I am trying to configure a 6509 as the passive receiver from a Dell Force10 10Ge switch with 2 sfp to 2 gig ports on our 6509 switch, I see LACP is up on both sides but cannot pass traffic, I have only 2 vlans that will carry across the aggregate link from our vmware boxes, this is just a temp until I get a 10ge in our 6509 chassis.
View 2 Replieswe have Supervisor Engine 720 10GE (VS-S720-10G) in slot 5 on Catalyst 6509-E. Slot 6 is free. We need to replace VS-S720-10G. Is it possible the following scenario
1. we will insert new VS-S720-10G into the slot 6
2. then we will remove the faulty VS-S720-10G from the slot 5
Will everything work without interuptions. Is any document where I can find step-by-step procedure how to replace VS-S720-10G ?
We have two 6509 switches with one WS-X6704-10GE module in each of them. There is an optical cable between the two switches plugged in WS-X6704-10GE module on both sides. When you shut down the port on one side the other port still stays as up and you need phisycally to unplug the cable to have it down. The same behaviour is seen no matter on which of the two switches you shut down the port, the opposite one always stays as up and only removal of the cable makes it go down.
The ports are configured quite simply:
interface TenGigabitEthernet1/1
switchport
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1-10
no ip address
udld port
The IOS version is 12.2(18)SXF8
I have been assigned the task of trunking VLAN between a Nexus 3048 and a Force10 S4810. This would seem easy enough but I am really having a bear of a time getting it to work. I have devices configured on VLAN 602 on both sides but they just are not talking.

I've got LACP-enabled port-channels between a Cisco 3750 stack and a few different switches (some Cisco 3750s and some Juniper EX2200s). The Ciscos are all sending slow LACP updates, the Junipers are sending fast LACP updates (but the Cisco they connect with is responding with slow LACP updates).
I have a couple of questions:
1) what are the pros and cons of slow vs fast updates? my research has led me to the conclusion that fast updates are better for network resiliency as long as you have plenty of bandwidth overhead (which I do at the moment). is there anything to add to this conclusion?
2) is there any way to configure the Cisco 3750s for fast updates?
We're trying to configure our Cisco 4507 (Supervisor Engine IV) to allow a new Dell server with a pair of Broadcom 5708 GigE NIC's to aggregate its NIC's to give us a 2gbps link to the switch.
So far we seem to have got the team and LACP up and enabled, but the adaptor that the Broadcom Admin Util creates for the team is only showing a 1gbps connection where I would have expected it to show as 2gbps.
The individual NICs show as connected at 1gbps. We're not Cisco experts so are struggling on how to get the 2 NICs to aggregate.
On the server side we've done nothing other than create a team using 802.3ad LINk Aggregation using LACP.
This is what I think the relevent output from "sho conf" is, more available if needed.

I have two N5K (5020) switches with NX-OS - 5.0(3)N2(1). These two switches form VPC domain: peer-link = 2*10Gb ports (1/17-18) and peer-keepalive link over managements ports.Also I have two HP servers with two 10 Gb ports on each server.Each server conected by one link to each N5K switch (1/9-10). N5K downlinks configured as access ports with LACP Active mode.There is only one VLAN (1).When "no shut" command entered on N5K access ports - ports going in "not connected" status, begin flap and then going in "linkFlapErrDisabled" state.In attach - "sh run" from N5K.

How to confirm if a 10Ge interface can be set down to 1Ge if required ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedWe had to transport one of our 4948 10 GE to another Data Centre and when we got it there and tried to power up its System Status LED was red and we cannot even get console to the device.
We can try to see if the switch is completely dead and needs replacing or is there something we can do to get it back up and running again?
I am in front of a choice what to select to deploy 10Ge in my datacenter to get four 6504e and two 3750x units connected to each other.All devices are located in 3-7 meters away from each other.The choice is whether to go for a multimode fiber and 10GBASE-SR X2 Modules OR cat7 UTP and 10GBASE-T X2 pluggable transceiver.Money wise it doesn't matter.Fiber looks less attractive since it's fragile and a bit harder to put in underfloor area.Cat7 is more attractive but there are 2 points:
1) I couldn't find ANY single photo of a 10GBASE-T (a module with a single RJ45 port). How does it look? Does it come with a cable or...??
2) How stable is it to run 10Ge over UTP?
I have a two Cisco 4510R each with two sup V-10GE redundant. The code on these sup modules are 12.2(31r)SG3. I need some assistance in getting this setup worked out. I have all four of the 10GE populated with appropriate optics. I setup a link from one 4510R to the other using these interfaces. From the documentation I found I had to use Tengi1/1 and Tengi2/2 as the redundant pair. I plugged the up link into these ports. The Tengi1/1 (active supervisor) links up and works fine. But when I look at the ports port Tengi2/2 it isn't showing link or active. Now port 2/1 (nothing plugged into it) is showing as active.
Now is the redundancy supposed to be 1/1 and 2/1? If so, the switch is in production, when I move the connection over from 2/2 to 2/1 will it cause a outage? The reason for this is I now have a system with a 10G port and would like to utilize one of the other 10G ports. Is that possible? Or does it have to be a lag/redundant up link to work (say to another switch)?
We have a scenario with 2 chassis, both with 2 supervisor Engine 2T, we try to make a configuration of VSS with the chassis and would link to know if is possible have 2 supervisor on chassis one and 2 supervisors on chassis 2 with VSS?

If after having an active peer-link port-channel between a couple of nexus 7010 I change lacp system-priority on both boxes and then I add a new member interface on that port-channel , that interface will be aligned with new lacp system-priority value but the old member do not and so I have to reload those modules which include old member interface.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Cisco 3750G-48PS Running IOS 12.2(40) and was wondering how many physical ports are supported in an LACP Configuration. Is it 4 or 8 ports in a single switch.
If I have a dual 3750 stacked together, and I want to configure (8) port LACP, Can I take (4) ports from each switch in the stack and LACP together.
I have a Cisco 6513 switches connected to HP VC Flex 10 Module. The (2) 10Gb ports on a Cisco Switch connected to VC Flex-10 in LACP mode.
I need to move those (2) 10Gb ports on Cisco Switch 10Gb Module to a different 10Gb module on a same Switch without bringing the ports down since it is a live environment.
What I would do is to configure a same port channel ID on a new 10Gb module and then move port one by one. unplug one port and connect to the new port on a module. While I will be unplugging the first port the other active port will keep sending traffic and as soon as I plug in on another port, both ports will be active.
What does RP drops entail? We are experiencing 0.23 % drops on an vlan int on one of our 6500. This interface is an L3 to a server-subnet. Doing a sh int vlan 238 switching shows 30935411 RP (Route Processing) drops.It was a bit unclear to me in the thread "Input queue drops on 6500 vlan interface" if RP drops was through the router, or to the router(mgmnt)?I can do a netdr to see what traffic goes to it. It should not generate CPU load, but I think I will wait until after hours before I try that command.
- do NETDR:
-- debug netdr cap rx vlan 238
-- show netdr cap
We have two 3750 stackable switches in core layer.

I am getting conflicting info about this, and need to get confirmations.Is the older 6513 (non E) model compatible with WS-X6407-10GE blade?The switch we're getting this for have WS-SUP720-3B, 6000W power supply, and WS-C6K-13SLT-FAN2.From what I read they are compatible if entered in slot 9-13, but I also heard that 10GE modules are not compatible with the non E chassis.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI will be adding two WS-X6716-10GE cards in a CAT6509 soon, and will create 4 port channels with 3 ports each in the new cards, but I do have a few questions:
1 - I will be adding cards in slots 3 and 8, can I mix and bundle ports from both modules into a single etherchannel, I mean, like two ports in slot 3 and 1 port in slot 8 to create a PortChannel ?! Or can I only bundle ports in the same card/port-group in a Etherchannel using this WS-X6716-10GE card?
2 - Do I need to issue the hw-module slot x oversubscription port-group y command in order to be able to bundle ports in the Etherchannel I need to create ?! I will be using 4 Etherchannels (LACP) with 3 ports each, running in trunk mode. So I guess, I will be using something like:

switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
