Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750 / 2950 - Which Series Switch Supports Vlan Up To 4000
Nov 4, 2012
we are using 3750 and 2950 switches both of them do not support vlan up to 4000 .we need vlan about 3000 .Whic cisco series switch do support vlan up to 4000.
2950
S-SW1.3(config-vlan)#exi
Proposed configuration has too many VLANs for this platform. Reduce the number of VLANs proposed.
S-SW1.3(config)#end
3750
SW1(config-vlan)#exi
proposed configuration exceeds the limit of 1005 VLANs that can be supported on this platform. Reduce the number of VLANs proposed to be within this limit.
In my lab, there are some machines that are connected using Cisco 2950 switches. Those machines belong to a VLAN.Now I need to modify the VLAN settings of the machines and as such I also need to modify the VLAN settings on the ports on the Cisco switches.
In order to do this, first I need to login to those switches, but due to a lack of knowledge transfer, I don't have the password. Is the some generic password?Second I will need to modify the VLAN settings on each individual port. How can I do this?
I have two networks at two sites with a dot1q trunk between the two L3 switches at both sites (no routers involved)
SITE A - Cisco 3750 L3 - VLAN ID 50 10.10.50.0/24
SITE B - Cisco 3750 L3 - VLAN ID 50 10.20.50.0/24
I would like to extend the SITE A VLAN to SITE B so that I can move hosts from SITE A to SITE B without needing to change their IP address but the vlan ID is already in use. Obviously the easy solution is to change the VLAN ID for one or other of the sites but both sites contain hosts that run 24/7. Is there a way to join two VLANs with different IDs together.So for example I create a new VLAN 60 at SITE B and associate it with VLAN 50 at SITE A.
I want to limit the bandwidth of my Catalyst 3750 series switch, I read the cisco documentation and I applied the commands but I didn't get the wanted results.
For the outbound traffic it's ok, but for the inbound traffic I used policing but I get an unstable traffic. I used, an access list and a class-map to classify the traffic and then a policy-map.(I followed the steps mentioned in this site: [URL]
I have a new Cisco 2960 S series switch with a basic configuration that needs to be uplinked or daisy chained to a Cisco 3750 switch. I am not getting any connectivity to the network with either a straight through or crossover cable. the port remains in amber but a 'show interface' indicates that the interface is up. I can manage the switch with a PC patched into any port on the switch with a static IP address. Must be something very simple that I am missing. Outlined below is the configuration.
I have been looking into this for a while and I can't seem to figure out why my 2nd vlan is not able to connect properly to the net.
My switch has 12 ports where my devices connects directly, they are all on Vlan 1 and they all work perfectly. on Port 12 I have a dlink router that is connected to a cable modem. the dlink router has an Ip address of 192.168.0.20
I created a second vlan (vlan2) and enabled dhcp relay on it. then I assigned port 9 on the switch to (vlan2)my laptop which is connected to port 9 seems to get an ip address fine and able to ping only some devices on my network (vlan1) and is not able to go out to the internet. I think it has to do with the routes. [code]
I'm having some trouble getting my head round the following but I think it's routing related?
I have a Cisco 3750 switch with the following configured:
interface Vlan1 ip address 192.168.0.223 255.255.254.0 no ip route-cache
[Code].....
The 3750 is connected to a firewall which handles the routing. From the 3750 I can only ping remote networks from the vlan1 interface not from vlan6,8 or 10 i.e ping 10.34.37.101 (remote network) source 192.168.0.223 (vlan1) works but ping 10.34.37.101 source 10.74.10.1 (vlan10) does not? I can ping 10.34.37.101 from computers on the various vlans but not from the 3750 it self.
I looked at setting a default gateway for the various vlan interfaces
I have a 2911 router connected to a 3750 switch. I have configured vlan interfaces on the 2911 router:I am using the vlan 89 (89.2) as the management ip address for me to remotely get to the switch. Is this a proper configuration or could this cause issues in the future.
This is regarding VLAN creation on C3750E switch.I want to create new Vlan 94 on this switch and also I want to allowed same interfaces like Vlan 95 & Vlan 96. [code]
Stumped again with my Catalyst 2950. Everything is working perfectly with wan/dhcp/router on fa 0/1 with all ports assigned to vlan1. All devices plugged in connect to the router correctly with ip's being assigned via dhcp.Instead of hooking up by console port I want to be able to SSH or telnet in to the switch using any port while still maintaining the above functionallity. Is it possible to assign a dhcp assigned ip address to vlan 2 and have vlan1 and 2 bridged? Or is there a better way of doing this ?
spam up the boards with the same basic CCNA level stuff, but I have a couple of questions about ios differences, limitations, and references. I have the following three switches. One appears to be considerably dated in regard to software version. My confusion/ignorance stems from managing VTP settings.
When I set either 2950 switch as the VTP server, and the other as a client, the client inherits the server settings as expected. However the 2924 requires that I go into the vlan database from priv exec and manually set vtp client. That's pretty similar to setting any switch to client mode. The problem I am observing is that after setting the 2924 to client, it still doesn't inherit vtp version settings or pruning settings. I still have to manually configure those. Additionally, if I copy run start the 2924 after making these manual settings, and then reload the switch, all the settings are lost and it defaults back to server mode with all features disabled. From my searches, it looks like vlan information is stored in vlan.dat, but all the documentation I've found is on 12.1 ios which doesn't appear to use vlan database for vtp setup, meaning it might still be an issue, but not one I'm focused on at the moment.
Is the vlan database dumped at reload? I've read vlan.dat is stored in nvram and should be saved after a copy run start, but that is not the case for me.I have since set the 2924 as the server, manually configured the server from vlan database, executed copy run start, and reloaded the switch. Oddly, my manual settings saved from the reload, meaning I only lose settings when the switch is in client mode.Am I missing additional necessary client commands to save the config, or is this just a limitation of either the 2924XL or the 12.0 ios?On a related but completed out of scope topic, without a cisco service contract, how am I supposed to make heads or tails of all the different versions of ios, along with the letter-based features and what-not? I can't even find my 2924 in the list of platforms when searching for ios upgrades.
We have a group of computers on their own VLAN. A router allows internet access while keeping them sandboxed. We don't want them accidentally connect to our production network. We blocked their wireless MACs in unauthorized WAPs. I'd like to do the same thing for their ethernet MACs on our switches, (a mixture of 2950,2960 and 2960G currently testing on C2960-LANBASE-M, Version 12.2(25)SEE2). I've been unable to locate the correct method on google, by searching these boards or in the command reference.
What is the best practice for blocking a group of MACs from accessing a particular VLAN on a network consisting of several Layer 2 Switches?
i am facing a strange issue on cisco 2950 .IOS (tm) C2950 Software (C2950-I6K2L2Q4-M), Version 12.1(22)EA9, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) suddenly my phone stopped working for DTMF tone, i mean when i dial a conference bridge lets say 6565 and then it ask for conference bridge code lets say 12345, it doesnt recognize the code and says code is invalid, SIP Proxy is Asterisk in this case.Currently my cisco switch port is configured for dual data + voice vlan, where DTMF dont work, sample config below [code]
Randomly when I try to access to 2950 from management tools, switch is unreachable, I have to access from other switch and reload 2950.
Problem only is from managemt tool to managament vlan 1 2950.
The strange thing is that management interface is encountering a very fast increase of throttles, broadcast and ignored packets:
2950#show interfaces vlan 1 Vlan1 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is CPU Interface, address is 0023.3488.fd65 (bia 0023.3488.fd65) Internet address is xxxxxxxxxx MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255
[code]....
It could be a hardware problem?, IOS has been upgraded.
I have a RSPAN session configured between a Cisco 3750 and Cisco 2950 switches and I dont see the traffic I am expecting to see on the destination port. I only see broadcast traffic .. HRSP hellos etc. Below is what I have configured on both switches.
We have a low bandwith (15-20 Mbit/s) to the ASA from our Client vlan. If i connect the Client to the same vlan as the ASA is, the bandwith (90 Mbit/s) is good.
And we have following error message in the log from the switch:
%PLATFORM_UCAST-4-PREFIX:
One or more specific prefixes could not be programmed into TCAM and are being covered by a less specific prefix, and the packets may be software forwarded I first get the idea that the switch is overloaded with router traffic. Thats why i assuming i have to check the sdm templates, but i'm not sure if this resolves the issue.
I am looking into the possibility of using private vlan's for some dmz implementations however I do have what may be some very rudimentary questions. It seems straightforward how to configure the primary/secondary vlan configuration as well as associating them. However in my case I would be looking to configure the PVLAN on a 6500-vss platform acting as the router while all of the hosts which I would desire to have in the isolated vlan would be spread out across a number of older Cisco switches which only support "protected port" setup or Procurve switches all of which I do not have budget to replace with something newer. So in my scenario I would have a 6500 connected by trunk to multiple switches which only support a protected port setup such as a Procurve (top of rack) or a Cisco 2950. As the Procurve or 2950 would not support Private VLAN setup, do I then just configure the secondary vlan to be allowed across the trunk from the 6500, configure that vlan on the Procurve or 2950 (as vtp will not foward the info for the secondary vlan) and assign that vlan to the host port as well as setting it as a protected port and this will communicate just fine across the trunk to the router as well as stopping the protected port in top of rack switch 1 from being able to communicate to a protected port in top of rack 2,3,etc? If the above scenario is what needs to be done, do I just use a regular trunk or do I have to use a PVLAN trunk?
Any switch that supports 4096 multicast groups?I am working on a system that includes over a dozen catalyst 2960 switches. The customer has pointed out the 2960 switch does not satisfy the requirement to support 4096 multicast groups (even though it is more than adequate for the number of active multicast groups). It looks like the 3560 supports more multicast groups than the 2960, but is still far less than the requirement.
One of my wi-fi site having 2nos cisco 2950 switchs. in that network some D-link unmanageble swithes also there and access points also connected to cisco switchs and D-link switchs.after one or two days i am not able to connect the wi-fi, then i need to restart the access point then only wi-fi is working fine.I upgraded the latest ios also.I connected some access points to the cisco switch ports, those ports are showing crc error messages like below.

I'm trying to access the CMS administration page from my browser. I've already tried 192.168.0.1 and that brings up my gateway (cable modem from Time Warner).
I upgraded a Catalyst 2950 switch and there wasn't enough room so I deleted the flash. The upgraded went well using tftp. It booted up fine. The I0S version includes crypto. But, I can't access switch via web browser or CNA. Port scan shows port 80 0pen. What am I missing?
Here is the flash. Directory of flash:/ 2 -rwx 112 Mar 01 1993 01:00:48 +00:00 info 3 -rwx 3722814 Mar 01 1993 01:02:58 +00:00 c2950-i6k2l2q4-mz.121-22.EA14.bin 4 drwx 4416 Mar 01 1993 01:03:45 +00:00 html 331 -rwx 112 Mar 01 1993 01:04:19 +00:00 info.ver 332 -rwx [code]....
For intervlan routing, Is 'IP routing' command enabled by default on a 6500 series switches based on the IOS?and on 3750 switches, do we need to enable the "ip routing" command manually for intervlan routing?
