Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3560x Stacking And Multicast Traffic
Dec 20, 2012
I am trying to resolve a situation where we need to send multiple (2 atleast) multicast feeds from a source to our multilayer switch (3560x).
The problem with the source is that it can only send a feed to a single switch at a given time. It can not send 2 (identical) feeds to two 3560x devices (on 2 different subnets/vlans). I was wondering if i could make the two 3560x devices appear as 1 device (using virtual chassis system or a similar feature). I am running ip services IOS feature set (c3560e-universalk9-mz.122-58.SE2.bin).

I have a 3560X switch with interfaces 36-48 on the same LAN. All interfaces are switchports. Hosts on 38, 39 and 40 are multicast senders: all sending to the same single multicast address. Hosts on 36 and 37 are receivers, having joined that multicast group. I created an SVI for the LAN and put it in ip pim passive. (That is the only PIM mode allowed for an SVI with my IOS.) Show ip igmp snooping groups shows that 36 and 37 are the only interfaces in this group. I attach a laptop to interface 42 and Wireshark, and the laptop is receiving the multicast traffic. The laptop does not join the group. I expect it would not see the traffic.

Im going to be ordering a new 3560X L3 switch (ws-3560x-48pf-s). We currently have a 3560 V2 switch and I've read it supports stacking, but looking at the back I just see a console port. Is there an extra card I have to get for this 3560V2 to make it stakable with the 3560X?

does 6500 with SUP-720 support nat on multicast traffic?
i know it support Multicast service reflection based on SXI4 which can facilitate me on destination address nat.
but if i need only source nat, does the defualt NAT feature supported on multicast traffic ?

Attached setup i am planning for testing multicast output from different vendors using VLC and STB. This Setup made to test the picture quality between the vendors at the same time on the multi viewer screen.
1) Only a 2960 Gig port switch with only one L2 v lan with IGMP snooping enabled.
In this scenario where Source and receivers are in the same L2 v lan ( no L3 interface is involved) hope i would able to test all the multicast sources with out any additional configuration on the Cisco switch.

I have configured multicast(ip pim dense-mode) on two 2911 that are connected by a Multilink( 3 Mbps) Wan connection.The configuration works fine for awhile and sometimes all day but at some point one of the Multilink interfaces stops passing multicast traffic.I perform a SH Multilink 1 on the interfaces and one show multicast packets incrementing and one does not, it just stops.The problem acts like there is a buffer that gets full and after that happens it just stops working.

I am having trouble getting some multicast traffic across a link. I have a 3750G setup, with IP routing and IP multicast routing, between two laptops. This will eventually sit between two networks that cannot be physically connected to each other for security reasons. I have static joins on the ports but cannot see the multicast traffic on the receiver. I am attaching the latest config. The sender(10.10.4.2) sits on gi1/0/24 and the receiver(10.10.3.2) sits on gi1/0/1. I am using VLC to test this and it will connect if I point the receiver to the address of the sender, but will not receive any multicast. The multicast traffic is not making it to the 10.10.3 side, I used wire shark to verify that it was not making it across.

Multicasting. The configuration is I have a 6506 as my core switch receiving multicasts from an interface assigned to VLAN10. I have a monitor port setup with a PC running Observer which says multicasts are being received on the core switch. On a different interface on the core switch I have a 2960G switch connected to it and this interface is on VLAN 10. The 2960G switch has a workstation connected to it that needs to receive the multicasts. How do I configure the 6506 and/or the 2960G to process the multicast traffic?

I have two Catalyst 6506 in VSS mode with VS-S720-10G running 12.2(33)SXI1 IP SERVICES.I have two firewalls that communicate on to the other through a dedicated VLAN created on Catalyst 6506.
One firewall is able to ping the other one on this dedicated VLAN but if I send multicast traffic from firewall-1 I didn't receive it on firewall-2.I found a bug related to multicast issues on Cisco WS-C6509-E with VS-S720-10G. The bug ID is CSCtc59038.

How to stack a set of these switches with the copper 5G SFP on these switches. We currently have 4 switches stacked with Cat5e jumpers between S1&S2. We want to stop using this stacking method and go to the SFP. What is the best way to do this. Live would be preferable but whatever is the safest method is the way we will proceeed. Any goth'ca's in this process?

There seems to be a lot of conflicting information on what can and can't stack together in the 3750X range.
I know that LAN Base can only stack with other LAN Base switches.
Can IP Base stack with IP services in 3750X? I have also heard that the 15.x.x IOS restricts mixed feature set stacks?
I know that Cisco recommends that all switches in a stack have the same IOS and feature set but having all IP Services in a stack can get too expensive.

have 2 3750's one is an 3750E the other one is a G... Since they are 2 different versions Do I need to correct ios for each for example my 3750E switch i would have
IP BASE
c3750e-ipbasek9-mz.122-53.SE2.bin and for my 3750G switch should i use
IP BASE
c3750-ipbasek9-mz.122-53.SE2.bin
Which would be 2 separate images

I have one 3750X with C3KX-NM-10GT, I need to interconnect using stackwise to 3750G-24TS. The 3750X needs IOS 15.0(1) to use C3KX-NM-10GT, and the latest IOS for 3750G-24TS is 12.2.55. How can I interconnect them using diferent IOS?

We currently have a stack of 3750G switches that are running 12.2(46)SE C3750-ADVIPSERVICESK9-M
Our 3750X is currently running 15.0(2)SE C3750E-UNIVERSALK9-M and I believe we were told you can't stack with a Universal IOS image. We have the universal on there because we have some 10GB fiber connections on it that Cisco told us wouldn't work otherwise.
I realize that the switch versions need to match, but the question is, which version should we work off to have use of the 10GB SFP card?

I am having troubles to get 2 C3750-X switches WS-C3750-X-48P-L) to stack. They are both running iOS 15.0(2)-UNIVERSALK9, and are licensed for IP Base.
If I connect stack port 1 of switch 1 to stack port 2 of switch 1, and stack port 1 of switch 2to stack port 2 of switch 2 I get the following:
WS-C3750-X_STACK1_SW1>show switch stack-ports summary
Switch#/ Stack Neighbor Cable Link Link Sync # InPort# Port Length OK Active OK Changes Loopback Status
[Code].....
I have tried restarting (powering off for about 1 min and turning back on) simultaneously, and powering off switch 1 for 1 min and switch 2 for 2 min. I have also tried both enabling the stack ports, and disabling followed by enabling.

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):
2960s3560x3750x45064510Approx cost (Each, 48PORT, POE+, 10G uplink, Dual PS, IP BASE)

For the MDF I would like to use 2 Nexus 5548's with FEX's, and the layer 3 daughter board. For the IDF's I was thinking of two 4010's.

We have two 3750 stackable switches in core layer.
1. We are planning to stack two 3750 for greater bandwidth to use
2. We could configure 10GE link (by Network module) between these two switches
which solution provides increased bandwidth and redundancy?

I have 2 Catalyst 2960S (24 ports and 48 ports). Can I stack them using the Uplink connection instead of the stack modules. I know Stack module is the best option but it is kind of expensives (half price of the 24 ports switch) and I only need to stack no more then 2 switches.

I followed the 3-switch Redundant stacking diagram and now when I boot up the stack Switch 2 is acutally Member 3 and Switch 3 is Member 2.
We plan on having Port-Channels spanning across Switch 1 - Master and Switch 2 (Member 3) of identical port types. Switch 3 (Member 2) is going to have 2 10GIG port channel created.
Is there going to be a problem renumbering the stack as they physically sit or should I just configure the devices based on thier logical member numbers.
I don't understand why the stack connection is Switch 1 - 1 ----> Switch 2 -1
Switch 2 - 2 ----> Switch 3- 1
Switch 3 - 2 ----> Switch 1 - 2

I would like to ask about 3750 stacking and some Cat6 stuff...
1) How do we monitor 3750 stacking port in LMS?
2) Let say if I stack 3 switches, middle switch should be Master. Uplink should be at Top and Bottom. Is best practice?
3) Can we mixed 3750G and 3750X and what is result internal BW - fallback to 32Gps?
4) is there any Qos difference between WS-X6816-10G-2T and WS-X6816-10G-2TXL?
5) is there any Qos difference between MSFC5 PFC4 and MSFC5 PFC4XL?
6) What is main difference between PFC4 and PFC4XL in Sup2T?
7) Pls share more about Central and Distributed Switching in Sup2T and which card support Distributed DFCXL?

I'm having trouble stacking a new WS-C3750X-24P with existing switches WS-C3750G-24PS ?I can see the license is on the new WS-C3750X-24P:
switch#sho lic
Index 1 Feature: ipservices
Period left: 8 weeks 4 days
License Type: Evaluation
License State: Active, Not in Use, EULA not accepted
License Priority: None
[code].....
I could put on the c3750e-ipbasek9-mz.122-55.SE1 image, but I may need to get the license sorted still, but not sure if that will work or how to add it if i got one.....

i cant find any difference in these two devices when i am trying to compare throughput.I need upgrade our new POP and there will be around 4900 MAC adresses in VLAN 150 and 130 MAC adresses in vlan 200.Uplink is 1 gig routed internet connection and there is 14 downlinks to separate villages.i found a few differences for eg stack interface on 3750x but i dont need it.

I unpacked a new 3560x and went to put our standard code version on it c3560e-ipbasek9-mz.122-53.SE2. Everything seemed to upgraded fine but it won't boot to a console prompt. It seems like it loads the IOS image fine but can't get passed the Front-end Microcode IMG MGR: Programming device 0. [code]

I'm trying to get some clarity on power stacking 3750X switches. I have a new stack of 6 switches. I know I can only have 4 in a power stack and all 6 in the data stack with a max of 8. I'm trying to find the proper way to connect the power stack cables for the 4 switch power stack.

I plan to build improved redundancy in to my LAN by stacking two 3750s and teaming pairs of NICs on my Dell PowerEdge servers, with each cable of the pair going to a different switch.In my mind this provides redundancy for the NICs and the switches. Does this configuration will work, and also what type of teaming is supported, as I was planning to have one NIC active and one standby, but can I run this configuration with both NICs in the team as active with load balancing?

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).

We purchased a number of 3750X 48 and 24 port switches for the College Campus. Am finally getting around to getting them inserted on the network. Working with a WS-3750X-48PF-S and a WS-3750X-24P-L. Have them stacked with the 10Gb uplink on the 48 port switch. Have not been having fun.In the boot sequence, the switches recognize they are stacked, but as soon as they finish boot, I get the message on the 48 port switch: “Stack Port 1 Switch 1 has changed to state down.” Then “Stack Port 2 Switch1 has changed to state down.” Am noticing that I have a message preceding that: “Major version mismatch with stack neighbor.”The 48 port is running c3750e-universalk9-mz.150-1.SE3, HBOOT 12.2(53r)SE2.The 24 port is running c3750e-unversalk9-mz.122-55.SE3, HBOOT 12.2(53r)SE2Most of our 3750X and older switches are running 122-55 or 122.58 code. IP base or Universal. There is speculation that the problem is the 24 Port is Lan base, as the part number might indicate. (WS-C3750X-24-P-L.... I think that is the part number) and the 48 is IP base. Both switches are Universal, and my understanding is that they don't care about LAN or IP Base until you enable a function that falls in the IP Base domain. Then I have to call Cisco Licensing.For these switches, LAN Base is fine, based on the boot message, I feel the real problem is 122-55 versus 150-1 in the stack. So.. the question is: Do I downgrade the 48 port to match what we have in our environment, and what is on the 24 port switch. Or... Upgrade the 24 port switch to match the 48 port switch and have an installation that is not consistent with our environment? I do have two more edge closets to install with this purchase of 3750X 48 port switches.
