I have a 6509 switch with SSO Redundancy (STANDBY HOT) with IOS ver 12.2(17d)SXB11, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) (c6k222-jk9sv-mz.122-17d.SXB11.bin). I need to upgrade the IOS on this switch.I have 512MB Memory on the switch and 40144896 bytes free on Disk0.which IOS is the latest version to upgrade and also give me some hints for IOS upgrade on this switch?
View 7 Replieswe've had an issue with our network, we have 2 6509 connected with redundancy, which are connected with 2 x 4900 Switches, from which are connected to a ESX Chassis for visualization, the thing is that the ESX stopped working, and the 4900 switches, and the main core were suffering from overload, they hang on it very well, in order to stop the overload, one of the links to the ESX Chassis were disconnected from one of the 4900 switches. The CPU usage from the 4900 and the core(6509) went down below 40%, and then they started to migrate the virtual servers from the chassis to another 2 chassis that were added right after. They were actually working well, but suddenly the 6509 changed to the other supervisor after everything was OK. We were wondering what could have been the cause of this, maybe the virtual servers migrations, maybe the overload from the ESX ? We also had a few question, is there any need to reload the cores every few months as a planned task ? Because the cores have been up for more than 1 year. And also is there any kind of of tool to monitor the CPU status, or the status overall from the cores or the switches ?

One of our customer , where there 2 6509 switch , one is Core_sw1 and other is Core_sw2 , catering about 32 Vlan , and HSRP in running for all Vlans , till here no problem , now there internet Router which having one Internet link , which connected and configured on Core_sw1 in a way that one interface of Core_sw1 is given Public IP and there is vlan 85 which internet vlan and vlan 85 ip are natted with that public IP with one simple static route given toward internet router , this is how internet is working ok.
Now i have configured vlan 85 in hsrp as all other are , how can give redundancy to vlan 85 user , that if Core_sw1 get down , internet traffic can get out through Core_sw2.using same internet router with single internet link .i am not talking of ISP redundancy , but Vlan 85 in Core_sw1 goes down , other Core_sw2 will server internet.
Tonight we were performing an IOS upgrade on our 6509 VSS to 122-33.SXI6. Both 6509's have dual Supervisor cards installed. Initially we had problems with switch 2 slot 5 supervisor returning to rommon however switch 2 slot 6 supervisor loaded correctly. After manually setting the boot var in rommon, switch 2 slot 5 supervisor reloaded correctly.
After all supervisor's were online we noticed when looking at " show switch virtual redundancy" that sw 1 & 2 slot 6 supervisors were running the correct IOS version but sw 1 & 2 slot 5 were running different IOS versions, however when looking at the show version we are running on the upgraded IOS??? See output below...
Why the active supervisor has loaded the incorrect IOS the VSS is running on the upgraded IOS? I have verified the IOS was copied correctly to each supervisor bootdisk, I see no issues.

Will I be OK doing a eFSU Upgrade from s72033-ipservicesk9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI2a to s72033-ipservicesk9_wan-mz.122-33.SXJ1?
I only have a single supervisor in each chassis.
Should I be ok with just following the eFSU upgrade instructions in the below?

upgrade the IOS with VSS configured switches.
We are trying to upgrade the IOS on one of our 6509 switches. We have two 720 10GE supervisors running in SSO. Our procedure is reload the standby supervisor with the new IOS. We understand that you can only use one console connection when in RPR mode so we rely on the active supervisor giving us information that the standby unit is up and running.
The problem we have is that when we do a "show Module" on the switch the online diagnostics for the standby supervisor comes back us unknown. [code] We believe the active supervisor can see the standby supervisor because when we save the configuration we get a message saying that the config is sync'd with the standby router. We have a TAC case raised to investigate. We are upgrading from 12.2(33) SXI1 to 12.2(33) SXJ3
I am planning on upgrading my 6509s to use VSS within the next few weeks. I have checked all of the hardware and software prerequisites, and we are good to go from that perspective.I do have more of a procedural question- my switches are already configured and in production, VLANs, HSRP (3 IP addresses per VLAN- 1 per switch plus virtual IP), etc. Does the VSS upgrade take all of this into account and rewrite the configuration correctly, or should I plan on redoing the entire config for the switches after the upgrade?
View 6 Replies View RelatedWe are planning to upgrade the IOS on our two 6509E supervisors in the next few weeks. We currently run IOS 12.2(33) SXI1 and are upgrading to 12.2(33) SXJ3. At the moment the two supervisors are in SSO mode and after reading many articles it says that when the images are different on the two supervisors they are in RPR mode. When you then reload the active supervisor it will reboot all the line cards.
1. Is above correct? Will my line card reload?
2. We also have a FWSM installed, When/If the line cards are rebooted does the FWSM also reboot?
I am going to upgarde SUP2 to SUP32 on my 6509 by next week. right now I have 2 SUPs on the 6509 in redundant mode.
View 5 Replies View Relatedwe have some pairs of 6509-VSS, which partially have old (no more officially supported) 6509-Chassis.All linecards in the VSS are the same (Sup 720-10GE-3C, 67XX).
We now bought some new 6509-E-Chassis and want to change the old chassis by the new ones in a ISSU manner, that means:
1. putting the partner, which chassis changes, in redundancy mode, switch it off, exchange chassis (old "Catalyst 6509", new "Catalyst 6509-E")
2. inserting the line-cards exactly in the same slots and connecting all cables
3. switch on the new chassis, witing to come up in VSS
I'm not sure of having to set the switch number for VSS (is that in the Sup?; configuration? or part of the chassis-memory?)
I've looked up cisco for some hints, but don't found anything.

I support an active VSS cluster using 2 x 6509E chassis with single Supervisor 3C modules in each chassis. I want to replace these with Supervisor 2T modules. All my service modules and line cards are supported with the Sup2Ts (I will also be implementing 6908 modules). Is there a document on the Cisco site for this? I haven't found one though I can find plenty that describe how to do a software upgrade.
(Note, I have a 3rd (non VSS) 6509E chassis that is also part of this core network and that will maintain VTP/V LAN's etc).
I have 2 6509 chasis with one SUP720-3B in each and current IOS is s72033-ipservicesk9_wan-mz.122-18.SXF4 and 2 FWSM with version is 3.3.1 I need to upgrade FWSM system software to 4.1, after checking FWSM 4.1 release notes, I thought of upgrading IOS to latest version to 12.2(33)SXJ.I got new 2 CF of 512MB and downloaded the new IOS on them and need to upgrade 6509 IOS first to meet the requirement for FWSM upgrade.

I have the following devices :
-1 VM Host
-2 Layer 3 switches
I would like to provide full redundancy for all vlans being used by VM Guests on the VM Host as well as the management vlan being used by the VM Host.I have created two LACP etherchannel connections on the VM Host. Each etherchannel from the host consists of 4 ports spanning a single NIC. One etherchannel connection goes to a trunked etherchannel connection on switch 1, and the other etherchannel connection goes to a trunked etherchannel connection on switch 2.Switch 1 and switch 2 have an etherchannel connection between them that carries all of the vlans in the topology.Vlan 2 is the managment vlan. Vlans 3, 4, and 5 are vlans that VM guest systems will be using for normal data traffic.
I intend to use switch 1 as the VRRP active router and spanning-tree root bridge for vlans 2 and 3.I intend to use switch 2 as the VRRP active router and spanning-tree root bridge for vlans 4 and 5.The spanning-tree configuration is using multiple spanning-tree with two instances. Instance 1 has vlans 2 and 3 associated and Instance 2 has vlans 4 and 5 associated. I would like to have this topology be fault tolerant to the point where if one of the etherchannel links between the host and one of the switches goes down, (for example, if switch 1 was powered off) traffic will be automatically redirected through the other functional link. I believe that my VRRP configuration would allow for a fairly quick failover of layer 3 services, but I am not certain that my design will be functional at a layer 2 level.
What I am uncertain about is how spanning-tree will converge. I am assuming that the virtual switch on the VM host will not be forwarding any BPDUs being sent by either switch. Would either of the links connecting to the host be considered a redundant link by either switch?Would the link between switch 2 and the host be inactive for all vlans in MST instance 1 during normal operation?Conversely, would the link between switch 1 and the host be inactive for all vlans in MST instance 2 during normal operation? Would all links remain active for ALL vlans? Would this mean that some traffic may travel through switch 2 to reach switch 1 instead of going directly to switch 1?
Currently we have two inter-chassis FWSM redundancy. I would like to configure them for intra-chassis.
Both FWSM's are in slot 7 of 6509 switches and i want to take secondary out from one of the 6509 switch and insert in the slot 3 of primary switch.
I addedd the following commands in my primary switch.
There were commands already present for FWSM in primary switch
firewall multiple-vlan-interfaces
firewall module 7 vlan-group 1
firewall vlan-group 1 2,3,777
to create intra-chassis redundancy i addedd the following command also there.
firewall module 3 vlan-group 1
after adding that, my firewalls worked fine but there was a issue with site loading. People from outside were able to access inside but from inside, we were not able to go outside.
do we need to clear arp from both FWSM's ? is there any other precautionary step, which we need to follow while working on it.
have main office of 70 people.Also I have 2 redundant ISP:One give me 20 mbit/s Other only 2 mbit/s and it is my backup ISP.
I have some resources in data center and I need a IPSec VPN to it and some other location. I suppose there will be up to 3-5 IPSec tunnels. I choose Cisco ISR 881-SEC-K9 with one wan port and 4 LAN switch. But know I’m looking for Cisco 891-K9. There is no security bundle for it. But in cisco.com this router is marked Cisco 891-K9 Security router. Does it support security features like VPNs, ZBF, IOS Firewall, NBAR and IP SLA for ISP redundancy? Also if my boss will choose chipper Cisco router 881-SEC-K9. Will I be able to organize 2 ISP redundancy on 4 LAN switch port inside VLAN interfaces because there is only one WAN port?
we are in the planning phase for a network upgrade. We have two C2960 Switches connected via one (L2) Etherchannel (4x1 Gbit/s) which works very well. In the next phase we would like to upgrade our router to an 2911 series which has 3 gb interfaces. and indeed we would like to create an etherchannel as well. our plan is to use 2 of the 2911 to connect to the first 2960 switch and the one left to the other 2960. i think we will achieve some redundancy with this config.
