Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750 Turn Off 802.1x Console Messages
Dec 16, 2012
Is there a way to turn off 802.1x authentication messages to the console of a 3750 switch? The issue we have is that we like to monitor the terminal when remotely configuring our switches. However, every time a computer authenticates to the network we get messages and sometimes quite a few depending on the situation.
I am using radius authentication on C4507R+E with supervisor card 6L-E and IOS 15.0.2(SG1). It works perfectly but all radius messages appear in the console. Radius is very verbose, I can't use console because of the significant number of messages and I am worried about switches performances. I add that all debug commands are disabled.
We are facing issue with one of the module installed on cico 4506 swicth. All of a sudden cisco phones connected to that module went down and the messages logged on the console. [code]
I have 2 3750-x members in a stack running 12.2(58)SE2. I am able to console into the stack master, which happens to be the top switch, but not able to console into the 2nd member. I get the screen stating the console is available but never get the prompt to login. Is this expected behavior?On our stacks of 3750v2's, I'm able to console to any switch in the stack?
Is there a way to get more messages out of a 2950 set to syslog? I've turned every logging option I can find to DEBUG, but all I get in my syslog are LinkUp/Down messages and "Configured from console by console". I'd love to see more information such as configuration changes, or even someone attempting to set up DTP on a switchport set to access mode.
I have a new redundant network with two cores C1 and C2 and five access switches A1 to A5. They are all Cisco SG300 switches. I have noticed there are too many STP messages emanating from one host which has a MAC address which cannot be traced on the network. In the redundant network, I made C1 the root bridge by giving it a priority of 4096 and C2 has been given a priority of 8192 so that it is the secondary root bridge in the network. I have left all other STP settings to default on the rest of the switches in the network.
The problem is that one host is advertising a RST root bridge all the time. Now it has a mac address which is different from the mac address of the root bridge itself and i cannot trace this mac address on the network. Look at the snapshot of Wireshark output in the attach.The source MAC address which is the host advertising all the time is 1c:df:0f:34:db and the root bridge is 1c:df:0f:bb:34:c4.
Why would the root bridge be resetted all the time?I've also noticed that one port in a LAG configuration on one of the access switches is flapping up and down all the time.I tried to troubleshoot this problem. It is not the cable. It would be something else. What could cause this flapping of the port?Could it be related to STP?
On the other Core switch C2 I can see a LAG status switching between forwarding and blocking all the time. What could make the LAG status to flap from forwarding to blocking and back all the time like this?
I had these error messages on both my Cisco 2851 and on my Cisco Catalyst 6506.
On Cisco 2851: %SYS-SP-3-CPUHOG: Task is running for (2000)msecs, more than (2000)msecs (4/4),process = SEA write CF process. [code]...
And on 6506: Dec 27 15:20:55 MET: %SYS-SP-3-CPUHOG: Task is running for (2000)msecs, more than (2000)msecs (129/129),process = SEA write CF process.[ code]...
I have these IOS versions on my Cisco: Cisco 2851: 15.0(1)M4 Cisco 6506: 12.2(33)SXI
While working at a client site today, I was troubleshooting some ICMP connectivity for a network we have created.I turned on 'debug ip icmp" on the 3550 switch int he middle, and was inundated with the following debug output:
Jan 25 11:01:14.641: ICMP: dst (172.16.1.7) port unreachable rcv from 172.16.1.5 Jan 25 11:01:14.641: ICMP: dst (172.16.1.7) port unreachable rcv from 172.16.1.5 Jan 25 11:01:14.641: ICMP: dst (172.16.1.7) port unreachable rcv from 172.16.1.5 Jan 25 11:01:14.641: ICMP: dst (172.16.1.7) port unreachable rcv from 172.16.1.5
[code]....
This output fires several times a second, and based on how often it is firing, I am curious if it may be a culprit with respect to the fact that the client has indicated that they have some slow internet.Should the next step be to look at the workstation at 172.16.1.5?
Is there any way to change the port that is used for syslog messages on a Cisco 9500 switch?By default this is set to UDP port 514.There doesn't seem to be a command to change the port.
We use C2950G switches with IOS 12.1(22)EA12 . Switches are set up to send logs to a server (informationnal level). On this server, we receive many of logs from those switches, but none about interfaces errors (even if interfaces statistics show interfaces errors). On C3548 switches it's work fine.How should I be sure the set up of switches is correct ? Why do I never receive messages as %LINK-4-ERROR:[char] is experiencing errors ?

Setting up NTP. Currently the source for NTP within our network is our core 6500.Currently the NTP source for the 6500 are internet based NTP Servers. I would like to configure the 6500 to respond to NTP messages as the NTP Master. However will the 6500's source remain as the internet based NTP Servers?? In other words if the 6500is configured to be NTP Master, where would it get it's time from?
I have a situation in which I want to log a specific message (informational - 6 level), but don't want to enable informational logging and get all the messages that come with it. Is there a feature in IOS, 3560 12.2(25r)SEE4, similar to the 'logging lists' feature on the ASA that allows you to specify logs that you want to capture without having to change your logging level? I didn't want to have to write an EEM applet for this, but if that's the only way, I'd consider it.
I am getting the below messages on my Cisco 6500 series switches every 1min. The IOS version is 12.2(33)SXI6 & with SUP32-GE-3B
%ILPOWER-7-DETECT: Interface Fa1/1: Power Device detected: Cisco PD %ILPOWER-7-DETECT: Interface Fa1/1: Power Device detected: Cisco PD %ILPOWER-7-DETECT: Interface Fa1/1: Power Device detected: Cisco PD
These messages are I am recieving on few ports only not on all port having IP Phone connected. I tried changing the phone to some other model but that also did not resolved my problem. Also I tried powering on the phone using power adapter but the issue still persist.
Client are not facing any issues due to this error, but still I would like know what can be the issue which is generating these logs.
We have recently upgraded oor LAN and we are using couple of Nexus5548UP switches in the core with 2960 stacks as access switches. Each access switches stack is connnected to both core switches with link being port-chanels and VPCs. All is working fine, but our SolarWinds management platform (NPM) is being flooded with "Physical Address changed" events. Here is an example of messages:
NSW_Core_2 - Ethernet1/7 Physical Address changed from 000000003811 to 73616D653811 NSW_Core_2 - Ethernet1/7 Physical Address changed from 200B82B43811 to 000000003811
For each interface I have messages like these repeating.I am not sure what those messages means or if there is actually anything wrong. Performance of the network is good, there are no errors on any interfaces and I do not see anything related in the switch loggs.
We had a core switch(4503) in our environment and recently we tried to enable syslog in the switch. But the syslog server doesnt receives all the configured level messages from the switch. Following is the only message getting in syslog server after the configuration change in switch.
%SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by CWLMS onvty1
(No Traffic related messages like acl deny traffic, spanning tree events etc are getting to syslog server as well as log buffer of the switch)
Following are the logging configuration for the core switch
I have a 6513 with redundant sup 720-3B's that I cannot get onto. In short, one of the power supplies failed, it still passes traffic but I can't console or ssh to the box. Other than the two sup 720's, I have a 4 port 10gig card, a 16 port GBIC Card and an IDS module. I have tried removing the 10Gig, IDS and one of the sup's but still don't get anything on the console. I have rebooted the entire chassis and don't get anything on my console while booting. I have tried changing the speed of my terminal to every setting available incase someone has changed it at some stage but to no avail. I have tried swapping sup's, using only one at a time in the chassis but not getting anything. Is there anything else I can try to get onto this chassis? The power supply is a 3000w with a 32amp input. The failed power supply had tripped a switch, when i brought it back up, the power supply came out but the output failed LED is on. My #questions are, is there anything else I can do to try get onto the console, and is the power supply goosed when the RED LED is lit? I have reseated the power supply also but the same result.
I purchased an old cisco 831 for practical studies for a cisco certification. I purchased the console cable (serial/rj45) and a usb->serial converter cable. However when I open my terminal application (tera term) After I select the right com port (3) and make sure the connection settings are right. It will just sit idle and not show any data from the device. Was I sold a faulty device? It lights up and has three lights on.
Everytime I look at a manual or cisco video I am given the impression the terminal application will just automatically connect. But whenever I try I get nothing.
I have installed a cisco 2911 router and the cisco usb console drivers on my pc, win 7 64 bit.however when I use putty and open the com port assigned it just goes blank, I am using the usb port on my laptop to connect and using the cisco usb console cable provided
I have a 3560-24ps, and I'm having issues with it booting. When I power the device up all the front panel lights come on like normail, and then the system light starts flashing like normal, but after 5 - 6 seconds the system light goes off. I don't get any output from the console, and the fans still run.
I am using Solawinds syslog and trying to get our Cisco routers send syslogs to our syslog server. I followed the procedure on Configuring Cisco Devices to Use a Syslog Server from [URL] Our Cisco swtches are all sending syslog messages but not the routers. I compared the config with our access switches but can't seem to find the problem:
I have two 3560s that i would like to upgrade. But first i would like to make -absolutely- sure i dont wind up in a situation where i have to roll back over a console connection.to the day i still cant understand why oh why someone removed (or chose not to implement it everywhere) tftpdnld from rommon ;)
I attached the terminal to the console port to watch the bootup sequense, but nothing appear the same cable used on athor switches and router without any issue.procedure to access the router noting that Giga ports not working also.
I have a client whom has asked me to enable web management on some of his 2960 switches. I did not think this was going to be an issue, and so I told the customer I would set this up for him.
Much to my dismay, I have been able to get http and https enabled, and then authenticating locally for the HTTP access. I then come to the screen once authenticated which is shown below:
The issue is that when I select "Web Console", it gives me a "Web Page Cannot be found".
I can't connect to the console of switch cisco sge2010, I tried several console cables and none worked for me, I followed step by step manuals and nothing.
Also try the web 192.168.1.254 according to the manual but when I connect from the laptop to do ping to the switch doesnt work.
We are having a problem with our ACS and switch configuration.Basically if the switches lose connectivity to the ACS server the switches completely lock up, you can’t even console onto the switches.We want them to use the fall back username and password when this happens.
today I received a Cisco 1841 Router with a problem i have never seen before. Maybe this my 1st really,really broken Cisco Router. When I power the Router on, the fan and all lights turn on (green) and that's it. Nothing changes, also after minutes of wating. On console i don't get any messages and I already tried every BAUD rate possible. Switched the router off/on again and again. And no, it's obviously not a console problem of my computer, because i tried with different routers.
