Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750X Port Channel Load Balancing Protocols

Jan 15, 2012

What I am attempting to achieve is to aggregate trunk ports out of a VMware server into a single logical connection to give as much bandwidth as possible, the switches are 3750X and are three stacked together with the server connections spread across the stack. What I am not sure about is if two port channel load balance protocols can happy co-exist on the switch, by default the switch is using MAC address load balancing and Vmware wants to use IP Source load balancing. As other trunks and channels exist on the switch I don't want to make a change that will affect the other live connections if changing this is a global setting and not local on the channel.

I have an inquiry about a configuration I deploy in a C2960 switch. I have configured a ether channel with 8 ports, the load balanced method is source mac address. The bundling protocol is LACP.
 
I have found the ether channel is not balanced as I expect. One of the eight interfaces is congested.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Configure Multi-chassis Port-channel Between VSS And 3750X?

Feb 26, 2012

Possible to configure multichassis port-channel between a VSS and 3750X (Port-channel not in the same switch on the 3750X stack). I got it using LACP but I need Pagp to get VSL redundancy “dual-active detection pagp trust channel-group 1”. I am using the last VSS IOS version 15.0(1)SY. I can’t get the option “switch 1 preempt”, has it changed with other option?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750X - Adding Ports To Existing Port-channel

Jan 29, 2013

I need to tear down an existing port-channel on a 3750X running c3750e-universalk9-mz.150-1.SE3.bin. This port channel is currently down down. It has three ports in it that will be added one each to three existing port-channels, I am assuming as long as the "channel-group" command is exactly the same as it is on the three existing port-channels I should be ok just adding the new port. One point to note is that the three existing port-channels all have three ports so this will be adding the fourth port to each port-channel. I know after reading that it is a best practice for load balancing to use either 2, 4, or 8 ports for a port-channel. Also what is the command to see all ports that are in a port channel?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 2248 / Port-Channels On N2K Not Load Balancing?

Sep 5, 2012

I have a dual-homed fabric (Nexus 2248 dual attached to two Nexus 5020's via vPC).  On this Nexus 2248 is a server that has a four port LACP etherchannel.  The ports do not appear to be load balancing correctly.  The output below shows the four ports in use and it clearly shows port e138/1/10 as getting the most use.  When I use the "show port-channel load-balance forwarding-path..." command on either of the vPC switches for various source and destination IP's that use this link, it shows them correctly load-balancing across the four ports.  But we do not see this when looking at stats on both the server side and the switch side. 
 
dc5020-3g# sh int e138/1/10,e138/1/12,e138/1/14,e138/1/16 | i seconds
  30 seconds input rate 552 bits/sec, 69 bytes/sec, 0 packets/sec
  30 seconds output rate 130120 bits/sec, 16265 bytes/sec, 161 packets/sec
  Load-Interval #2: 5 minute (300 seconds)
  30 seconds input rate 40 bits/sec, 5 bytes/sec, 0 packets/sec

[code]....
 
**************** Config info below.  This is a vPC pair and the port configs are identical on both switches so I'm only showing the configs for one switch to keep it simple.
 
dc5020-3g# sh port-channel load-balance

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Stack 3750X - How To Configure Port Channel To Aggregate Two Links

Feb 18, 2013

I have two stacks 3750X on two different sites with two links L_2_L, and I want to configure the port channel to aggregate the two links.
 
Site A                                                                                                  Site B
3750X -A1 --------------------------------------(          )--------------------------------------- 3750X -B1
                                                      (  L-2-L )
3750X -A2 --------------------------------------(          )--------------------------------------- 3750X -B2

Below the configuration that I have put the two stacks.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Possible Load Balancing On 2821 Router?

Apr 15, 2012

I have a 2821 Router, with a VWIC2-2MFT card in it, with two T1s going into that card.  The two T1s are a bundled MPLS line.
 
I then have a cable modem connection going into the gigabit Ethernet GE 0/1 port on the router.
 
Right now, the cable modem provides a backup connection in case the T1s go down.
 
What I was wondering is if there was a way to 'combine' the bandwidth from the two T1s with the cable modem?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: CSS 11501 - Configuring CSS Content / Load Balancing

Feb 3, 2012

I would like configure a CSS content, that uses the sorry service principal in an advanced way.

I am familiar with the primary Sorry Server command and see that the CSS would send all connections to the named service that is configured as the primary Sorry Server.

What I would like to do is to configure the CSS, so that once it’s decided it’s in a “sorry” state (all the services that are configured with “add service” are down) that it load balances to a different set of services.

To explain what I’ve been trying to do in the form of configuration on the CSS, I’ve pasted some pretend config below.

Connections come into IP address 1.1.1.1, which normally get load balanced between  9.1.1.1, 9.1.1.2 and 9.1.1.3.

If 9.1.1.1, 9.1.1.2 and 9.1.1.3 are all down, the sorry service is used and the CSS starts passing traffic to 1.1.2.1, which I want it to load balance between  9.1.2.1, 9.1.2.2 and 9.1.2.3.

The order that I have applied the config, is different to the below, as I set out to configure in this order: secondary services, secondary content, sorry service, primary services, primary content.

The order of the config below is different, because I wanted it in the order that the traffic flows and the CSS won’t take the config in that order!

The wall I have ran into, is that when I try to create the service I have named “Sorry Service”, I get the following error:

%% Service IP Address conflicts with a local I/F, VIP, mg mt route.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 4500X EtherChannel Symmetric Load Balancing

May 8, 2013

I have probem with symmetric load balancig, in case when both ends of ether channel are on the sam switch (we are using VLAN translation).We need to create L2 port channel with both ends on same switch (Cisco WS-C4500X-24X-ES), for example:Po1 – Gi0/1, Gi0/3 (one end of port channel )Po2 – Gi0/2, Gi0/4 (other end of port channel)On ports in Po2 we will configure VLAN mapping.My question is what is the best ether-channel load-balancing scheme with wich we can accomplish full symmetry in both directions? For example, if traffic in one direction goes through Gi0/1 (member of Po1), in other direction also must go through Gi0/1. This is required because we need to connect four appliances for DPI (they are full L2 transparent) and traffic through each appliance need to be symmetric.
 
I can set-up src-ip, dst-ip, src-dst-ip etc. load balancing, but, actually I need src-ip on Po1 and dst-ip on Po2. Is there any way to set up different load balancing mechanism for different ether channel on same switch (4500X).

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509 - Load Balancing Nexus Switches

Jan 24, 2013

I am trying to understand what load balancing method is used on a port channel on a Nexus switch . I have a server connected by a VPC to two Nexus switches. The nexus switches are only acting as layer 2 switches. I have a 6509 connected via a upstream link that does all of the routing for my VLANS. If  have a server connected to the Nexus switches and it talks to a server on my 6509 what load balancing happens on the Nexus going across VPC 27 which is a layer 2 trunk going up to my 6509. Is it done on layer 2 or layer 3 flows?
 
My Nexus shows the default load balancing configurations

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509 - Etherchannel Load Balancing Between Two Switches

Mar 5, 2012

Is it possible to use two different load balancing methods at each end of a port-channel between two switches?
 
We have a Cisco 6509 at one end of the port-channel and a Cisco blade switch 3020 at the other end.  Right now, we are using "src-dst-ip" at both end of the port-channel.  We would like to change this.  That is, we would like the #3020 switch to use "src-dst-ip" while the 6509 switch should use the "src-dst-port". 
  
Why we want to do this, the reason is that we have FWSMs on the 6509.  I've read that by configuring "src-dst-port" on the 6509, one can get a better performance of traffic going through the FWSM.  However, the issue is that the 3020 switch does not support "src-dst-port".

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Created Load Balancing Between Two Catalyst 3550 On Couple Of Vlans

Feb 24, 2012

I am testing on lab equipment (2 Catalyst 3550 and 1 Catalyst 3560) HSRP version 1 and 2.I successfully created a load balancing between the two Catalyst 3550 on a couple of vlans (11 and 12) on ver 1
 
now, just adding the command "standby xx version 2" my hosts on the 2 vlans are completely unable to ping the virtual IP def. gw on debugging i checked that msgs are exchangedthe two cat 3550 are seeing each other on HSRP (active / standby roles)the real ip addresses are pingable rebooted the swiches (just as a last resort try)deleted arp chache on hostsremoved the auth on hsrp  all of this no effect.
 
i also tried to modify the priority on the cat 3560 (before he was on both vlans in standby) to make it the active one and with the same config it worked flawlessly.
 
My only idea is that there is a bug on CATs 3550 (IOS: c3550-ipservicesk9-mz.122-55.SE4.bin) [code]
