I am currently running a 4506 with a sup V engine. I have purchased a sup 7 engine. Is there a guide on how to perform this task. I am sure I need to do an IOS update as well.
View 2 RepliesI have an older 4006 with a Supervisor II+. We now need OSPF support, which the Sup II+ does not provide. I have access to a Supervisor III (WS-X4014), which will provide OSPF support. Question is, are there any gotchas to shutting down the switch, replacing Supervisor Engines and then powering up? What about the flash card? On my current system, it appears that I am only using bootflash: , which is where the IOS resides (see below). Since my startup config is in nvram and my IOS is in bootflash, what's the purpose of the flash card in slot0: ? and where does NVRAM and bootflash actually live on a 4006 ( on the Supervisor Engine?)
sh bootvar
BOOT variable = bootflash:cat4500-ipbase-mz.122-31.SGA11.bin,1;,1;
CONFIG_FILE variable does not exist
BOOTLDR variable does not exist

I have been asked to upgrade the IOS images on three 4506 switches with a single Supervisor IV engine in each to allow for SSH2 access.The current image is cat4000-i5s-mz.122-25.EWA.bin..I have uploaded cat4000-i5k91s-mz.122-25.EWA14.bin to bootflash on each Supervisor engine.The ROM on each SUP IV is 12.1(20r). I don't want to have to upgrade the ROM version.Will the cat4000-i5k91s-mz.122-25.EWA14.bin image retain all the current features of the current image and provide SSH2 support, without requiring a ROM upgrade?Each switch has 512 Mb of RAM.If this image will accomplish what I want, what are the commands used to select the new image from bootflash. I'm familiar with image updates on fixed chassis switches using the boot system flash command.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy existing 4006 chassis is using Supervisor III (WS-X4014). I have another 4506 chassis using Supervisor IV (WS-X4515) and a Net flow Services Card (WS-F4531) build on top of it.
I need Net flow Services Card in 4006, so can I just replace the Supervisor IV (WS-X4515) used in Cisco 4006? Is it compatible with 4006?

I am implementing a guest wireless network to work alongside my internal network. The guest network will use the existing switching network and will be separated by VLANs. I have the ASA set so that traffic can get to it and out to the Internet. I can set up a workstation on the same VLAN as my guest network and can route inside my network (strictly doing this for testing purposes). Where I am having problems is with the Catalyst 4506 switches and the ip routing. I had two separate "ip route" statements defined on my switches.
ip route 10.200.2.0 255.255.255.0 10.200.2.254
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.100.100.254
I have discovered that the traffic is always following the default route despite the fact that my IP address on my test workstation falls in the 10.200.2.x network. I was looking at documentation and found that it is possible to set up policy-based routing on the core switches. Can you have two "ip route" statements defined like this to segreate traffic or do I have to use PBR for routing (or a combination) in this case? If I define PBR then how does that impact my existing routing? I need to make sure that I can still route the existing traffic while I'm configuring this change.
We have 2 sites, each with 2 x 4506 switches which will be connected togther using an etherchannel. The switches will provide access ports for client devices and will be configured with HSRP to provide gateway redundancy. SW1 will be HSRP active.2 metro ethernet links will be installed in each site which will connect back to our HQ sites. OSPF will be used over the backbone to provide resiliency and to allow shortest path routing to each HQ and to prevent traffic over the HQ to HQ link.
The 4506 will be trunked togther with an SVI for providing OSFP adjacency.For the traffic flow from SW2 to HQ2, traffic will hit SW1 and then route back to SW2 and then to HQ2. Is this the best way to do this? Should a second link be connected between switches just for routing or should something like GLBP be used?
CiscoSwitch1(4506) has 3 VLANs(12,13,14) and Switch2(4948) has 3 different VLANs(22,23,24) and IP routing has been enabled in both switches with SVI interfaces for each vlan. intervlan routing is works fine.Now there is a requirement to connect these switches together. Vlan 12 on the Cisco switch 4506 has to be made available from vlan 22 from Switch2(4948). basically Vlan 12 is having a multicast source (225.0.0.0 & 226.0.0.0) which should be accessabile from vlan 22 of cisco switch 4948.I got 2 ideas
1) Create a trunk between these switches and configure L2 vlan(12) in cisco 4948...i know theoritically it should work but what my concern is Ip routing enabled in both switches will it create any issues? is it a gud solution to this requirement?
2) Create a separate IP network on the ports connecting to both switches and set up routes to the networks.ex- console(config)#ip route 192.168.10.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.1.
I am configuring multicast in a environment where I have a 4506 at each site (4 total) and a 6506 as the core. Each 4506 is connected via layer 3 to the 6506. I have a mix of 3560s, 3548s, and 2960s connected to the 4506s and the 6506 via layer 2 trunk
I have multiple multicast sources and hosts communicating at a time (multiple cameras sending video / multiple computers receiving video). So this is not a scenario where there is 1 sender and many receivers. This would be many senders (~50) and some receivers (~10)

I configured ip multicast-routing on each of the 4506s and on the 6506. IGMP snooping is on by default on the 3560 and 2960 switches. CGMP is on by default on the 3548 switches.
I set up PIM sparse-dense mode and IGMP version 3 on each of the layer 3 interfaces for the 4506s and 6506 where they connect and on each VLAN that is sending or receiving multicast. Multicast is working throughout the network, however I am looking to verify the configuration as I scale this out to more clients on the network.
#1 - Is it correct to us sparse-dense mode in this configuration?
#2 - Do I need to configure a rendezvous points using AUTO-RP? (ip pim send-rp-announce INTERFACE scope TTL). Not sure here if I need to designate this and what to choose. Right now I do not have this and it is working, but documentation seems to infer that I need to designate this.
#3 - Is there any other configuration settings I should be considering? I hard to find real world configurations of multicast as examples or people that know multicast routing well.

We are attempting to PXE boot from clients obtaining their DHCP lease information from DHCP pools configured on our 4506. The PXE server, and the client are configured in separate VLANs. We have configured option 66 to point to the PXE server IP address, and the bootfile option to point to the PXE boot configuration filename. On the client side SVI, we also have configured the ip helper-address command to point to the PXE server (which also acts as another DHCP server for redundancy).
The PXE boot continuously fails stating it is unable to find the configuration file. If we remove the DHCP pool from the 4506, and allow the client to receive their DHCP lease info from the secondary server (Windows 2k8 - same server as PXE server), they PXE boot with no issues.
We have no problem obtaining DHCP info, just completion of the PXE process.
Does SUP 7E is comatible with IOS? It came with IOS-XE preloaded and there are no IOS software listed under downloads.
View 3 Replies View RelatedYesterday I've faced a Problem that is not letting me boot with the new IOS.
Actually I'm planning upgrade IOS which supports SSH. As part of plan I've downloaded the new IOS image and uploaded via TFTP server to the switch.
After uploading to the switch. I've verified image and MD5 hash also. Everthing is fine. Then after I set the boot variable for the newly uploaded Image.
When I'm rebooting the Device it is not taking the new IOS. It's booting with the OLD image. Even It's not showing any error message while rebooting (ACTIVITY FILE ATTACHED FOR YOUR REFERENCE) I can't take risk by deleting the old IOS.
I have 4506 with below sup, my requirement is to enable netfolw , but as i came to know that it is not supported in this sup, is there any additional option which can be explored to get the netflow working without replacing sup.

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy inherited network has a Cisco Catalyst 4506 with a WS-X4124FX–MT fiber card that connects to twelve Cisco 2950 switches over 62.5 micron multimode fiber at 100 Mbps. I do not know my run lengths (or even where the conduits run), but the furthest switches are well over a thousand feet from the server room. Any appropriate test equipment to provide this information soon.
We are looking at upgrading the main switch to a Catalyst WS-C4507+E with two WS-X4712-SFP+E cards and the closets to Cisco 2960S-48TD-L switches. Assuming this is a reasonable move, my question is about choosing the appropriate SFP’s for our current and future needs.
I am aware that 62.5 micron multimode fiber is the least favorable for extended lengths, but I will not be in a position to replace it for at least a year. If I purchase 10 Gbps modules, like the SFP-10G-SR or SFP-10G-LRM, can they “throttle down”, either automatically or by setting a parameter, to communicate at slower speeds over distances that exceed their 10 Gbps maximum link lengths on multimode fiber?
We want to permit certain mac addresses on the cat 4506 switch wherein only those mac addresses will get access to network.
Configuration Planned: For testing purpose we have created mac access list on cat 4506 and deny laptop mac address in this access list. The mac access group is applied to the port where the laptop is connected to cat 4506.Even after applying the mac access group on the port, the laptop is able to ping the vlan ip of cat 4506 [code]
laptop with ip address 192.168.10.2/24 connected to port 2/1 is able to ping 192.168.10.1 even after applying the mac access-group
Note-we have tested same configuration on cat 3560 and its working fine. We apply the mac access-group command on interface and clear the arp-cache and we are not able to ping vlan interface ip. The moment we remove the mac access-group,ping starts again.
