View 5 Replies View RelatedI would like to check if it may be possible to hot-upgrade/swap the 4506E power supplies? Based on the configuration guide; I have summarized the steps as follows:
1. Switch has 2 existing power supplies to be upgraded
2. Remove right side/bay 2 power supply and install new power supply
3. At this point; the new power supply will be in err-disabled due to different power supplies on the switch
4. Remove the left side power supply and install new power supply
For item 4; during the removal of the old power supply in bay 1/left side and installation of the new power supply; I am wondering if the switch would lose power even though the new power supply is installed in bay 2?
I have two cisco 4506-E series switches ..
We are planning to go for HSRP redundancy for 32 VLANs. Means In a Cisco 4506-E switch , we will configure 32 vlans and among them 16 vlans will be primary and 16VLANs will be standby ans it is viceversa in another core-switch
My querie is How many standby groups can we create in Cisco 4506-E switch,
Is there any limitation..
If there is any limitation , can we go ahead with VRRP,GLBP? Are there any limitation in VRRP/GLBP? Is there any design related issue can we face if we use same group number to all VLANs?
Product details :
Model : Cisco 4506-E
Sup Model : WS-X45-SUP6L-E
IOS : S45EIPBK9-12254SG
I have one 4506E switch working in Lan setup as a core switch with WS-X45-SUP6L-E running ipbase IOS 12.2(54)SG1. Each time after reload the switch we found that the clock is getting reset ( time is getting changed ) where as day, date & year is unchanged.

View 9 Replies View Relatedwe have 2 catalyst 4507 Switches (Catalyst 4507-R running 15.1.2.release) configured in VRRP and vlans are distributed across both the switches.For few vlans core1 is master and for remaining vlans core2 is master.Both cores showing different CPU utilization.when we did our troubleshooting,we realized that the server vlan on core1 (Core1 is master for this vlan) is creating high utilization.when we switched this server vlan to core2 the core1 utilization came down and core2 utilization increased.we identified that server vlan is culprit in this issue. i would like to know weather any method is available in core switch wherein i can check which server in this vlan is contributing for this utilization.(To identify the server which contribute this utilization,we can actually shut 1 server each at time to see weather utilization is going down.with this kind of testing ideally we should be able to identify the server but this will disturb the server environment which we don't want in live environment)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been looking into this for a while and I can't seem to figure out why my 2nd vlan is not able to connect properly to the net.
My switch has 12 ports where my devices connects directly, they are all on Vlan 1 and they all work perfectly. on Port 12 I have a dlink router that is connected to a cable modem. the dlink router has an Ip address of 192.168.0.20
I created a second vlan (vlan2) and enabled dhcp relay on it. then I assigned port 9 on the switch to (vlan2)my laptop which is connected to port 9 seems to get an ip address fine and able to ping only some devices on my network (vlan1) and is not able to go out to the internet. I think it has to do with the routes. [code]

I would like to be able to use Vlan 10 192.168.155.1 for SSH remote management.
i try to implement layer 2 qos in 2960. when i complete to configure the switch, i want to test the qos.PC1 conect to switch port 1,PC2 conect to switch port 2 . PC1 is source teminal. i use skydata.exe and FTP for the test.
when use the skydata ,the PC2 speed can reach 10mbps.when use the FTP , the PC2 only can reach 1.2mbps. why?
I can use Putty to SSH into my new switch (Directly connected to my laptop with ethernet cable), but I cant log into my switch.

It doesnt like my password, but I have only set 1 password (king) on this switch. I've configured 3 other switches with SSH and had no problem. Been trouble shooting for awhile and It'd be great if I could have a 2nd set of eyes take a peek, Also, my running config is attached.
I have a cisco 1841 running on a 10Mbps Metro-E connection. I recently signed an agreement for a 100Mbps Metro-E. I am wondering if I will need to purchase a new router to support this new connection or will my 1841 be able to handle the traffic.

I powered it on and went through the process of clearing out the configurations, and I got to a point where one of the commands to clear out the config asked me to install jumpers for "ROM" and "ERASE". There is a third jumper labeled "NO BOOT". They are numbered J6, J7, & J8 respectivelyI found the jumpers inside and put the jumpers on them and ran the command expecting it to remove any old configurations I had on the switch and bring it back to factory state, but I was wrong.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using a catalyst 2970 switch for 2 vlans. Corporate data and a separate VLAN for backups. What I want to do is create an LACP etherchannel to the switch and also trunk these ports so the server is part of both VLANS.Due to fact that some of these servers are on totally separated networks, they really shouldn't be able to talk to the backup server. Creating the VLAN for backups works to achieve this. I plan to create inbound ACLs on each port to allow only the ports and IPs for the backup network and allow everything we need for corporate data.I read somewhere that you can't have ACLs on an etherchannel and I just want to get it all straightened out. I notice I can't add an access group to the port-channel itself but I can on the port- channel member ports. Is this all I need to do or does this not work?

This switch runs CatOS, not IOS.When power is applied to the switch, the fans turn on as normal, but no LEDs are lit on the front. There are green LEDs lit next to the jumpers inside, but that is all. I am not able to get any response from it on the console at all anymore.The LEDs that are lit green inside are labeled "CR5" and CR6".
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have inhereted a network in a school that is using a Cisco Catalyst 500 series switch. Previously, it appears that this switch was never managed (just plugged in and using it's default configuration). I am trying to change that and be able to control the switch using the Network Assistant or just the web-based device manager. I understand that you cannot perform the initial configuration with anything past Windows XP, because the broadcast flag setting past XP causes an issue where the IP address of the management computer is assigned but not the default gateway. Despite this, I am still unable to connect to the switch for management purposes. Here is a list of the steps I have taken, all of which have been unsuccessful:
1) I tried using a computer running Windows XP. The same issue occurred. It was assigned an IP address from the switch but did not get a default gateway. It was unable to access what should have been the default IP of the switch; 169.254.0.1
2) I tried it in Windows Vista by editing the registry to turn broadcasting off. It still did not work.
3) I tried it in Windows 7. Still no luck.
4) In all 3 operating systems, I tried using the "Advanced" setting in the TCP/IP configuration to add a default gateway of 169.254.0.1 to no avail.

is it possible to run a Catalyst 4500 as pure Layer 2 Switch, i.e. disabling "ip routing", but still managing the switch via Fa1, i.e. the defautl mgmtVrf vrf ?I tried the following:
!
no ip routing
!
interface FastEthernet1
ip vrf forwarding mgmtVrf
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
!
ip route vrf mgmtVrf 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254
ip default-gateway 192.168.1.254
I was not able to reach the Switch even from the same subnet. Only after enabling ip routing I could manage the Switch. I haven't found any command to set ip default-gateway for a vrf. Any workaround to keep routing disabled, but still manageable via VRF?
Currently we have cisco 4503 switch in one of our location without redundancy which servers below,
300 user (desktop & ip phones)
5 vlans
15 access switches are connected
one L3 connectivity.
Actually i want to understand is it really necessary to have 4503 or we can go for 4900 series as we are planning to have redundancy in distribution segment.
Which is the best L3 switch in the above scenario and how to measure the overall performance of the current 4503 switch...
Would like to know if the Cisco Catalyst 4900M Switches are stackable?

I started having connectivity issues between my core 4506E (Sup7E) and Cisco 2960S. There were input and CRC errors on Te int (SFP 10Gb - LRM) on 2960S, which cause the interface to reset and drop connections. While troubleshooting this issue, I have replaced patch cords and also had the tech checking the fiber. He said that there was some residue on one of the connectors, so the light levels fluctuated in 1300nm, but worked fine in 850. Well LRMs are using 1300, so he re-polished the tips, which worked to stabilize the light levels. After all that, I was still receiving the input/CRC errors, but the connection was NOT dropping. As my last resort I swapped the SFPs between the core and 2960, thinking I should start having issues on the core end. Well, here's what happened: I stopped receiving input/CRC errors on 2960 (also no errors on the core), but 2960s started generating Rx power high alarms: [code]
