Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6500 Ethernet Sub-interfaces Over Metro Ethernet
Feb 20, 2012
I curently have 2 Data centers connected with a Metro Ethernet Connection. Each Data Center has 6500 with Sup720s. The Metro Ethernet connection is currently conected by a L3 routed interface. I now need to enable VRFs between the locations and want to determine the best way to adjust the Mero. I was considering adjusting the routed interface to use Ethernet sub-interfaces. Each VRF would be given a different subinterface over the Metro Ethernet connection. I have done this on internal LAN connections but am concerned about exteding across data centers over Metro E.

we are setting up our first ATT metro ethernet connection. I have a Cisco 2960S at the remote site and I placed a Cisco 2960 on the Host site to test and had no issues. When I moved the Host site to our Nexus 7000, I can not get a link.. both sides are set as trunks,

Is it possible to implement LLQ(QoS) on ethernet modules in the Cat 6500? For this feature, I can only find documentation about ES+ modules or SPA/SIP modules! (according to the feature navigator LLQ is supporten on the concerning HW and SW image)

My company uses a Sonicwall NSA 3500 as it's Firewall/WLAN controller and lightweight Sonicpoints for the private/public WIFI access. We are getting ready to implement wireless at one of our branch locations a few blocks away(We use Metro Ethernet to connect the 2).I know with the current firmware the Sonicpoints can't provision to the Sonicwall NSA over the Metro Ethernet like Cisco lightweight AP's can because the Metro Ethernet strips their VLAN Tags and obviously the Sonicpoints don't support REAP.what other options (short of installing another WLAN controller at the remote site) do I have to connect the AP's at the WLAN controller at our main location.

We are in the process of upgrading the bandwidth at a few offices. Each currently have a 2xT-1 connection but have high utilization on the circuit which is why they are being upgraded. We are trying to decide b/t either a partial DS3 or metro ethernet connection. Are there pros/cons b/t the two in order to decide which to go with? Cost is not an issue. Some say going with a partial DS3 circuit offers benefits over metro ethernet such as network-based failover, end-to-end availability is better with DS-3 and QoS.

my company will change WAN connection from HDSL (2Mb/2Mb) to Metro Ethernet (10Mb/10Mb). Now, I have CISCO 1841 (12.4(15)T12 ) with 2 FE and HWIC-1T. Can i configure my Metro Ethernet (WAN Connection) on one FE or i need of "external wic" such as hwic-1FE ?

I am planning on implementing a metro ethernet circuit to replace a more expensive circuit to connect my office and data center. This circuit will be configured by the provider in a 'transparent' manner, which will allow us to pass vlans freely over the circuit without having to create a QinQ tunnel. This is a layer 2 only metro ethernet circuit.Planning on connecting the office end to a 3750 (switch A) and the data center end to a 2960 (switch B). The data center end will have a couple of other 2960s hanging off of it for server connectivity (switches C & D). I plan to use a 2811 (router A)for layer 3 connectivity in the data center. Switch B will plug into router A and switches C & D will plug into switch B using two port-channelled links. I can post a diagram if needed.I will use rpvst here and configure switch B as the root bridge.There are about 10 vlans that I use between the office and data center. Router A is also used to connect to other environments such as staging, production and also to the internet. I think this should be a straight-forward configuration since it is mostly layer 2. Should switch B be the root bridge?

I am trying to configure a new metro ethernet and have some questions about the configuration. The physical layout is a main office and two remote locations. The remote sites are point-to-point connections to the main office, tagged by the ISP with VLAN 130 and VLAN 140. The connections aggregate into one handoff at the main office, and are plugged into Catalyst 3750-X switches at all three sites.

I am preparing to move two branch offices from a point to point T1 connection to Century Link Metro Ethernet.Currently my branch locations connect to my HQ 7204 router via a channelized DS3. I have a 4507R at HQ that I will connect the ME circuit to.We will also be moving our Internet connection on the ME circuit.Our service provider Clink will hand me a single Ethernet handoff for the Internet and branch office connections. For the first phase I will connect one branch office using ME. Once that is in place and tested we will move another office and so on. Then our final step is to move our web connection to the ME circuit.Each branch office has their own unique voice and data subnet. They each have a 2801 router and a 3560 switch. The routers are MGCP gateways with only one PSTN connection, a POTs 911 line on a FXO port.
So my questions are;
1 - Should I connect the ME directly in to the 3560 at the branch offices or use the Fa0/1 on the 2801? Fa0/0 is currently connected to the 3560.
2 - On my 4507R at HQ how will I configure the ME switch port? As a dot1q trunk port?
3 - Given that ME is basically a LAN connection will I have to re IP the branch office? HQ is 10.10.1.x/24. Branch is 10.10.166.x/24 (data) 192.168.166.x/24 (voice).
4 - On the 4507R will I need to configure a vlan interface for each branch subnet?
I attached two network diagrams. One represents our current topology (MEexisting) and the second represents the new ME circuit changes (MEprojected).

Today my sw upgrade procedure failed on a ME3600 Series switch.
From the past with LAN switches i thought that we need to set IP settings manually in ROMMON and then load remotely an IOS via TFTP.
But it seems that this is not supported there.So now i would like to ask how can i bring a bootable IOS to the ME3600 switch. and at least: how can i bring back my switch to life.
I could imagine that there is a missing default gateway.But what is the syntax for default gateway? And after I have connectivity i need to work for the process of loading a bootable image to the switch.

I have a machine with two ethernet cards and internet connection, on which Ubuntu 12.04 is installed.Both ethernet cards can take ip adress automatically say,
eth0:47.168.137.14 and eth1:47.168.137.15
I can ping eth0 but can not ping eth1.
Is there a special setting for gettting both ethernet interface active and reachable at the same time.

Have followed the admin guide, and can setup this up fine, however what we're wanting is to turn off any IP connection for the main wan ethernet interface and only have the sub-interface have an IP connection method.
I can't see how you can turn this off, which is causing a double-up of dhcp requests being sent when using both the main/sub ethernet interfaces to use dhcp.
This has been tested on the 521w and 521w-u versions, and I've just used the latest firmware 1.2.4 on the u version.
How can this be configured so that there is only 1 WAN interface that is using IP (the sub interface) Setting default routes to point to the sub interface doesn't make a difference.

I am looking to configure port up/down status alerts in our monitoring system. We are using ActiveXperts Newtork Monitor Manager, which supports SNMP GET, which I would like to use. The monitoring system supports a plethra of OID data types, which I've used (Integet, ASG_INTEGET, ASGN_INTEGER32) in the past with success on our Catalyst 2k's. I'm not certain what to use for the Numeric OID value to monitor the port states on our F1 and M1 line cards.

I know serial interfaces are called that because they put bits on the wire serially - i.e. one bit at a time. If that's the case for serial interfaces, how do other kinds of interfaces, such as Ethernet interfaces, put bits on the wire? Do they somehow put more than one bit on the wire at a time? I assume it's a faster process, but how so?

It is my understanding that ACLs can only be bound to logical interfaces using the access-group command. However, is it possible to somehow apply ACLs simply based on the ASA's local Ethernet interface? For instance, consider the following:
Device A with IP 192.168.1.1/24 is connected to Ethernet0/0 on the ASA. Device B with IP 192.168.1.2/24 is connected to Ethernet0/1 on the ASA.
Since both devices are in the same subnet and presumably the same VLAN, is it possible to manipulate the traffic to and from physical Ethernet interfaces using ACLs in this manner?
My predicament is fairly simple:
Internet --- ASA --- ROUTER
|
DMZ
In addition to NAT, VPN, and various other tricks, my ASA is also routing traffic from my internal LAN and the Internet to servers in the DMZ configured on the ASA. Due to a combination of Internet and DMZ traffic, my relatively slow ASA is struggling to route and thus becoming a bottleneck. My router is comparatively modest in terms of functionality when compared to the ASA but it is fast. My ideal solution would be to somehow harness the ASA's filtering capabilities for my DMZ but use the router to get traffic to and from my internal LAN into the DMZ without using the ASA to route it.
Additionally, it is worth noting that my DMZ is fairly restrictive so using protected or isolated ports would not quite work for me.

I had a question regarding the Cisco 2811. I tried fitting an NM 2FE-2W card and the fast Ethernet interfaces of the module never get recognized. Is there a special command to enable it or isn't the module supported at all by the router. If not , is there a way to have the router possess more than the 2 Fast Ethernet interfaces it already has? Let me know if any more info is needed from my end.
Another question I have out of curiosity. Is it possible to make the controller T1 port of a VWIC 1MFT-T1 or a VWIC 2MFT-T1 act as a fast Ethernet.

We have a Cisco 7206 VXR Router with NPE-G2. As everybody aware that, It has got 3 x Gigabit Ethernet Ports on this. We would like to add Two more Copper Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces. The Configurator does not show any options to add that...
Now we have a doubt that, Does this 7206 VXR support how many Copper Gigabit Ethernet Interface ?. There is no clear answer available in the Data Sheets.

It is understood that sub-50 ms ERPS convergence can be achieved with certain HW/SW combinations.
1) What are the platforms supported (and with what FW/SW) has this been tested ?any results that can be shared?
2) Link failure detection in GigE on Copper is slower compared to GigE over "pure" Fibre; so no sub-50ms would be possible with Copper ring ports.is sub-50ms convergence achievable with "combo SFP ports" ?

There is some way to increase the speed of changing the interface state from DOWN to UP when the cable is connected. I need to configure a port of Cisco 4503 in a way that when a cable is connected the port goes immediatly UP.
A solution can be to keep Cisco interface always UP and I remember that with "no keepalive" command to the interface configuration it was possible. But I tried and nothing happens.

I am having a heck of a time finding information on this. I have a 2620xm router that only has one Ethernet port on it. Is there an expansion I can get that allows me another Ethernet port. I have thus far assumed that all of the WIC cards won't allow me to attach to an Ethernet LAN.

I own a Cisco 892W router. The router has 2 WAN ports and 8 switch ports. Now I know -
-WAN ports can create sub interfaces, assigne IPs, cannot be assigned to a VLAN - sounds very much like a routing port. (sh interface gives - Hardware is PQII_PRO_UEC)
-Switch ports are for VLAN assignment, trunking, IP assigment etc,. (sh interface gives Hardware is Fast Ethernet)
I know they are different but at the same time confuced what the difference are? I also know on some 3xxx series switchs you could say "no switchport" and translate a switch port to a layer 3 port. But on 892W you can't do this? Struggeling to understand the difference.

I am having a problem with my Realtek RTL8168D/8111D PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC. It is not detecting my ethernet cable, and thus leaving me without internet on my desktop, after i updated its driver. The cable is not the problem as I have tested the cable with my laptop. I tried rolling back drivers, doing system restore and removing drivers with driversweeper and letting windows install the drivers again. However, none of these worked for me. I doubt the NIC is faulty as it was working before i updated the drivers. I am using windows 7 home premium 64-bit.

I have cisco 1801W . Earlier I am using ADSL dynamic IP address on RJ 11 through the ADSL Port but now the ISP change the connection to RJ45.
I am trying to configure it but unable to do this. ADSL line is okay because When I am connecting through the ISP router it is working fine. I have connected the ADSL RJ45 cable in the router fast ethernet 0.But I wanted to use Cisco 1801 Router so that I can use the ADSL as primary and ISDN as the backup.
Below is my configuration, eiteher this is possible to configure ADSL through RJ45 in 1801 and what configuration require for this.
