Something seemingly so simple is not working. A router and a Nexus are not seeing each other via CDP. I have a 2921 router connected to a Nexus 7000. Everything works fine, except for some mysterious reason CDP does not establish. Yes, it is enabled on both devices and not disabled on the relevant interfaces. The Nexus says this over and over again when debugging cdp errors:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a pair of Cisco Nexus 7000 switches in a VPC configuration with several Nexus 5000 switches attached. The config has about 50 or so VLANs each with a /24 subnet address assigned. These SVIs include HSRP etc and are all a member of the same VRF. Unfortunatelu I am not able to advise/confirm if the issue is on the last vlans and svis configured as I am not aware of the history/chronology of the configurations applied.
The issue I have is that one of the Nexus 7000s seems to take some time providing output or even freezing until I issue a Ctrl+C when issuing simple commands such as "show ip arp vlan 123 vrf abc123" or "show mac address-table dynamic vlan 1234". This seems to affect only some but not all vlans or all SVIs in the VRF. This behaviour is the same whether accessing the cli via a console, SSH and/or telnet session.A check of CPU and mem reveals little utilisation to cause any concern and will begin a bug toolkit hunt for version 6.01.
I am configuring NTP on a new Cisco Nexus 7000 running version 6.1(2). NTP is working properly between the access switches and Nexus, however when configuring Authentication, NTP is not working anymore.

On a 7K (5.0(2)), I have a situation where the FIB and RIB are out of sync. I'm not sure it's causing a problem, but it's been implicated in some weird packet loss issues. It seems like it could cause network issues if you had two routes in the RIB, only one in the FIB, and then you lost the single path in the FIB. How the RIB/FIB gets out of sequence, how to proactively know about it (nothing in the logs here), and whether or not this is a big deal or a red herring?
Here's sample output that illustrates the RIB and FIB being out of sequence.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have two data centres connected via a L2 DWDM, my manager wants to look into using OTV to get rid of the layer 2 broadcasting issues.
Problem is the DWDM is 1000BaseSX, which is only supported on the N7K-F132XP-15. (and the N7K-M148GS-11 but that doesn't support FCOE, so many bloody caveats). From what I can gather OTV is not supported on the N7K-F132XP-15.
Is it possible to terminate the DWDM on the F1 card & loop another port from the F1 to a port on the N7K-M148GT-11 & run OTV on the M1????
Either using VDCs or just an isolated VLAN on the F1. Is there any better way to do this? Hardware has not yet been purchased.
I am seeing an issue that after deleting/recreating one of the VDC in Nexus 7K, VLAN is not been able to be configured within the VDC although it is not actually a reserved VLAN. Could it be anything missing in the license installation? the version of the image is NX-OS 6.1.2

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a pair of Nexus 7K's running 5.1(3). I have a handful of edge devices that I need to mark ingress traffic, and need to mark both DSCP and CoS. Right now, I have a working config that marks DSCP appropriately.While that works dor DSCP, the MQC will not allow me to mark both DSCP and COS in the same class, and unlike IOS, it appears that Nexus does not have a default DSCP-to-COS mapping. My understanding is this can be solved using table maps, but I don't see how that can solve my problem in this specific scenario (it appears I can do marking or table-map mutation, but not both?). How I can accomplish both?

View 3 Replies View Relatedregarding QOS on Nexus 7000. Our Nexus 7000's form a collapsed distribution/core layer, our access layer switches are are a mixture of Cisco 3750 & Cisco 4507. 3750 switches will connect to Nexus switches via 1Gb uplink, 4507 switches will connect via 10Gb uplinks. Each Nexus will be connected via 20Gb port channel, all servers connect to the Nexus switches via 1Gb links. We're implementing a new telephone system soon which will be using VOIP so I need to configure the switches to perform QOS. The IP phones will mark the RTP traffic with DSCP value EF and call signaling traffic CS3. I'm fine configuring qos on the access layer switches, its just the Nexus switches which I'm not sure about.
Do I actually need to configure any QOS parameters on the Nexus switches so they will prioritise the VOIP traffic. If my understanding the Nexus switches will trust the DSCP values and assign the traffic to the relevent queues?
Just for information VOIP is the only traffic I will be marking QOS values
On Nexus 7000s I want to limit bandwidth of particular IP. I can do this using proper configuratio of IP ACL, policy map and class map. But what if I dont have information on interface? Can I apply bandwidth control for particular IP without knowing the interface?

I've learned recently that the Nexus 7000 only allows the configuration of a maximum of 2 Monitor sessions for spanning traffic. I only have one monitor session left and I need to do the following. 2 Core Nexus 7000 boxes with 2 different traffic probes/sniffers to each nexus( eg Sniffer 1 connects to Switch A on interface eth 1 and to Switch B on eth 1 ; Sniffer 2 connects to Switch A on eth 2 and to Switch B on eth 2.) My plan was to setup a standard session with multiple sources and destinations then on the interfaces connecting to the sniffers run a trunk and do 'sw trunk allowed xxxxx' and filter what I need to go to each sniffer box. However I've recently found out that some of my source traffic is coming from Port-Channel interfaces. Is there a way I can get around this and still do the filtering within only 1 monitor session ?

I have a Nexus 7000 pair with Etherchannels connecting to various access switches. 2960's and 3750's.The access switches channel 2 ports together. LACP active mode. One link goes to one Nexus and one to the other. Those connections are a portchannel with vpc configured.Every 30 seconds on every interface connecting to one Nexus I see a FCS error. The errors increment at the same time every 30 seconds. Only on one port. If I shutdown that link and keep the channel up on the other link the errors move. No shut the interface and they move back.This must surely be some Nexus generated packet that the access switch does not recognize/ what is likely to be getting sent at 30 sec intervals to all Channel members on one link ?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an issue with a Cisco 4900M switch with a WS-X4908-10G-RJ45 half card. The link connection between a 10Gbase-T server nic and the switch does not establish, i believe it is an auto negotiation problem. The link fluctuates constantly between connected and disconnected when set to auto negotiate. When the 10G half card port groups are configured for 1G connections it does the same. If i hard code the server nic to 1G the link remains up when the port group is at 1G. If i hard code the server nic to 10G the link stay down, i don't think the port speed and duplex can be hard coded on the switch end. I have tried updating the drivers on the server as well as diagnostic tests on the nic, which passed. The 4900M IOS code is version 15.0.2-SG2. If i plug a laptop into the 1G configured port the switch and the laptop negotiate at 1G. Also, i believe, if the 10G server nic is plugged into another 1G only switch the link auto negotiates to 1G as normal. The server nic is an INTEL Server Adapter AT 10G, which became end of life in 2009. I believe the half card came out in 2010.
