Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2960s PoE Port Class Detection?
Aug 28, 2012
Connecting Avaya 9611G IEEE class 1 devices to a Cat2960s. How ever some of the phone are registering as class 3 devices no matter what interface the phone is connected to. Typical port config is as follows:
I have a single 2960s without stack module. The stack port has a status of down, however I'd like to disable it so that it does not generate a false alarm in my NMS. The documentation states that there should be a command "switch 1 stack port 1 disable" but the switch (running 15.0(2)SE2) doesn't seem to be available. Is this a dcumentation bug or is the command not there at all?
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 ?
We are using catalyst 2960S Lan Base IOS on Radio towers. We just bought 50 Accest points, thas are GPS synchronized. Problem is the APs need to be connected on L2-mac betwen each other. But at this time we are using port isolation on each switch (tower) by protected port function to isolate clients from each other.
My question is, is possible to specifi a Mac addresses in specific vlan thats can comunicate betwen protected ports? On tower is one Master unit and others are slave. I thing there is only 1 dirrection comunication - from master to slave.
I just bought a Catalyst 2960S to test out the feature "Port-Based Address Allocation" which is required for our factory. I followed the instruction from Cisco IOS and did all the steps but I could not get it to work, my network client did not received the expected IP address that I configured.
I tried to put QoS in a WS-C3560CG-8TC-S version 12.2(55)EX2.It shows 0 traffic in class-map. Here is the config My question is why I can not see the traffic via class-map?it should in the default Q if incorrect mark.I erased the config and config with the autoQoS, shows the same result.
class-map match-any VoIP description Voice IP Phone RTPmatch access-group 157 class-map match-any WEB description Internal Web, SSL Web, DNS query, Pinnaclematch access-group 153 ! policy-map QOSMARK class VoIP set dscp ef class WEB set dscp cs3 class class-default set dscp default
I was looking at a problem where a traffic from certain sites have a restricted bandwidth, an ongoing problem for a year or so, apparently this throughput never exceeds around 25Mbps. My customer describes a situation where the end to end utilisation rises, eventually flat-lining at around 25Mbps. how many extra systems come on line, this traffic never exceeds this rate, and end users complain of poor responses.
During my investigation I found that one of the switches (Cat 6509) in the traffic path has a policer configured on a vlan interface, the policer has 3 sections for different traffic based on DSCP markers, and a default (unconfigured) class-default. Various people have had a poke about with this config over the years, with the result that all the traffic has the CoS and DSCP tags set to 0. All this traffic is hitting the class-default in the policer.The link that this traffic hits the Cat 6509 on is a 100Mbps link.
If I was designing this from scratch I'd probably configure a rate for the class-default.my question is, in the case where no specific configuration has been entered for the class-default, how much bandwidth is allocated to this class?
In IOS verson 12.X there was a Bidirectional Forwarding Detection configuration however in IOS 15.0 this isn't available at least not with the same syntax. Is this feature not available in 15.0?
In 12.X this was the syntax of the command:switch virtual domain <number>.
In NX-OS release 4.2(8) a feature was introduced to supress duplicate IP address warning messages in DCI environments.When using the same HSRP addresses in both DCs but blocking the HSRP exchange, ARP still detects these duplicate configuration and writes log messages. There obviously is a feature to suppress this but I do not find any reference how to enable it.url...
I am interesting if 3560x supports ePAgP. I have VSS which is formed by two 4500x switches. Can I use 3560x, which is connected two both VSS members via 10Gb optics for Dual Active detection ?
I have the Cisco VSS consisting two chassis 6509.I have the system Active-Dual detection via Enhanced PAgP with one neighbor - standalone cisco 3750. All works good.I want to add one more neighbor - cisco stack 3750x with 3 members. Will this scheme work? And what is in danger, if the stack is split into two parts?
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?
I have C2960S-48FPS-L and C2960S-24TS-S both of them are using C2960S-UNVERSALK9-M image with version 15.0(2)SE on both I run "mls qos"
and on 48FPS-L I run "mls qos map cos-dscp..."on 24TS-S I cannot run it. there is no such command. there is just "mls qos rewrite..." and "mls qos srr-queue..." variants.
I thought that one image give the same set of commands...?
I have a 1Gb network set up whereby I have a Netgear 26 Port 1000Mbps unmanaged network switch at the heart of my home network. What I have the problem with is devices connected on any one of my 3 300Mbps access points drop out showing no internet but they really mean no network access unless i disconnect and reconnect or switch to another access point. Other things I get happening is one min i have a transfer speed wired connection to wired connection of 35Mb per second and then I only have 8 or less. I am wondering if I have cable issues but before I went out and spent about �100 on new belkin cat6 cable I would ask if there is software I can use to test all the devices on the network so I can replace the faulty item.
while i am configuring a port on switch .The switch reloads.After reload the show version says,System returned to ROM by bus error at PC 0x458F6C, address 0x0,show version from the effected switch is,Cisco IOS Software, C3750E Software (C3750E-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 12.2(58)SE2, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1).
I am currently having an issue with connecting a Catalyst 2960-S switch to a Small Business SG300 switch. When I connect them they are unable to form a link. When I do a show spanning-tree it says the mst link is in dispute.
I read some papers about QoS. The thing is that I have to implement 30 switches with QoS to connect to a lot of Cisco IP phones. The switches are Cisco 2960S with code image "C2960S Software (C2960S-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 12.2(55)SE3". Should I use autoQoS feature or manually configure them?. How should I treat uplinks between access switchs and core/distribution? I have a lot of doubts regarding queueing, because all the info I had read its for another model/image.
I'm looking at the WS-C2960S-48TD-L and have a question about the uplink ports. Is it possible to mix 10G on one uplink and 1G on the other? The datasheet says 2x10G SFP+, 2x1G SFP so I am thinking mixing is not possible.
just got new hardware and decided to try the newer USB port for IOS upgrades. I could not get the switch to recognize my 2gig flash drive. Do I need a proprietary stick or special format?
I also noticed when I removed it the switches crash dump and rebooted?
When using dynamic configuration tools, if I choose 2960 (not 2960s), I have the option to choose RPS2300 as redundant power, but when I choose 2960s, I cannot choose RPS2300. However, in a document describe both 2960 and 2960s, it said that RPS2300 can be used. Does RPS2300 support 2960S?
Recently I'm working with my client to setup their network and he want me to limit user access internet bandwidth to 2 Mbps and the topology show below.Users ---> Switch ---> NAT Router ---> (int gi1/0/24 - qos apply) Edge Switch ---> INTERNET ROUTER (12Mbps) --->> INTERNET,This is my configuration, but it doesn't work, the end user still able to get more than 2Mbps internet speed.Access-list 100 permit ip any any dscp default,class-map match-all QoS_Floor_Limit, match access-group 100.
I would like to enable port security to hardcode the MAC address on the ethernet switch. There are 5 ethernet ports in the same ethernet switch to be assigned for one person (one note book), e.g. port 5, 6, 15, 16 and 23. The model of ethernet switch is cisco 2960S and one MAC address is configured on 2960S.
1. Does 2960S support this requirement to allow input the same MAC address to 5 different port?
2. If yes, can ethernet switch "smart" enough to forward the packages to "active" ethernet port which is connected to notebook and the rest of four ports are inactive.
3. if no, any solution or any work around to achieve this requirement
We are designing a LAN Network for ourselves.The proposed design is as follows:
4 x 2960S switches in a Stack Access-Stack-I 4 x 2960S-PoE switches in a second Stack Access-Stack-II
2 x 3750X switches in a Stack Core-Stack
Now I would like to connect it in the following manner ?First,I would like to use EtherChannel using the 10Gig LinksSecondly, I would like to use Cross-Stack EtherChanel too.I have given a graphical illustration of the connectivity Now my Qs: a) Will the 2960S supports EtherChannel using the 10G links and the 3750X too... b) Does the proposed solution will work... or It will have any problems.
I have two switches (2960S's) both with IP Phones on VLAN100..We need to monitor voice traffic via a monitor port on SW1 of all VLAN100 traffic on both switches.The following is what we have configured, but we cannot see VLAN100 traffic on SW1
According to Cisco doco you cannot have a SPAN and RSPAN on the same session, however since these are two sessions on SW1, I would have thought it to be OK.
I have a running setup having 2 Cisco 2960s 24 TS switch with Stack configuration. Now I want to add one more same Cisco switch. My questions are:-
1) How can I do this...(Should follow the same process as I did before.
2) Could I do this without impacting the service. i.e. without rebooting the switch.
3) What should be the connection archiecture as of now since there is two switch so it is connected 1 -1 and 2-2. but for 3 switch should we require to change the connectivity.
i did on cisco 2960S switch at user ingress interface. but the marking is not showing in show policy-map interface gig 1/0/10 interface and ACL is not showing any match.
I also had a config reference from 2960S cisco guide.
access-list 103 permit tcp any any eq 80 access-list 104 permit tcp any any eq 23 access-list 105 permit icmp host 172.24.68.4 any
We have seen high CPU utilization on some Cisco switches of type 2960S. Also we got info, that applications are running with poor performance or with interruption.Following IOS is loaded: C2960s-universalk9-mz.122.55.SE
They have a /28 wan adress coming from ISP, that gives out 100Mbps, going to a Cisco 2960S switch (ver. 12.2) the switch is only holding 1 vlan. Connected to the 2960 are 3 firewalls/routers from other manifactors, each creating their own network. The customer wishes for a solution where each final FW/router gets minimum 33% and maximum 100% of the bandwidth, depending on how much each final Fw/router are in use.
I use the Switch 2960S support PoE and 10 access points cisco.I have one more question:
-- If all 10 access points cisco use copper cable to connect to 2960S, 5 access points use power adapter and 5 access points use power from Switch. How Switch 2960S will provide power for 10 AP or switch 2960S will understand and only provide power for 5 APs?
