of course, that means the 30 cm *power* stacking cable didn't reach between a & c. Right now, the power stacking cable goes from a to b, and then another cable from b to c. Leaving me with a useless extra 30 cm power stacking cable.
My question is, can switch "a" receive power from switch "c" through switch "b"? Is this just a big electrical "bus"? What if the power supply in switch "b" is removed?Just wondering if there is a need for me to get a longer power stacking cable (one of the 150 cm power stacking cables).
Our sister site had a new building and the network it was supposed to resemble the network on this site with link redundancy as far as the edge switches.After 6 months asking for the password to the equipment I finaly got it and started to plan the deployment of some phones, I got a little confused as to the layout of what had been done as CDP was not showing what I had expected.
I then used CNA to map out the site.We have 1 main server room (at the top of the picture with the two 4507 cores and a number of fixed config 1U switches)And 3 further wiring rooms at other points in the building with fixed config 1U switches.
(And a wan link to this site)In my opinion the design as it stands is significantly flawed in redundacny with multiple points of failure, and its efficiency is very poor.
i have a strange problem in my campus network.im trying to run port security on my access switches which they are 3550 with ios c3550-ipservicesk9-mz.122-52.SE when i run the port security with Sticky option, even i put 1000 mac address for just learning on the port but when i issue the switchport port-security command every pc connected to that port loses its connection with network UNTIL i enable dhcp snooping!!! all my client are getting they ip address from DHCP server but strange thing is that how on earth i have to enable DHCP snooping to port security work properly? also when i check the configuration under the interface when dhcp snooping is not yet enabled switch doesnt add any mac address under the interface so no one can work until i enable snooping and then switch adds mac addresses under the interface configuration.is this Bug on this version of IOS?[code]
I was testing on 802.1x function on Catalyst 2950. the funtion itself work fine with my radius. but after I have setup the aaa new-model, I have no access to my switch!everytime I telnet it prompt me username, but I didn't create any user!!
how to recover to the origianl status, just prompt to input password but not username needed, and with 802.1x enable ofcause. [code]
The router 1841 is connected directly to the layer switch. the network diagram is below:
Office A --> Switch (L3) --> Router 1841 --> Internet --> Office B
However, when I transfer the file from Office A to office B, the speed very slow ( only around 40 kb/second), and there are an input error and CRC error:
Cisco-R1841#sh interfaces FA0/1 FastEthernet0/1 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is Gt96k FE, address is 0019.e02f.03dd (bia 0019.e02f.03dd)
I am setting up an ASA5515 to replace an existing Linux based firewall. Unfortunately the ASA5515 does not support source based routing.I have two internet connections currently used for specific connections - the second connection is NOT a failover connection.I have the default route to Internet connection 1.I want to route smtp out the second Internet connection.The routers connecting to the internet are a 877 and an 878The options I am considering is a layer 3 switch between the firewall and the routers to enable source based routing or replacing the 2 routers with a single router and the appropriate wic interfaces.

After formatting the CF, the router is able to see the flash without a problem. I copied files to the flash - still able to see the contents okay. The problem ia that if i restart the router with the new flash, i get this error:

I have just moved to the 3750X switch and have connected it to a 6509E. From the beginning I was having OSPF encryption errors, followed by flood warnings, LSA issue's, duplicate IP's which is baffling me.
There are no IP's which match on either switch however the 3750X was continually power recycling causing the interfaces drop continually.Even after disconnecting from the 6509 the 3750X continue to behave in the same manner. Could there be some issue with this switch?
