Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2960 - Cannot Have A Dial Tone
Sep 24, 2012
I have recently replaced some Catalyst 3550's with Catalyst 2960s PoE 48 port switches. Since the replacement I have had some issues with phones that will not have a dial tone. They are powered and the network config shows the correct configuration. They have the correct addresses for call manager and the router handling inter-campus calling. We tag the voice vlan separate from data and we use auto qos voip on the switches.
Basically i need to test to see where the telephone lines are terminated, because when they where built into the walls the used standard cat5e cable to terminate it to an RJ-11 jack but over in the wiring panel it (i assume it is anyways) terminates to an RJ-45 jack but im not sure if this is really the cable for the telephone or something else, so i have a phone connected to the wall jack and a computer on this end and i would like to send a dial tone or any tone in general that the phone can pickup.
I can not get onto the internet via dial up. The message says that I have no dial tone. Using the same line, I get a dial tone on the phone. I can get onto the internet via a DSL connection, but it will not make a connection when I have a telehone line inserted in the phone line jack. This problem started after the power went off and on quickly two times. I have followed all the instructions that I have found to reset the modem, but to no avail. Is it possible that the phone line jack needs to be replaced.I have a gateway laptop with Vista program.
I have an existing stack of 4 x 2960-S switches connected by stack cables.I would like to add another 2960-S switch to the stack but am unable to as the 2960-S will only allow 4 x 2960-S switches per stack.how I would add the 5th 2960-S switch to the existing stack of 4 x 2960-S switches.
I have a 24 port 2960-S that is not communicating with a 2960-LST that it is directly connected to over fiber. The link is up on the LST but will not come up on the -S. What command should I use to bring up this link? I have tried no shut from the (Config-if)# prompt.
I've moved a Cisco 887 router from a site where it was used to dial up on an ADSL line to a new site where we have a EFM circuit which terminates at a Cisco 1841 router managed by our ISP. I therefore need to re-configure our 887 router to work as a conduit from our servers back to the Cisco 1841 as its gateway.
I have asked from our ISP and they told me that i need to configure the 887 to use IP address 176.35.140.65 255.255.255.248 and its gateway should be 176.35.140.70. That's great advice in theory but I don't know how to configure this correctly
Our internal network is using subnet 192.168.42.XX which will need to be retained for local devices.
My management has tasked me to give them a high level overview of the different switching we can choose for our new building.
This is what I know so far.4 Closets, each closet has 450 ports,One MDF room that is will contain one UCS Chassis and a Nimble iSCSI SAN.
I am working on the spreadsheet and it looks like this (Not totally filled):

For the IDF's I was thinking of two 4010's.
I am using a 3750 as a default gateway for multiple Vlans on a few 2960 switches. The trunk lines are configured and working and I have assigned ip addresses to each of the Vlan interfaces on the 3750. My issue is that I can only ping the ip address on the Vlan interface of the 3750 if I have a working computer plugged directly into the Vlan on the 3750. I only have 3 vlans on the 3750 that have hosts directly connected (vlans 2, 10 and 40) the other vlans ( 20 and 70) don't have any clients plugged into them on the 3750 but the hosts reside on 2 different 2960s that connect via trunk ports. How do I keep the vlan interface on the 3750 switch pingable when I don't have hosts directly connected in that vlan on the 3750? (yes, I have enabled ip routing on the 3750)
I have a Cisco SG 300-20 as the core switch, layer 3. It is 192.168.4.6 on VLAN1 and 192.168.5.1 for VLAN2 (VOIP). All the ports are set in trunk mode. DHCP relay is setup on this switch.
The phones connected into a layer 2, Catalyst 2960-S switch. All ports are set in trunk mode. Default gateway on it is set to 192.168.5.1.
DHCP for both VLANs is provided by a Windows Server 2008 R2 server (the relay IP 192.168.4.15).
There is also an ASA 5510 in the mix which is 192.168.4.1. It has a route added to it for the 192.168.5.0 network to go to the SG 300 (192.168.5.1).
Just the two switches can ping each other on the 192.168.5.x network when I "add vlan 2" to the trunk port that is connected between the SG 300 and the 2960. The phones don't get DHCP on the 2960 switch. And I cannot ping 192.168.5.x from the ASA or anything else on the 192.168.4.x network.
After a bit of reading on intra-vlan routing for the SG 300 switch, I am thinking the SG 300 has to be the "center" of things so I need to make it 192.168.4.1 to be the gateway for both VLANs and change the ASA to 192.168.4.2 for VLAN1, etc. And I really can't do asymmetric routing with this switch.
I'm having a strange problem where I'm not able to get through a Cisco 2960-S L2 switch when connected through vpn, while LAN-WAN traffic is working fine.The situation on site is the following:When inside the network I'm able to get to the internet without a problem. The problem is within a vpn-session. When this session is succesfully started I can ping and manage the Cisco 2960-S switch, but I can't ping or manage the Dell switch from my laptop. I can however ping the Dell from the Cisco-switch. [code]
This will be this configuration for all input interface right ? For the Output part I'm lost, what do I have to do ? And for the 2960-2 do I have to put the same configuration ?
We recently updated a site2site link to metro ethernet, ISP call it 100mbps LAN Extension, but to me it is just QinQ over fibre connection. Most went well, one thing (annoying to me) is we can not ping our switches on both ends anymore.
We have a 3750 in headend and another 2960 on the other end. I used to be able to ping/telnet to the management IP from one to the other. Now we can not. I think the ISP is applying some configuration on ports of their customer-premises equipments (both are Cisco switches) but agent in ISP told me no. I thought there is some configuration on Cisco switch to block "MAC discovery" but i just can not remmenber what was that and google also failed me this time.
I have got two links from the same ISP, primary and secondary and connected to two different switch. The ISP have passed the trunk vlan of 30, 31 and 32 on both of the links. The ISP can't provide stp. I have got another managed 2960 series switch. How can I obtain failover on switch level.
I have IP phones connected to 2960 i want to segregate traffic traffic comming from IP phones which has a COS value of 5 and want to allocate a band width of 200 MBPS for those traffic .
Can any one share sample QOS configuration for achiving this in 2960 ?
Have Cisco catalyst 2960 IOS ver12.2(53)se2 when power on the power LED does not come up and on this is what shown on hyper terminal. what need to be done for this switch ?
Boot Sector Filesystem (bs) installed, fsid: 2 Base ethernet MAC Address: b4:d9:8d:27:4c:00 Xmodem file system is available. [code]......
Interrupt within 5 seconds to abort boot process. Boot process failed. The system is unable to boot automatically. The BOOT environment variable needs to be set to a boot able image.
I currently have a network with (8) 2960 Cisco Switches. (6) of the 2960 switches are etherchanneled back to (2) 2960 switches in the computer room. I would like to setup QOS on the (8) switches, however the traffic is very differnt on each of the switches. I have video, ip phone, server, printer, PC traffic. I am not sure what the best method of separating this traffic into differnt QOS queues.
I have an switch 2960 and i have made an SSH connection . But the problem is that whenever i try to open with my teraterm or putty it ask for username and after that password but does take the password. It shows an error of password what should be the problem.

I have a problem with may Cisco, it´s not start, only works the fan, the problem began when y turn down the Cisco and turn on again, but it´s not start. can something tell me what happen whit it.
We are going to upgrade our IOS on our WS-C2960G-48TC-L. But before we do that i want to ask whats the best IOS release to choose. Why we want to upgrade is because our switch software now don't support ssh just telnet access
I was configuring a new Catalyst 2960 switch and had forgotten to set the speed back to 9600 after downloading the new IOS software image. I finished doing all of my configurations and went in to line con 0 to change the speed back to 9600. The change was accepted and I did a 'wr' to save the change, but when I reload the switch it is back to 115200.
