Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750G Stuck In Bootloader
Jan 23, 2013
I have just received a new Cisco 3750G Switch from my parent company. When attempting to install the switch, I discovered that it will not boot to CLI, only to the bootloader. After using the command boot, the switch attempts to boot the most current IOS version, but fails, stating "error loading XXXXXXXXXX.bin".
Obviously, I just need to get a functional version of the IOS onto the switch to boot, but the problem is exactly how can I do that? All (or most) the commands with which I am familiar are unavailable in the bootloader, so all methods known to me fail. Is there a simple way (maybe using the copy command?) to put the .tar or .bin file onto the flash?
Has any come across show ver memory details on 3750G-48PS as below, One of our Catalyst 3750G running software 12.2(44)SE2 shows unexpected DRAM as below:
cisco WS-C3750G-48PS (PowerPC405) processor (revision F0) with 0K/12280K bytes of memory. This would equate to around 11MB memory which does not seem right... Is it a known IOS bug?
I got Two Distribution Switches of Cisco 3750G. Each Distribution have two 3750G switches stacked. I also have one Cisco 3750V2 Access Switch connected to both Distribution. When I am checking for redundancy, I can only get redundancy test pass for one link not atall for other. If I have a link up with Distribution 1 only then its fine; but disappointment with Distribution 2 link. I can see that the switch priorities of Dist 2 is not correct ie. Master's priority is 10 and Member's is 15.
My question is that due to misconfigured priorities on Distribution 2 stack switches I am failing with redundancy if ONLY Dist 2 is up and Dist 1 is down.
I've one Cisco 3750G-12S with ip routing enable, the swtich is with IP Service firmware, with PRR support.Currently set my default static route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.18.71 to my Firewall A Currently all of the VLAN for will be routed to 10.1.18.71
I've created a new VLAN 2 for my 10.1.2.0/24 network with the VLAN interface 2 ip address 10.1.2.10, my intention is to route 10.1.2.0/24 traffic to my 10.1.2.1 by creating the access list and route-map.
I've configure my test pc with a static ip and my gateway pointing to 10.1.2.10 (VLAN 2 gateway) , i'm not able to route to 10.1.2.1.
I have a couple of 3750G-24T-E switches running IOS 12.2 I would like to upgrade to IOS 15.x. Is this possible? Where do I find some information on the required licenses and costs? I must admit that the cisco search function did come up with a few pages but i was not able to extract the required information. I have not used the new software activation features yet.
I've got a requirement to do Inter-VRF routing (need MP-BGP) using a private AS Number on a stack of 7 x 3750G's, my question ultimately is the performance overhead of doing such a change.
The stack will have no more than 300-400 routes even with the duplicates invoked from doing VRF leaking so I can't see much of an issue myself, we already have 2 VRF's and OSPF running in each VRF just don't have MP-BGP to do the VRF leaking.
Ultimately there will be about 4-5 VRF's (I know there's a Software limit of 26 VRF's on a 3750G).
I am having a switch 3750G (WS-C3750G-24TS-S) running a software version (c3750-ipservicesk9-mz.122-55.SE6.bin) and using the PBR with IP SLA.While, i am applying it on interface, it says not supported....
route-map TO-CAS-E0 permit 10 match ip address 125 set ip next-hop verify-availability 10.116.199.200 10 track 100 (if i change this command to set ip next-hop 10.116.199.200, it works) ! WAN-L3-3750SW01(config-route-map)#interface GigabitEthernet1/0/11
I have one switch 3750G12S I joined the company new, I found that they want to replace it with Alcatel stack switches. I didnt configure this Cisco switch before. how to configure it. I have 4 other new cisco switches in the topology which is not created yet. the 4 switches are all 2960.
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
I have a 3750g on which I am trying to configure the ip policy route-map command on each of the vlan interfaces. However after entering the command it does not appear. I'm not sure what to do at this point. I have changed the SDM template to routing and I am running the IPServices image.
I am trying to create an ACL that walls off a VLAN and only allows it to the internet. This is on a 3750G, currently the 3750G I am attempting this on is in a stack. I have another 3750G that is a standalone.
The first way I attempted this was to create two access-lists: access-list 101 permit tcp 10.249.1.0 0.0.0.255 any eq 80 access-list 102 permit tcp any 10.249.1.0 0.0.0.255 established
Let's call the 10.249.1.0 VLAN 2. I applied this to the VLAN2 interface, 101 out, 102 in. It didn't work. If I place a deny statement with nothing else, that works.
The second attempt was this: access-list 101 deny ip 10.249.1.0 0.0.0.255 any access-list 101 permit ip any any
I applied this to a VLAN I wanted to block VLAN2's traffic from reaching, let's call that one VLAN 3.
This lets all traffic from any VLAN (including the one I'm trying to block). If I remove the "permit ip any any", then all VLANs are denied. Which I understand is correct due to the implied deny all. What I don't understand is why it isn't applying the ACL to the specific VLAN.
I have a 3750G that used to be a Stack Master of a stack comprised of 2 identical switches. Since then, we have removed the stack from production, and I factory defaulted the stack MEMBER and that went fine. I just held the "Mode" button on the front until the lights all lit up and then issued the reload command and the switch came back with no configuration OTHER than the vlan database I issued the "del vlan.dat" command to no avail. I just manually removed all the vlans.
The stack MASTER on the other hand will NOT go back to factory defaults, and will also NOT erase the vlan database. Everything I try will NOT work. I've tried the following
1) Hold mode button & issue a reload after the lights start flashing
2) issue "Write Erase" then issue "reload"
3) issue "Write Erase", then issue "Write", then issue "reload"
4) issue "erase start" then issue "reload" (just in case the "write erase" command is being depriciated or something weird)
5) issue "erase start" then issue "copy run start" then issue "reload"
Is there a special way to reset a StackMaster back to factory defaults?
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?
I have a 3750G switch that can't detect another switch or be detected through its stack ports. I tried the recommended test; looping a cable between the ports and rebooting. I get the following message as the switch boots: SM: Detected stack cables at PORT1 PORT2. However, if I connnect another switch, it won't detect it and can't form a stack.
I'm trying to upgrade the IOS ver on a 3750G stack (2 switches), but the img on the switch is too old.The stack is running IOS c3750-i9-mz.121-19.EA1d.bin, and when I tried to upgrade to a newer version, I tried to go to IOS ver c3750-advipservicesk9-mz.122-35.SE5.bin since I need to enable ssh on the switch, but the switch did not reload.
Here's a prtscreen of the switch ver:

what IOS ver can I upgrade to that is not already deferred?
have one 3750G stack with 4 switches and this stack is presenting the follow log message:
%PLATFORM_UCAST-4-PREFIX: One or more, 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.
In this stack we are using the layer 3 with OSPF routing, and the current sdm prefer is default:

I have 6509 E. Actually what happen it last 3-4 times it reload its self and got stuck in rommon mode, i tried to boot it with boot by connecting a console cable on supervisor 720 2b. What and where is problem and why is stuck in rommon after reload.
I have a Catalyst 3560-X PoE that suddenly stopped working. I plugged in via console and below is the output I received. It scrolls constantly and I am unable to enter ROMMON mode or stop it from scrolling. I've read of a possible problem with the IOS version but I'm unable to verify due to not being able to stop the scrolling.

We did an upgrade from NX-OS 5.1.5 to 5.2.4 and found all M1 line card interfaces were stuck in initializing state for long time.'show module' status says ok. And we cannot execute shut/no shut command under the interface. N7K-M108X2-12L & N7K-M148GT-11 are the two M series cards. Only option was to downgrade back for the time being.
N7K01# sh int e1/1 | in down Ethernet1/1 is down (initializing)
I have configured my new 3850 using the command line and all works well. I logged into the web interface expecting to see device manager with a pretty image of the switch etc.
However I am presented with the Express Setup page and even if i fill in all of the details again and click submit then nothing happens and this is all I can get.
I have a 7600 with ws-sup750 and when it boots it displays these errors:
Cisco IOS Software, s72033_sp Software (s72033_sp-ADVIPSERVICESK9_WAN-M), Version 12.2(33)SXH2a, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)Technical Support: [URL] Firmware compiled 07-Apr-08 22:12 by integ Build [100] 00:00:05: %C6K_PLATFORM-0-UNKNOWN_CHASSIS: The chassis type is not known.(0x6003)
[Code]....
Then it got stuck in rommon, i tried using a 7200 pcmcia card (I downloaded the 7600 IOS there) but if i do from rommon boot disk0:
it complaints with :open: file "c7200-atafslib-m" not found so, it doesn't boot.
Anything I can do to be able to boot this device ?
We have a couple of 7911 that get stuck in Registering, each monday. During the week, no user reports the problem. But after the weekend, we get ready to hear complaints from our collegues. The same phones often experience this issue, although the other phones report no problems. The problem is temporarily solved when we issue "shut/no shut" on switch ports.
I am currently having performance issues running a 3 x stack 3750G (different models) as a core for a network of roughly 12 x distribution switches. [code] As above, I have a 12 port Fibre switch and 2 x 3750G-48 port switches. [code] I tried to change the SDM to route but hit another issue where the 3750g-48 does not support SDM route so I had to revert back to desktop VLAN.Could the SDM Template be the reason for slow performance? If so which SDM Template should i use as this is the Core L3 switch.
I currently have a stack of 3750G switches with a cross stack etherchannel connected to a 3750E stack in the distribution layer.The 3750G stack is running 15.0-2SE IP Base. I began noticing the Mac flap issue when I was Re-enabling dot1x on the switchports. As first I thought dot1x maybe have contributed to this so I removed it from the stack temporarily.I am still seeing Mac flap logs usually when a machine reboots or re-connects back to the network. These are all wired desktops.I started looking at the etherchannel configuration which is using LACP. The 3750E stack looks fine with all ports in mode active. On the problematic 3750G stack I noticed 3 of the ports in the etherchannel set to mode active and 1 port set to mode passive. The port shows as bundled but I can't imagine this is ok.The only other difference on this one port is there is no mls qos commands like on the other 3 interfaces in the port channel.I mainly need to know what the Mac flapping is about. Whether it is a bug or related to the current etherchannel configuration.
I have a 48-port 3750G switch (model # WS-C3750G-48TS-S). How do I determine which ports are grouped per ASIC on the 3750G switch? For example, is the grouping ports 1-8 is serviced by ASIC 1, ports 9-16 is serviced by ASIC 2, ports 17-24 is serviced by ASIC 3, etc. If it exists, what is the IOS command to show the mapping of ports to ASIC?
