can i have 4 links from an ESX server to 6500 , each link represents a trunk link carries each the same 2 VLAN , 100 and 101 , keep port-channel out of the picture , does it work well?
View 12 RepliesI need adding a vlan to the trunks bundled in port channel. I know how to add v lans to a port channel with Cisco IOS but with CAT OS.
I have 2 ports bundled to form ether channel in switch which is running CAT OS. There are already few v lans allowed in the trunk of each interface. now I need to add one more v lan.
For Example:-
v lan 135 needs to be added in addition to the existing v lans.
clear trunk1/2 1-112,115,117-134,136-4094
set trunk 1/2 on dot1q 113-114,116,135
and similarly on the 2nd interface
so if I add vlan135 to the trunk one after another will it cause any service disruption?
I need to implement the shaping VLAN only on the trunk link between the 6500 and 3560. [code]
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have several closets with Cisco 3560 on the edge that I'd like to change the vlan that's used for the management vlan on each. In the core I have a Cisco 6509 with Sup720's.
I'd like to do this by changing the native vlan on the trunk port on the core 6509 interface that connects to the 3560. and leave the management vlan on the 3560 as vlan 1.
Seems trivial but what I tried didn't work and I didn't have the window to troubleshoot. I'll paste the simplified configs for the interfaces below

Any way to test in a lab what would happen if a tech mistakingly added "switchport voice vlan XX" to a trunk port? I am try to do some RCA on an issue and this has been identified as a possible cause by one of my techs.
The config is Switch1------Switch2--------Switch3 Each interswitch connection is configured as a dot1q trunk with all vlans allowed. The link between switch2 and 3 is where switchport voice vlan 10 was added. Switch1 is a 3750 and 2/3 are 3560's.
I have a 3750g connected to a "core" switch stack of 7 other 3750g's via 2 GigE ports in a trunk. This is currently in a switchport mode access port- channel so only the default vlan data is sent over. Now we have a need due to physical location of these switches, to allow vlan20 (DMZ) from this 3750g to the switch stack. I will configure a few ports on the switch stack for vlan20 and they need to be able to talk to the stand alone 3750g.To do this I will change the port channel on both endpoints to
-switchport trunk ecapsulation dot1q
-switchport mode dynamic desirable
also making the appropriate change on the interfaces belonging to this trunk.My question is, now that its a trunk port that carries multiple VLANs, how much is the bandwidth reduced on that 2gbps link?I have a very active VLAN (10) on the stand alone switch, but on the core I'm not going to be assigning VLAN 10 to any ports. So does traffic from VLAN10 even come across the trunk (wasting bandwidth) if no ports on the core side are assigned to it? I really just need vlan 1 and 20 (for now).
I have 2 hosts, 1 plugged in fa 0/21 in VLAN 101 and another in fa 0/22 in VLAN 101 on our L2 Cisco 2960. If I try and transfer files from either host the gig 0/1 trunk port on the 2960 leading tot he 3750 fa 0/1 port hits 100mb (using a real time bandwidth monitor tool), but why? This VLAN is on the same switch, why does it go one way up the trunk to the L3 3750 switch? The L3 3750 is the VTP server and the 2960 is a client. I would of thought the traffic stays local. The 2 hosts don't even have a gateway set.To sum up the typology the 2960 and 3750 are trunked using a single cable. The 3750 hangs of a ASA firewall using SVIs.Here is whatthe traffic looks like when copying a file between hosts (2gb file).

I need to set QOS in our new network. We have connected 2 cities together with 700Mbit leased line. On each side we have Catalyst 2960S switches and between them is TRUNK for VLAN 10 and Vlan 20.Vlan 10 is for IPTV (fixed 400 Mb/s for CATV)Vlan 20 is for Internet (rest).Sometimes is happening that Vlan 20 takes more than 400 Mb/s for a few seconds and in this situation we have problems with CATV.Is there any way to make a guaranteed bandwidth 410 Mb/s for CAT - VLAN 10 on this swithces?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a 2960 switch connected to another. The I need to verify that vlan0010 on one switch is forwarding tagged traffic between the other switch it is hooked up to through the Gi0/1 port. How do I verify this? I have a server that's multihomed (Broadcom) on the other side an it is supposed to be on this vlan with one of it's network interfaces. We had a pwer outage and now it cannot communicate on this vlan. However, everything else on the vlan can reach all the other nodes accept this server in the front of my building. All the devices in the same room are linked to the same switch which has one port (fa0/17) on vlan0010 and can ping eachother just fine. The server is hooked to port 24 on my server room switch and Gigabit port one goes to a fiber converter all the way to the back. It then gets converted from fiber to cat5e again and links into the switch (2960) in the backroom.
View 5 Replies View RelatedNeed to limit the amount of bandwidth a specific VLAN can use on a 802.1q trunk port. Situation is that we have a pair of Catalyst 4506 switches which have 802.1q trunk ports into a Checkpoint Firewall, this in turn is connected to a managed WAN router (to which I can't apply a QoS policy).If the 4506 was routing the traffic it would be easy to setup a class-map to match the IP traffic and then QoS the traffic, but the VLAN in question is trunked directly into the firewall (no L3/IP presence on the 4506 next hop for all clients on this VLAN is the firewall).What I need to do is restrict any traffic from this specific VLAN to 10Mbps on the uplink to the Checkpoint Firewall so it cannot impact the onward WAN.
View 1 Replies View Relateda number of vlan on trunk is 4096, can I limit this number? I need trunk pass only 10 vlans.
View 1 Replies View RelatedCurrently we have a 6513 core (running IOS and doing limited routing) with VLAN Trunking to about a dozen 3560 edge switches, with various VLANs going to each of the edge switches. All works well. We are downsizing and replacing the 6513 core with a 3750G stack. We have the stack up and running in the lab, and want to slowly (as we move floors) migrate all of the edge switching to the 3750 stack.
The plan is to connect the 3750 stack to the 6513, then slowly migrate the edge switches to the stack (from the 6513). I would like to put in place 4 x 1GB trunk links between the 6513 and the 3750 stack before I start moving edge switches to ensure adequate bandwidth. Once all of the edge switches are on the new 3750 stack, I will start to decommission the 6513.
What is the best way to configure the links between the cores (old 6513 and new 3750 stack)? I can easily get the edge switches configured to the 3750, but am worried about the core links. I really want to avoid having to perform an all-at-once cutover of the cores. Another question is when do I try and migrate the VTP server role from the 6513 to the 3750 stack? I could simply make everything transparent, and ditch server-based VTP, as we rarely change or creat VLANs.
I have a 3750 as a core and have a series of HP Procurve switches that are daisy chained using one port. I have two vlans on the port now (6 &9) and everything works fine, all switches communicate and end devices on the switches are also talking. There is a requirement to add a device towards the end of the chain which requires it to connect using Vlan1. Once I add Vlan1 to the port onthe 3750 I lose connectivity to all the HP switches.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure if I'm missing something basic here however i though that I'd ask the question. I recieved a request from a client who is trying to seperate traffic out of a IBM P780 - one set of VIO servers/clients (Prod) is tagged with vlan x going out LAG 1 and another set of VIO server/clients (Test) is tagged with vlan y and z going out LAG 2. The problem is that the management subnet for these devices is on one subnet.
The infrastructure is the host device is trunked via LACP etherchannel to Nexus 2148TP(5010) which than connects to the distribution layer being a Catalyst 6504 VSS. I have tried many things today, however I feel that the correct solution to get this working is to use an Isolated trunk (as the host device does not have private vlan functionality) even though there is no requirement for hosts to be segregated. I have configured:
1. Private vlan mapping on the SVI;
2. Primary vlan and association, and isolated vlan on Distribution (6504 VSS) and Access Layer (5010/2148)
3. All Vlans are trunked between switches
4. Private vlan isolated trunk and host mappings on the port-channel interface to the host (P780).
I haven't had any luck. What I am seeing is as soon as I configure the Primary vlan on the Nexus 5010 (v5.2) (vlan y | private-vlan primary), this vlan (y) does not forward on any trunk on the Nexus 5010 switch, even without any other private vlan configuration. I believe this may be the cause to most of the issues I am having. Has any one else experienced this behaviour. Also, I haven't had a lot of experience with Private Vlans so I might be missing some fundamentals with this configuration.
I am looking into the possibility of using private vlan's for some dmz implementations however I do have what may be some very rudimentary questions. It seems straightforward how to configure the primary/secondary vlan configuration as well as associating them. However in my case I would be looking to configure the PVLAN on a 6500-vss platform acting as the router while all of the hosts which I would desire to have in the isolated vlan would be spread out across a number of older Cisco switches which only support "protected port" setup or Procurve switches all of which I do not have budget to replace with something newer. So in my scenario I would have a 6500 connected by trunk to multiple switches which only support a protected port setup such as a Procurve (top of rack) or a Cisco 2950. As the Procurve or 2950 would not support Private VLAN setup, do I then just configure the secondary vlan to be allowed across the trunk from the 6500, configure that vlan on the Procurve or 2950 (as vtp will not foward the info for the secondary vlan) and assign that vlan to the host port as well as setting it as a protected port and this will communicate just fine across the trunk to the router as well as stopping the protected port in top of rack switch 1 from being able to communicate to a protected port in top of rack 2,3,etc? If the above scenario is what needs to be done, do I just use a regular trunk or do I have to use a PVLAN trunk?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 2 Cisco 6509 switches linked together via single Fibre as a trunk.I want to change this to a port channel where I will add another 3 fibre ports to the port channel but what order do I do this to minimise any disruption.
1-Configure PortChannel and add the 3 new ports, this will bring up the Port Channel but what effect will this have on traffic currently going over the single Trunk link? Will spanning tree go mad, how will switches react?
2-Convert existing Trunk link to Portchannel then add in new ports to PortChannel, I guess in doing this there will be a small hit on traffic as it changes to a port channel.
We have 7 3560's in 7 different locations connected to our providor for wan access. Our provider has given us a copper cable at each point and we have connected it directly to our 3560 switch at each location. Each port is configured the same way at each location. Each switch is running eigrp.All of the switch ports on each switch are configured as a trunk and vlan 299 had the ip address for the eigrp connection: [code] This setup is working as each switch see's all of the other switches as an eigrp neighbor. We have also made sure that the switch at our head office has spanning tree priority for vlan 299.
So the problem is, if there is a change in the topology at one of the locations it usually causes one or more of the other connections to go down for some reason. We just cannot pinpoint what is causing this change. There are no log's or anything other than an eigrp hold time expired message.?
I have a pair of 3560's configured with dot1q trunks between them carrying a number of VLANs.
Once deployed there will be a requirement for these physical trunks to be disconnected from time to time. Knowing that this is inevitable I am trying to minimise the period of time for the trunks to recover once the physical connectivity is reinstated.
All of the VLANs on the switches are configured for Spanning Tree Rapid PVST. Current time for the trunks/VLANs to come up is around the 4 second mark.
Is it possible to rate limit on a L2 trunk port on a 3750?
current port config and ios are as follows;

i was wondering if the "srr-queue bandwidth limit 10" command would work to limit the output from this interface to be 10 % of the port bandwidth and then the same command could be done on the other side.

I can't seem to get VLAN 79 through to the first switch (3560G). Beyond this switch there is a router with acts as default-gateway for the respective VLANs. For VLAN 79 it is 192.168.79.1. I can ping this from the first switch but can't ping it from the second (3560X) switch but can ping 192.168.25.1 which also is the default gateway for this switch.
On the supervisor card of a cisco 6500 series, according to the following link, [URL] it only has 2 uplink ports on the card. Would I be correct in assuming that I only have those to ports that I can configure IP addresses on?
The cisco that is being devlivere is coming with a 48 port switch and 24 port fibre switch. Could I change any of those ports into a router port and configure IP addresses on those?
The supervisor card is a ws-sup-720-3b the 48 port switch is a ws-x6748-ge-tx the 24 port fibre switch is ws-x6724-sfp
we have a scenario that consists of a Cisco 4507 series core switch with more than 20 vlans which is connected to a C2960G switch( in a nearby building) using a trunk by a fiber connection. Up to this point everyhting is fine . VTP domain is configured on the core switch and we have all of the 20 vlans present correctly on the edge 2960G wich is part of course of this same VTP domain.the fiber connection goes from core switch to a "in the middle location" where we have a fiber patch panel that is connected in a jumper style to another fiber patch panel going to the destination building where the C2960G sits.
Now imagine that Fiber connection from this middle location to the destination C2960 edge switch is down for any possible reason meanwhile the fiber connection from Core switch 4507 to the middle location is still intact.In the same time, in this middle location , we do have a wireless connection which links 1 Cisco 3750G switche ( a different infrastructure and different VTP domain) to another C3560G switch which sits on the same Room in the nearby destination building where we have the edge C2960G, An idea came to me is to connect one of the fiber port (core) in the intact fiber patch panel coming from Core switch 4507 TO an access vlan configured switchport in the 3750G switch ( this switchport will belong to a vlan designed only to trasmit the vlans on the trunk coming from 4507 core switch say VLAN 10) then connect one VLAN 10 access switchport to the destination C2960 edge switch ( the switchport on the c2960G is still a trunk)Will this solution work and all of the 20- 4507 core switch vlans arrive to the destination C2960G ? Or we do need something that tags the 2 VLAN 10 switchports like switchport dot1q tunnel like QinQ
So I took a laptop with wireshark and plugged it into a nexus 5000 port that is configured as a trunk with 3 vlans allowed on it. The laptop was seeing all kinds of traffic on the wire, most of it was not involving my laptop.
For example: Server A VLAN 10= 10.10.10.1 Server B VLAN 20= 10.20.20.1 and wireshark laptop is plugged into a trunk port which is allowing those vlan's. The vlan's are routable.
10.10.10.3 is seeing the entire conversation when 10.10.10.1 backs up 10.20.20.1 even though it has no reason to see it. It is as if the trunk is spanning traffic to the laptop port. No span is setup however. It's really weird. This is not just broadcast traffic, but actual tcp taffic between Server A and B. Why would a trunk port see traffic between 2 other servers talking to each other on the vlan.
Trunk port configuration below:
Interface Ethernet 141/1/3
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allowed vlan 10, 20
I need to find out what is killing my Ethernet wan circuit urgently, It is a Ethernet trunk port with v lans tagged across it.
its a 3560x switch.
I configured span with the replicate keyword, but I'm not seeing all the traffic I'm sure.
I'm using wire shark.
Is there anything I can do to find what is causing this?
We had a core switch (Cisco 4503), distribution switches(Cisco 3750) and access switches in our network and consists of many vlans. Almost all vlans uses DHCP Pools. But for few vlans DHCP is not yet configured due to initial design poblems. Recently one of the rogue user in vlan 1 connected to one of the access switch send rogue arp packets to the network (suspecting arp packet with interface vlan 1 ip of core switch with wrong mac-address (gateway ip of vlan 1)) and resulted in a prolonged network outage for the vlan 1. Any way we are going to seggregate vlan 1 into different vlans, but before that we need a temporary plan to block such kinds of attack like enabling DAI in the switch. I have checked the DAI implemenation feasibility with my knowledge and found that it is not possible to configure to the access switches(Cisco 2960) in which the user directly connected. But found that Distribution switch connected to that particular access switch seems to be able to configure since DAI commands are available to configure in switch.
Is it possible to block ARP packets with the interface vlan 1 IP Address with rogue mac-address by configuring DAI in the above mentioned Distribution switch and the port connected to the mentioned access switch?
The customer has 4 6500 switches. 2 Physical locations, and 2 switches at each locations. The locations are connected via 1 200mpbs metro ethernet(layer 2). We ran into an issue during a DR exercise. We had created a VLAN for DR testing purposes, that did not have any SVI configured, but the VLAN did exist on one of the 6500s. When the customer restored a VM to the DR VLAN, we lost connectivity to the production server. After some troubleshooting, we found the cause to be the same mac address showing up, but in a different vlan. Once we removed the DR vlan from the 6500 all was well. It seems like switches are ignoring the VLAN in the mac address table, and forwarding to the incorrect ports. The switch is not reporting any mac flapping in the logs. No spanning tree topology changes are occurring. Code version is 12.2(33)SXJ2 on all switches.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to restrict Inter-VLAN routing through L3 switch (cisco 6500) and wanted to know best possible way to do it. I used VACL and achieved success to some extent, but my config is making clients take up to 5-6 mins to authenticate IP address from the DNS (bootps).My VACL config was as follows:
Subnet to restrict is 10.100.15.0 (VLAN 15)
STEP 1: Created extended ACL to allow bootpc/bootps through DNS
ip access-list extended EACL_DNS
permit udp any eq bootps any
permit udp any eq bootpc any
STEP 2: Created standard ACLs to allow only relevant subnet, server VLANs & some IPs from other subnets for printers/scanners etc.
ip access-list standard SACL_VLAN_15
permit 10.100.15.0 0.0.0.255 (the subnet I'm restricting)
permit 10.100.50.0 0.0.0.255 (server VLANs)
permit 10.100.25.45 0.0.0.0 (printer in another VLAN which has to have access in VLAN 15)
STEP 3: Created VLAN access list
vlan access-map VACL_15 10
match ip address EACL_DNS
action forward
vlan access-map VACL_15 20
match ip address SACL_15
action forward
STEP 4: Applying VLAN Access list on VLAN 15 vlan filter VACL_15 vlan-list 15 Though the above works, below is noted:
1. I'm still able to PING 10.100.15.2 (the switch virtual interface) from outside the subnet, which I don't intend to do so. Howeve all cients in the subnet have no connectivity from outside the VLAN 15.
2. As mentioned its taking quiet some time to negotiate with the DNS server at system boot time.

I have a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller WCL2112 model. It's currently plugged into an HP Procurve switch on a trunk port. That HP switch is plugged into my Cisco stack on a trunk port. I can reach the WCL just fine through the LAN. But when I plug the WCL directly into the Cisco stack on a trunk port, I can't reach the WCL at all, unless I connect to it over wireless.
