Cisco Switching/Routing :: Catalyst 4948 Drops Truncated Packets?

Jan 4, 2012

I'm using a Catalyst 4948. It seems to drop all truncated packets. I don't know whether this is an expected behavior.I'm developing a program which processes packets in the following steps:

1) capture packets
2) if a packet is too long, truncate it to a certain length
3) insert a vlan tag (say 100) to each packet
4) send them to the switch
 
Mac address learning is disabled on the vlan 100, so the packets should be seen at all ports of the vlan. However, I only observed untruncated packets. Truncated packets seemed to be dropped by the switch.The summary of the source port is:
 
c4948-01#show interfaces gigabitEthernet 1/22 summary
......
Interface               IHQ   IQD  OHQ   OQD  RXBS RXPS  TXBS TXPS TRTL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
* GigabitEthernet1/22      0     0    0     0 4018000  7390  2000    3    0
 
The receiving speed was approximately equal to what I sent.The summary of another vlan 100 port is:
 
c4948-01#show interfaces gigabitEthernet 1/18 summary
......
Interface               IHQ   IQD  OHQ   OQD  RXBS RXPS  TXBS TXPS TRTL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
* GigabitEthernet1/18      0     0    0     0     0    0  3000    4    0
 
Almost no packets were output.I see a Cisco document says "ingress port drops corrupted packets" [URL] then my questions are:
 
1) Is this the root cause of dropping truncated packets?

2) What criteria does a switch use to check corrupted packets? My understanding is that truncated packets could have wrong L3 and L4 data, but they can't be detected at L2.

3) If switch drops mal-format packets, can we disable this feature?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Catalyst 2960 Drops Packets After Enabling QoS

Nov 4, 2011

why the QoS deployment causes ports on 2960 switches to drop packets although there is no bandwidth contension? (output bit/second of the interface)packet drops at threshold 1, queue 2 ( queue 3 in config)
 
We are using Catalyst 2960 switches and are experiencing issues with QoS. After the QoS, we experience a lot of packet drops and it make the network slow. It appears that the slow performance relates to the egress queuing of each port.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Etherchannel Suspended Between Catalyst 4948 And VSS 6506E

Dec 23, 2012

I describe an issue when i need to performe an L2 or L3 Etherchannel from a Catalyst 4948 IOS Enterprise and 2 xCatalyst 6506E bandled with VSS.
 
From the VSS Side when i plug cables i see on the physicals and Etherchannel that Physical and protocole layer are up. On the 4948 side, I see that physical layer is up and protocol and Etherchannel interfaces are down.
 
On the Etherchannel port summary i see that the port state is supended.
 
On the first attempt, i have test with a L3 etherchannel on both side using no switchport with two IP addresses one at each side on etherchannel interfaces.
 
The etherchannel are bundled with LACP mode active and on the second attempt with PAGP mode ON. 
 
The same configured on VSS 6506E work fine with Catalyst 3560E.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Switch Connecting Catalyst 4948 To 3750

Jan 5, 2011

I have got a new 48port Cisco catalyst 4948 switch, which I configured as a VTP client and connected to Cisco 3750 which is a VTP Server (this switch is on production network). I connected port g1/0/48 from 3750 to port g1/48 on 4948 through a straight cable and made both ports as trunk port (I also tried through cross cable). The problem is these two switches are not detecting. For testing I connected a PC directly to one of the port on 4948 (making that a switch port) still the LED on switch didn’t glow up. Is there any special command needs to be run on 4948 switches to activate its physical ports?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Catalyst 4948 Power Error Message

Dec 20, 2010

We are running a small network business and as funs of ciscos we own a some of the 4948s.We are facing an issue with couple of them as we get the below error message

C4K_CHASSIS-3-INSUFFICIENTPOWERSUPPLIESDETECTED:Insufficient power
supplies present for specified configuration

First thought to replace the power supply didn't actually work as we did that with no result.Power consumption is not an issue as well because all other 4948s work fine with 1 power supply (forgot to mention is 1 power supply in all of them).

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Sequence Error On Catalyst 4948-10GE Fiber Links

Apr 14, 2013

we have multiple Video production networks, with Video servers (AVID Unity ISIS) connected by 10GE fiber links to 4948-10GE switches. On almost every of these switches, I see more or less "Sequence-Err" interface errors. We do not currently have a known problem because this, and no other errors are seen. But I would like to understand the error, and therefore I would like to find out, what a sequence error means, what the cause is, and what the impact (to a frame) is?
 
By the way, it is well-known that the ISIS Video server does generate very excessive UDP data bursts. Maybe this matters? On Cisco doc I did not find an answer. The document "Troubleshooting Switch Port and Interface Problems" does unfortunately not refer to "sequence-err".
 
Here is an example output: 
WS-C4948-10GE#sh int t1/49
TenGigabitEthernet1/49 is up, line protocol is up (connected)

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Catalyst 3560 Switch Won't Forward Packets To Or From MAC Address

Aug 9, 2012

I have some Ethernet-connected cameras that all have the same Ethernet MAC address FF:FF:FF:0A:0A:0A. They were originally designed to directly connect to a Windows PC, but they can also connect through a simple unmanaged switch.A Catalyst 3560 switch won't forward packets to or from anything with that MAC address, at least not by default. Is there a way to convince the switch to do so?
 
It was my hope to replace the dedicated connections we have for these cameras with a separate VLAN for each camera, and switch them through our existing switch network. Given that all of the cameras use the same MAC address, putting them on the same network is out of the question, but different VLANs, where the only two devices on each VLAN were the camera and the PC that uses it, would be fine.
 
The switches run IOS 12.2(55) SE through SE3. I learned the camera MAC address from the PC's ARP table while the camera software runs; it turns out the cameras don't have a full IP stack either and don't even do ICMP.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Catalyst 4507r / Queue Usage - QOS - Total Output Drops?

Jan 14, 2013

We're having kind of a problem with our Catalyst 4507r switches. If we do a "show interface" command we're getting a lot of "Total output drops" on some of our interfaces. It seems to be most of the time on the same vlan.I was wondering if it has got something to do with QOS or queue selection As we don't have any QOS markings configured, is it possible that all traffic is using only one of the four tx queue's?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Trunking With 4948 And 6506

Apr 23, 2012

We purchased two new 4948 with two 10GE uplink ports and upgraded the devices to run IOS 15.  My 6506 is running Sup 720 with s77233-adventerprisek0_wan-mz.122-33.SXI9.  Currently we have 4948's connected to the same 6506's with no problems.  Today I tried to add the new switches with new IOS and it caused of  of my 6506 core switches to failover.  I can't explain why because it was close to start of business and couldn't do much troubleshooting.

Currently we have four 4948 (running IOS 12.2(14)  switches running Layer2 connecting dually to each of the two 6506 cores via 10GE fiber uplinks.   I tried to add two more to the scenario, again running layer2 and dual-honing them to each of te 6506 switches.  there are two 6506 core switches and they run HSRP and spanning tree is manually set to give priority to even vlans on one 6506 and odds on the other 6506.  Also the new switches I tried to add did had rootguard applied as well as the uplinks.
 
We have to get this working and have no test environment to work with.  We need to do this late this evening after close of business.
 
On another note, I have had problems upgrading some of my older 4948's to IOS 15.  I followed Cisco's suggestion and upgraded the EPROM first and then the IOS upgrade took on three of the switches that were ordered rather recently.  The four that were ordered in one batch will not take the upgrade even following Cisco's instruction and lots of other tricks.  Nothing works. Having problems with IOS 15, in general?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: SC/LC Cable Between 2960S Stack And 4948

I'm connecting the two devices above and I need an LC to SC fiber cable. It should be pretty simple but I've seen two different types of LC/SC cables - one is 8.3/125 and one is 62.5/125. I believe the 62.5 is an older cable type but when looking at the detail sheets for each of the SFPs I see that both of these support a 62.5 or 50 micron core size.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Setup Management VRF On 4948-10GE
