Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3560E - Can't Get Into ROMmon
Sep 2, 2010
I upgraded four 3560E, 12.2(44) to 12.2(55)SEThree 3560 works fine, the last one stops after 17-18 seconds with a solid green LED. I cant get into ROMmon, the switch doesn't boot up. its like "dead but still alive"
My TS:
1: Removed all SFPs.
2: Reset PSU and fan modules.
3: Replace PSU and fan modules.
4: Try to get into ROMmon.(pushing mode button and break seq.)
Startup LED:0-1 seconds: SYST: Amber RPS: Amber STAT: Green DUPLEX: Green SPEED: Green
1-17 seconds SYST: Blinking Green RPS: OFF STAT: OFF DUPLEX: OFF SPEED: OFF
18 s--> (only testet up to one hour) SYST: Solid Green RPS: OFF STAT: OFF DUPLEX: OFF SPEED: OFF
A working 3560EStartup LED information. If I compare a working switch with the faulty switch I can see about 18 seconds into bootingSYST change very fast from green to amber and continues with booting,this doesnt happened on the faulty switch (solid green 18 seconds). Pushing MODE button, doesn't get me in to ROMmon, this works for all the other switches.On a normal 3560 it takes around 40 seconds before I get in to ROMmon. With this faulty switch it stops after 18 seconds(solid green) and it doesnt respond.

I have a few 3560E running Ver 12.2(50)se2. Can these boxes be configured to run VRF. I see a "sho IP VRF" option, but I do not see it available when under config t. Do I need to do a IOS upgrade to be able to configure VRF?

We have two Cisco 3560E layer 3 switches at the core of our network. The switches are configured as an HSRP pair and the clients on our network point to the HSRP address as their default gateway. So if CORE-A dies, then CORE-B will pick up the address and the default route for the clients will continue to be available.We also need to specify a few static routes on the core switch to allow us to get to specific networks. Is there a way to do this so that the routes failover in the same way that the default gateway does?

3945 is running c3900e-universalk9-mz.SPA.151-4.M2
3560e is running c3560e-universalk9-mz.150-1.SE
I've got brand new 3945's with onboard 16-port 3560e switches. On the first power up I see that there are several new vlans added that appear to be default vlans..
vlan 2 name fst2
vlan 3 name fst3
vlan 4 name fst4
vlan 5 name fst5
vlan 6 name fst6
vlan 20 name VLAN0020
vlan 21 name VLAN0021
vlan 22 name VLAN0022
vlan 23 name VLAN0023
vlan 99 name VLAN0099
I deleted the vlan.dat and reloaded the switch but these vlans come back. What these vlans are intended for and is there a better way to get rid of them? What does "fst" stand for?

I have a cisco 3560E switch setup with LACP, when using LACP i receive alot of packet loss / output drops
When a ping from the server behind LACP:
--- google.com ping statistics ---
44 packets transmitted, 39 received, 11% packet loss, time 42990ms
what would cause this packet loss with lacp?
some output from the switch:
Port-channel12 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Hardware is EtherChannel, address is d0d0.fd58.7390 (bia d0d0.fd58.7390)
Description: LACP-PORT

I implemented the 3560E switch, this one have two Giga bit ethernet/10-Gigabit Ethernet module slots. I used the Twin Gig Converter Modules and one SFP. All configuration was applied in the Ten Giga bit, however the interface giga bit ethernet is UP UP state and the Ten giga down down.

I'm trying to configure "IP PIM SPARSE-MODE" command on a vlan interface on a 3560E switch but it doesn't give me the option to do this. The only option available is ip pim passive. What would cause this ? On the same switch a physical interface is already configured with IP PIM SPARSE-MODE.

I recently upgraded a remote site of mine to IOS 15-2.SE ipbasek9 on 3 3560E series switches. On switch number 2 I have 5 VG224's running (vg224-i6k9s- m) 12.4(22)T3. After the switches reloaded the VG224's dropped their connection. After doing all basic troubleshooting I reloaded the 12.2 (58)SE2 ipbasek9 image back on to the 3560E's and the VG224's reconnected immediately after reload and all phones registered.
Is the problem a licensing issue with the 15.x IOS on the 3560's or do I need to upgrade the VG224's to IOS 15.x as well for them to connect and operate via the 3560e switch running 15-2?

I have 3560e which doesn't appear to be passing igmp traffic to the upstream router
PC1 ----------- ASA ------------ PC2--------- 3560e ----------- 3825 -------------------- WAN --------------------- Router ------------- Server
My ASA runs SMR, has an igmp forward interface outside command on the inside and has a trunk port to the 3560e (V lans 32 & 48).PC2 is a test pc on the 3560e on vlan32. 3825 is my ISPs router on vlan32.
- if i try to access the stream from PC2 it works.
- if i try to access the stream from PC1, i see the igmp join leave my ASA onto the 3560E (i've captured on the 3560e's link to the ASA).
I've also captured on the ASA and i can see the igmp packet leave the outside interface but the join doesn't reach the 3825 (i've captured on the 3560e port facing the router and there is no join being forwarded).the switch is running in layer 2, 12.2(35r)SE1.

We have a Site that is connected via Wireless Bridge to the Main Site, the site is on separate VLAN with Cisco 3560 switch. The main site has 6509 swith. Configuration as per attached diagram. We are connecting a fiber between the remote and the main site and adding a 3560E switch at the remote site, however we would like to keep the wireless connection as a backup in case the fiber is severed the wireless will be availble. Attached diagram shows detailed cofiguration. I would like to know what should I change to make this working. STP is enabled on all switches.

is it possible, to use a Catalyst Switch (in my case a 3560E) as a source for a console session to another Catalyst? In principle to use it as a console terminal server.

We are receiving a large amount of output drops on 4 interfaces that connect to microwave wireless.This is playing up with our Management system. Saw a bug report but that was for 3750, not the IOS version but was a similar issue. [code] The output errors tend to happen at the same time. All ports are trunks however there are other trunks on the switch that are not having these issues. [code]

I have a Cat6506. There were 2 Sup 720 in it for redundancy. They told me they had problems with this thing in the past needing to go out and reboot the machine. I need to go out periodically because it goes into ROMMON. I type boot and it comes back up. One time though neither one would reboot. I had to take a third one out there and reconfigure it. Now it is starting to do the same thing. One thing I did notice is they never connected it to an UPS. It is plugged strait into the wall with power going to two outlets. I am beginning to think there are spikes in the power occurring and this is sending it into ROMMON.

I'm currently pursuing to take my CCNA and am currently studying for it, but have recently encountered a problem with one of my 1760 routers that I can not solve.Yesterday I went to boot up my router like normal, however when I went into hyperterminal I noticed the router was in Rommon mode. Thinking I could change the configuration registry, I tried to bypass the NVRAM by using confreg 0x2142. However this still causes the router to go into Rommon mode. I am getting an error that states that there is insufficient memory to load the IOS image. [code]
I have used the dir flash: command and can see the IOS image, and try to boot from it (boot flash:iosimagename) but it will still go back into rommon mode. I also just swapped the RAM from my other 1760 into this 1760 and it booted up and went into normal configuraiton mode without any issues. However, the other router now will not load it's IOS image and I get the exact same error.I'm at a loss here, and have searched to figure out where or how I can just wipe the router clean to try and start fresh, but cannot get out or Rommon mode. The only thing I can think of is that the RAM went bad since it wont boot up either machine.

I have an issue with a customers 6503 with Sup-2T cards, where we are locked out of the console due to an authentication configuration error. So tried several times to get the card into rommon, with no success.
Checking through the various documents on CCO I dont find any reference to rommon on this card, but do find information on using the CMP to support the supervisor. I logged into the CMP but couldn't find a way from there to do a password reccovery either.So, is the `normal' IOS rommon/password recovery method supported.

I am facing a problem with a cisco 6509 that goes into rommon every time i restart. If i give the command
rommon 1> boot
it will pick up the IOS on the sup-bootdisk: or bootdisk: and boots up but i dont understand why on reboot it wont pick up this IOS and boot itself and why do i have to write boot command everytime on rommon.
I have also explicitly given the command "boot system bootdisk:IOSNAME.bin" in the startup config file but still no luck.

Yesterday I tried to install c2960-lanbasek9.mz.12.55.SE4.bin onto my router. When I changed the boot commands, I did not leave the 2nd option in there and the old firmware has an .ex3 extension. After trying to boot to this new image, we receive a looping error message that continues to reboot and go through the same process.Basically the error is "ERROR: firmware not supported by hardware"I have power cycled it a few times but durning bootup, I never see the ################## which would allow me to BREAK sequence and get into rommon. The device simply waits about 30-40 seconds after boot and goes right back to the looping reboot sequence and the error message. Is there any hyper term or putty settings to change on this?
