Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2960S 12.2(55)SE3 Flexstack Unable To Configure Etherchannel
Jan 15, 2012
I am trying to configure etherchannel on 2 2960S connected by a flexstack with 2 ports g1/0/52 and g2/0/52 on each 2960.
these switch are connected to a CAT4500, I know that I can only use LACP because of cross-stack but when I force the switch to use LACP witch channel-group 2 Mode active the switch do this :
%With PAgP enabled, all ports in the Channel should belong to the same switchCommand rejected (Port-channel2, Gi1/0/52): Invalid etherchnl mode
% Range command terminated because it failed on GigabitEthernet1/0/52
I don't know how to bundle the 2 ports on the 2960 stack. each time I use : channel-group 2 mode on there is no error
but the switch do this :
*Mar 1 00:45:32.290: %EC-5-CANNOT_BUNDLE2: Gi2/0/52 is not compatible with Po2 and will be suspended (trunk mode of Gi2/0/52 is dynamic, Po2 is trunk)
*Mar 1 00:45:32.531: %EC-5-CANNOT_BUNDLE2: Gi2/0/52 is not compatible with Po2

I would like to use flexstack to stack two Cisco 2960S 48 Port switches (2960S-48TD-L) for redundancy. Each switch will have a single 10G uplink into our Nexus 7K. One switch in the stack will terminate to linecard 6 (N7K-F248XP-25) and the other switch will terminate to linecard 7 (N7K-F248XP-25). My question is how many flexstack cables are needed? Do I need only one cable or do I need two to connect the two 2960s ?

I have been trying to make a stack with two 2960S. They have the same IOS but they behave as they were not connected.One is in production and I am attaching a brand new one to it; in the one that is in production I get these 2 messages:
FlexStack Module SmartChip Authentication Failed.I tried switching the modules and the outcome is the same, so I think the modules are ok.What to you recommend, is there a way to bypass this authentication?

I have a 3750 as core switch, adding 2 stacks of 2960S to connect. I want to establish etherchannel between the 3750 and each additonal 2960S stack, do the channel group numbers between the 3750 and the new 2960s have to match? 3750 has two channel-groups(1 and 2) already configured. Need to know, I would create 2 additional channel groups (number 3,4) for each of the etherchannels between the 3 2960S Stacks and 3750? OR channel-group # is local to the device.

make a couple of SF300 switches to work properly with a C2960S-48TS-L that acts as core switch/basic router. I can't seem to figure out how to assign VLANs correctly in trunk and access mode on the SF300. The 2960S are a no brainer with IOS commands but the webgui in the SF300 is a pain.
I've configured the 2960S with 3 VLANs and I would like to have the SF300 switches connect to the C2960S-48TS-L through VLAN trunk and then configure the ports on the SF300 switches to belong to the assigned VLANs of my choosing. I would also like to have all the SF300 switches management interface in VLAN 50.
I've partially described the enviroment below.
VLANs
Data VLAN 10: 192.168.10.0
Management VLAN 50: 10.20.30.0
Voice VLAN 100: 10.10.10.0

I have hybrid network in which I want to configure VLAN on Cisco 2960 S switch. I have unmanged switch where my DHCP server and other servers are connected. Now I created two VLANs on cisco 2960S and they don't talk each other, but as soon as I connect unmanaged switch to 2960S switch, both VLANs start communicating which I don't want. I want to listen server traffic from unmanaged switch from both VLANs but simultaneously I don't want to communication between two VLANs.

I have a problem with extending the LAN on a client site . They are looking to extend the LAN with a 2960S-series switch. Already in place is a 4510 switch which the 2960 is connected to via fibre. The 2 switches are both set up but there is no connectivity as I cant ping between them or anything. The management VLAN on the 2960 shows line up, protocol down, which I believe means the VLAN is enabled but there is a form of physical mismtach on the ports. I have attached the configs of both switches. I feel it might be a problem with GBIC module compatibility. The SFP installed on both ends of the switch are GLC-SX-MMD. On the 4510, the SFP sits in a twingig converter (CVR-X2-SFP) but there is no light on it at all when the cables are plugged in.

I am having trouble trying to configure my cisco 2509 cisco router for access server. I have two guides shown below: URL and URL
However I am running into some problems. I can go through the second guide up until it asks me to do this command
Step 5: Configure the transport input protocol on the async lines to Telnet.
Access_Server(config-line)#transport input telnet
I cannot put in Transport Input, I only have the option of doing Transport Output let me show some lines from my console:

Im not sure whats going on. I have two routers(cisco 2600 series) plus my 2509 cisco router I am going to use for a access server. I have a two switches 2950 series and I have the access server connected to all of them via a octal cable.
Here is the configuration from the access server:

I have a problem with an etherchannel between a cisco 2950 and a couple of catalyst 4506. The cisco 2950 is connect via an etherchannel to the catalyst 4506A. The channel consist of two port on both side and is in trunk mode, encapsulation dot1q.Now i have the necessity to connect the 2950 to the other catalyst, 4506B. So, i copy the same configuration on the 4506B, but when I unplug the two rj45 cables from the catalyst 4506A to plug them in the 4506B the etherchannel doesn't go up in any way.

I am about to configure 4 Gig ports for EtherChannel. I've been reading about EtherChannel and it seems easy enough to configure. I have a host (server)which I am going to connect to these 4 - gig ports. This is new for me and would like some feedback for those that have used EtherChannel on their layer 2 switches. The gig ports will be an access port with VLAN XX.

Is it possible to have ether-channel across 2 switches? As an example, having a server with 2 ports connect, 1 port to Switch-A and the other to Switch-B and then use those two links on the sepatate switches but to the same server to form an Etherchannel.
The Switch-A and Switch-B are 3560 series

We have two 6k5 configured as vss and it is working fine. For each floor we have a 3750 stack. In each 3750 stack we have 4 switches. From the first 3750 we have a fiber link to the first 6k5 and from the fourth switch we have another fiber link to the other 6k5 switch, for each floor/3750 stack, both configured as etherchannel. We installled each 3750 stack/floor in different maintenance windows; in all these installations we have problems configuring the etherchannel. After we configure the etherchannel on 3750 stack and in the vss, the etherchannel does not go up/up. We see the etherchannel up/down; after a lot off work, try and error, configuring shut/ no shut, adding and excluding links from the etherchannel; in any aleatory moment the etherchannel goes up/up and works fine. Is there any bug related with these IOS versions, or is there any right procedure to configure etherchannel from vss to 3750 stack?

I am trying to review the port-channel configuration on a 6500 series. I am issuing the "show etherchannel summary" command and the out put shows the Group, Port-Channel, and Ports. It does not show me the protocol that is in use such as PAgP or LACP. Does this have to do with the Etherchannel in the "On" mode rather than "active", or "Auto"?

We have a problem with the throughput over etherchannel in LACP with 2 or 4 ports. It is iSCSI traffic (vmware esxi 4.1 U3) is going from 2 separate NICs (ports) to the etherchannel (with 2 or 4 ports) that has a SAN connected (Nexenta).
The SAN is configured in passive LACP and the switch is in active LACP. Actually it does not matter if we do LACP or just MODE ON, still same result: ~1GBit/s throughtput in either direction. Like already mentioned, 2 or 4 ports in the etherchannel make no difference, or the configuration of the etherchannel.
I will post some config data below, but here is the question: Why can't we see traffic beyond 1GBit/s? Source and destination are capable of doing much more than that (vmware esxi RAID 5 of 1TB SATA; SAN 16 x 1TB NL-SAS). If we look with CNA, we can see that the traffic is balanced equally over the etherchannel ports. With or without QOS or flowcontrol, no difference. This whole traffic happenes on this switch.

I have recently split the voice vlan (10) from the data network (1), and am wondering why my catalysts and router do not require an interface Vlan10 statement. In the past I used OpenBSD boxes to do the routing, and I first needed to configure vlan 10 on the interface before I could get inter-vlan communication to work. With these Cisco devices it works, and I am wondering if it is because of VTP, for the fact that the ports maybe just pass all traffic, or is there some other explanation? Below is the setup, and firmware is up-to-date on all of the devices.
When I plug a phone into the POE SGE, the phone turns on, obtains an address on the proper subnet, and conversations are clear (whereas without the ip nat inside on the new subnet the calls had a lot of static). Possibly the reason that it works is because the phones properly create the tcp/ip packet, and it hops over the trunks and creates the states so that traffic routes back properly. I will install wireshark to see exactly what is going on, but is there a simple explanation that I am overlooking?

When you aggregate multiple fiber GBICs together on the 3508G, do you configure it as an etherchannel, or as fibre-channel? I've looked around online for hours, but can't find it mentioned anywhere.

Is it possible to to build a Layer 3 ether channel from two separate physical switches (layer3) that are trunked together?I know you can easily do this on a single switch and on stacked switches which I've done but in this case the customer have purchased two 3560X's which are not stackable yet want redundancy. The purpose of the etherchannel is to connect both switches to a private circuit provided by the hosted partner then route to the same setup in the DR location to different subnets.

I was configuring link aggregation between a Cisco3750 and Cisco SG200 and the switched network went down just a few minutes after the port channel came on.I rebooted the SG200 and all hosts came back up for a minute before I lost them again. The etherchannel was between two trunking ports. I never set link aggregation on the SG200, could that be the reason? All machines are connected to the SG200. The 3750 is only being used as a layer 3 device for inter vlan traffic.

Maybe this was listed in the release notes for the product and I missed it, but can this item support Etherchannel in a 2801 router? I installed the module into the router and the router recognizes the module. I can configure the ports as access or trunk ports, but I am unable to configure the channel-protocol or the channel-group for the Etherchannel. The IOS on the router is 15.1 M with the upgraded Bootloader version 12.3.

We have a new building where we added 3 network closets with 3750x stacks.We have 2 fiber gig ports connected to 2 microwave units and etherchanneled the to ports
We have the same setup at the corporate office except the connection is 2 fiber gig ports on a 6509. The 6509 is doing the routing
Now the problem is that we lost the connection to the management interface on only one of the three closets after a few days running. But some workstations at the corp office could reach it... others could not. The workstation were on the same VLAN. We solved the problem for a few days by shutting on of the fiber ports on the etherchannel. But is started happening again... now with PCs being installed at the new location.
The PC that was not working on the 3750x side could ping across to the 6509 but no further then that. It seems like an arp issue not routing because some devices are reachable and fully operational throughout the network.
Here is the configuration:
