Cisco Switching/Routing :: Connecting 3750 Stackable Switches
Nov 13, 2011
If I have two switches in a stack can both stack able switches be connected to a core switch through gbics or just only one switch can be connected to the core and the other switch connects to the other stack able switch through an Ethernet port which uses as a gateway to the core switch?

If I have two stackable switches one switch uplinks to one 6509 core switch and the other connection uplinks to another 6509 core switch, and also the other stackable switch does not connect to the core switches. Because I am using hsrp and also we are not using vss then one uplink to the core is not in used only ones is so then how does creating an etherchannel between does two uplinks to both core switches benefit me in anyway such as more bandwith and using both uplinks at the same time or I'm I wrong?

If I have two stackable switches were only one stackable switch has two uplinks one uplink goes to one core 6509 switch and the other uplink goes to the other 6509 core switch can a Layer 3 etherchannel be used if each uplink go to a different core switch, by the way hsrp is running between both switches and also can you give an example how data will be routed from the stackable switch through the ethernetchannel to one of the core switch accross the WAN to another core switch?

If I have two stackable switches one that connects to the 6509 core switch and the other switch does not, do I have to uplink the switch to the other switch so that switch has route to the core switch or because the switches are daisy chain there is not need to cable one switch to to the other switch connected to core switch?

I want to be sure for this before ordering: is the Enterprise-class stackable switches "WS-C3750X-48T-S" model can be stackable with "WS-C3750G-48TS" model.

I have a small network using a 24 port 3750 switch. I need to add five computers in another room and only have one Cat 6 cable running there and no room left on the 3750. I got a 3650 to put in the new room with the new computers. The problem is, whenever I plug the new switch into the 3750, it shuts down the port and gives me an err-disable. I can do a shut/no shut and re-enable the port. I searched the web and read about trunking and clusters. I'm not sure which, if either, is appropriate. I see various documentation that shows you can put one switch behind the other. But nothing tells me the configuration which will allow it.

Server with Two NIC teamed using HP teaming tool. NIC#1 connects to SW1 and NIC#2 connects to SW2
SW1--------------------NIC_1 (SERVER) NIC_2--------------------SW2
Will the config be access-port on Sw1 & Sw2 connecting to Server.Sw1 & Sw2 are connecting to 3750 as trunk ports

I'm building a wired closet to aggregate user's connections, Im planning to have 5x 3750X stacked switches and there is a need to run EIGRP, I'm thinking to order one switch with IP service image while the rest will run IP base image, is it workable scenario and what are the drawbacks of such combination of images ?

can you stack a 3750 switch over fiber.....the answer is no, but the virtual switching supervisor 720-10G for the 6500 can create one virtual switch using two 6500s...
how can we get cisco to come up with a way for access switches to be stacked over fiber similar to above supervisor? i know of few of my site that would benefit from this...maybe they can come up with a vss appliance, similar to a media converter, to convert stackwise over fiber...then of course, you would need the same appliance on the other end....

I am running 4.2.1a and my topology is one subnet only so using one-arm thereby management svi, VIP, ft interface, and host server are all on same subnet.
With above scenario, is the ACE 4710 HA support on 3750 stack?
On 3750, I use port channel 10. Likwise channel 10 is config on both ACE and HA WILL NOT WORK
On 3750, I then use port channel 10 and 11. Thereby, channel 10 is on primary ACE and channel 11 on standby ACE and it works but with following observation:
- standby ACE is configured channel 11 and it syncs up but replace 11 with channel 10 then shutdown 10 and all interface has "channel-mode 11" removed. I have to put "channel-mode 10" on each interface instead of 11 and then unshut the "inter port-channel 10" - then add "ft-port vlan xxx" to get it to work
- standby ACE has "switch/admin" default hostname but I expect after sync that it would have the hostname I defined "ACE-COLO/Admin" instead
Looking for other discrepency as this is my lab environment before I implement into production as to decrease downtime.

Am looking into using stacking and NIC teaming to create redunancy for user access to servers. What I am thinking is getting 2 SG500-28 switchs and configuring them in a stack that appears as one logical switch. Now on the servers I would configure 2 NICs to be a team so they appear as 1 logical interface, perferably in an active/active configuration using LACP. In this NIC team take 1 team member to switch A and the other to switch B, so each team member is on seperate switches.
Givent the scenario:
1) Will that work with the 500 series switchs? Reason for the switches is their price point is perfect for my client.
2) Besides the stack link will there also need to be a LAG between the switches or does the stack link do data traffic also?

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?

I'm introducing a Cisco 3750 switch into a Avaya environment for testing/lab. I'm concerned about any STP, VTP problems I might create as I'm going to give a address on the Management VLAN and connect it to a trunk port on a ERS5520 Avaya. I've set the switch to transparent mode and the VTP revision is set to 0. I've checked the STP priority but it doesn't give any - there is no output because it is not connected. I wouldn't be so concerned but, I'm not sure if any config has been on it before.Also, is there any way for me to see the STP prioroity without having it connected?

I am using a 3750 as a default gateway for multiple Vlans on a few 2960 switches. The trunk lines are configured and working and I have assigned ip addresses to each of the Vlan interfaces on the 3750. My issue is that I can only ping the ip address on the Vlan interface of the 3750 if I have a working computer plugged directly into the Vlan on the 3750. I only have 3 vlans on the 3750 that have hosts directly connected (vlans 2, 10 and 40) the other vlans ( 20 and 70) don't have any clients plugged into them on the 3750 but the hosts reside on 2 different 2960s that connect via trunk ports. How do I keep the vlan interface on the 3750 switch pingable when I don't have hosts directly connected in that vlan on the 3750? (yes, I have enabled ip routing on the 3750)

I have a simple design with 3750. I configured a route-map which define a next hop. I defined this route-map on a policy on a vlan interface.When I test some ping and a debug ip policy and it seems that my policy never match.Is there any mechanism that prevent the switch from using PBR? I think of CEF .

Switch A connects to Swich B and C using port channel. I am going to bring down one link on each.
switch A is server farm , switch B and C are core 01 and 02 . and all are 3750 switches.
1. what will be the impact on the network in terms of spanning tree recalculation
2. what duration are we talking about until the spanning tree convergence happens?
3.I plan to shut down the link from CLI to bring down the links

I have a small campus network using 3750 stackable switches and a 3725 router (see diagram below). Currently the 3725 router is handling inter-vlan routing for the campus and it looks like it's not able to handle the amount of traffic we're pushing. The router CPU sometimes hits above 90% due traffic load. What I would like to accomplish is move L3 process over to the 3750 MDF stack and the IDF1 stack. I am thinking creating SVI's on both MDF stack and IDF1 stack, run HSRP between the two stacks and may be do load balance traffic between the two stack as well.

Looking for feedback from other organizations that have large 3750 stacks. I've got one stack of (8) 3750's composed of (6) 3750G's and (2) plain 3750's. This particular stack is usually unresponsive to SNMP queries and often fails to write config when we make changes. After a couple tries it will finally go. Part of my probably here is likely the plain 3750's that always boot faster and come up as the master. I should manually set the master to one of the G's. What I'm wondering is who else has 7-9 3750's stacked and are they performing well for SNMP, telnet, etc? I've got another newer stack of 7 3750E's that I need to add one more switch to. Need to decide if I want extended downtime to break the stack up or just add the 3750X to make member 8 and hope it performs well. I have 50+ 3750 stacks working great on our campus.

We currently have a site with a very simple topology that uses a 3750X switch stack for a collapsed core. Everyday, the users have a conference call and experience poor voice quality.Its not bad when users call from several conference phones, but when everyone calls in on individual phones, there is choppy and almost inaudible voice quality experienced. The voice traffic flow would be as follows: Phone <-> 3750 switch <-> Voice GW We have packet captures showing that RTP packet loss is occuring from the phone to the voice gateway, but none from the voice gateway to the phones. We also have drops in the output queues that match drops on the asics. I can reset the counters and they will be clear until the call, and then they increment significantly during the call. The voice gateway and phones are non-Cisco. The switch stack has 6 switches. We are trusting the DSCP settings on the phones. All the queue drops from the phones are usually in queues 0-3, but all drops on the voice gateway is in queue 0. Below are the QoS settings; they are mostly default and we have not changed any queuing, thresholds, or buffers. Should we specify larger buffers and threshold for a designated queue and send EF traffic to that queue?
MySwitch#sh mls qos
QoS is enabled
QoS ip packet dscp rewrite is disabled
Typical Port
GigabitEthernet1/0/4
trust state: trust dscp

I am trying to do ios upgrade on 5 stacked 3750 switches. All the switches have different model number, so i am wondering which image file i should download. As far as i understand all the stacked switches should have the same IOS, i may be wrong. The switches have the following model numbers and SW images;
Switch Ports Model SW Version SW Image
------ ----- ----- ---------- ----------
1 28 WS-C3750G-24PS 12.2(35)SE5 C3750-IPSERVICESK9-M
* 2 28 WS-C3750G-24PS 12.2(35)SE5 C3750-IPSERVICESK9-M
3 52 WS-C3750G-48PS 12.2(35)SE5 C3750-IPSERVICESK9-M
4 30 WS-C3750E-24PD 12.2(35)SE5 C3750E-UNIVERSAL-M
5 30 WS-C3750E-24PD 12.2(35)SE5 C3750E-UNIVERSAL-M
which image file i should use as they all have different model numbers and Cisco provides different image files for each model.

I have client who has two distant offices with 3750 L3 as core (do all vlan routing for local office) and multiple L2 access switches with multiple VLAN’s connected to it. First 3750 is hub also connected to internet, second 3750 is spoke and acting as a router on stick. We have eigrp configured on both side ISP provided client 100Mbps link as a trunk with two vlan; vlan10 for voice and vlan20 for data. We assigned two small subnets to these vlans 10.15.17.0/29 and 10.15.17.9/29. Hub addresses are 10.15.17.1 and 10.15.17.9 respectively. How to force voice over VLAN10 and data via vlan20, but still do some load balancing? How to setup default route on second (router on stick) switch?

We have several stacks of 3750 switches where this problem is occurring. All of the switches are running IOS version 12.2(50)SE3. (Yes, I know it's old.)
We're seeing inconsistency in how the stack reports members when issuing the following commands:
sow switch
show version
show inventory
Not all members are showing up in the output of the "show version" and "show inventory" commands. For example:
HUNTI-WV-WDAC03#sh switch
H/W Current
Switch# Role Mac Address Priority Version State
----------------------------------------------------------
1 Member 108c.cff2.ea00 15 0 Ready
2 Member 8cb6.4f0a.a600 1 0 Ready
*3 Master 8cb6.4f0a.9c00 1 0 Ready
(all three switches in stack are displayed)(code)

why the AutoQoS macro does not implement "priority-queue out" when configured on the 3750 platform running certain versions of software. The only other platform I have experience with AutoQos is on the 4500 and it enables priority queuing as expected. So what's up with autoqos on the 3750 on version 12.2(35)SE5?
When it comes to configuring QoS on campus user/phone access ports there are some important settings that can and should be considered but one can argue that enabling the priority queue is the single most impactful or important command. So I was very surprised and concerned when I didn't see priority-queue out. Cisco describes AutoQoS as a simple, quick way of deploying QoS on the LAN and it precludes you from having to learn all of the differences between hardware platforms. But is it true that this tool produces an incomplete config solution? Let me know if I am missing something.
Here is an example of what AutoQoS produces when applied to a 4507 with WS-X4648-RJ45V+E:(other interface commands are left out for simplicity)
interface GigabitEthernet5/25description XYZ
switchport mode accessauto qos voip cisco-phoneqos trust device cisco-phoneservice-policy input AutoQos-VoIP-Input-Cos-Policyservice-policy output AutoQos-VoIP-Output-Policy
policy-map AutoQos-VoIP-Output-Policy
class AutoQos-VoIP-Bearer-QosGroup
set dscp ef
[code]......
Here is an example of what AutoQoS produces when applied to a 3750 running version 12.2.(35)SE5: (no priority-queue out)
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/36
switchport access vlan 8

I am wanting to etherchannel from a 3750 stack to core Layer 3 switches (also 3750) with a cable going to each core switch, I have put both core switches and the stack under a 28bit subnet mask, but I dont seem to be load balancing across both links.
