Cisco Switching/Routing :: Multiple Vlans On Catalyst 2950?
Sep 13, 2012
I have a above said switch at my remote office (600KM) which is connected with L2 Point to Point leased line. Both the ends I have Cisco 3950 catalyst switches with Vlans configured at both the ends. Now, for obvious reasons I should remove the other end 3950 switch and replace with Cisco 2950 switch. The other end 3950 is having 4 Vlans configured on 4 ports. Now my requirement is, I should configure 3 Vlans (one for P2P, one for 10 Desktops and one for to bring traffic from other network).
I have 10 2950 switches on my network that support only 64 vlans on each one. I actualy have requrement to cleate around 100 vlans acros them, can I switch off vtp and create required vlans manualy? I will have more or less following set up:
I am aware that private-vlans are not supported on edge switches like 2960 series - so my question is would it be possibel to ceate private vlans on say just the core switch which would be a 3570 or 4506 that supports private vlans and then just trunk these to the edge like normal vlans?what I need to achive is to have edge port not able to communicate to each other even across switches - which cannot be done using 'protected' port so need the private vlan feature?
i am trying to set up a cisco 2950 with a vlan to seperate all of the pos machines on the network (4 of them) from all other machnes in the building (3 hard wired and wi-fi). i was going to use vlan 1 as a trunk to allow internet access to go from fa0/1 to both vlans (vlan 10 and vlan 20). i have read things about the acl having an explicit deny at the end, so i'm thinking that is my problem. i am testing it at my house before deploying it to the network. i have 1 laptop setup with an ip of 192.168.0.50, and the other is .60. my router is 192.168.0.1. i have the ethernet from the router plugged into fa0/1, the 1st laptop on fa0/2 and the other at fa0/3. before i set the vlans up, i checked the communication by just plugging them in and trying to ping, they could both ping each other, the router and 8.8.8.8. when i finished setting up the test vlans, they could not ping each other(what i wanted) and laptop 1 can ping the router, and 8.8.8.8. laptop 2 cannot ping anything. the only thing i did was create vlan 10 and 20, set port fa0/2 to vlan 10 and no sh, fa03 to vlan 20 and no sh, fa0/1 to vlan 1 and no sh. then i did switchport mode trunk on fa0/1, and switchport native vlan 1. this seems to be how i was supposed to do it, but it's been a while since i have worked with switches. i'm sure it's simple, but after searching the internet and poring over my cisco books for 5 hours, it is turning out not to be the case. here are some details:
I bought refurbished Catalyst 2950. I followed all steps(even ip address and subnetmask and ..etc) guided in [URL] no thing happen, my computer doesn't connect internet. I guess switch has no routing.. Before bought that, i thought it is plug and play type. And now having some serious issue which i have to configure via telnet and/or ssh.
have setup a small lab as per CBTNuggets. Everything was going well until I introduced a second switch to create a trunk. Now I cannot ping between my two switches. Both show operational mode as down:
I have tried to allow all vlans or vlan 1 specifically and the output of the above doesn't seem to change. I am wondering if there is something in the config-register that is preventing trunking, but I don't really know enough yet!
The output of my second switch is identical to this one, the only difference is that I have it configured as a vtp client.
Configuring a network with Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol. There's a combination of Cisco 3650s, 2950 and 2960 switches. It is a flat Layer 2 network with a single VLAN. CLI configuration?
I have a customers Catalsyt 2950 switch come in for the configuration to be cleaned to factoy default, using the link below removed the customers banner and login information whitch worked
[URL]
When i restart the switch and enter Enable mode I'm prompted with the password which i used when following the link above,
I want to remove all passwords so when the switch is redeployed to the next site who ever the engineer is that is going to be reconfiguring the switch is able to access privlage mode with out the password promt.
I'm having trouble with a Cisco Catalyst 2950 Series Switch where by I'm following the procedure from Cisco's web site to remove the Banner and login information, url..
Each command is being accepted by the switch from following the information given within the help sheet above,the problem i have now is when i turn the power off then turn the switch back on I'm still getting the banner and login information even though i have follwed Cisco's help correctly.
I am not able to successfully accomplish the password reset function. This 2950 does not respond to the mode button held down at power up or to sending a briak. I have tried both several times and the switch continues to fully boot. [URL]

Using Network Assistant in XP, plugged ethernet cable to first front port and keep getting "Failed to get Default Gateway. Check your security settings to make sure the current Java Virtual Machine is not prevented from running commands.", I have tried reducing secruity to nothing but I still get the same problem.
I also have an official cisco console cable and tried that, but Hyperterminal just does not pick it up when plugged in. I have left the IP dynamic, turned off all netowork adapters apart from ethernet, set the baud rate etc... correctly, still no joy.
I recently set up a Cisco 881 to cover a small business network. The router is currently set up and working as expected. We recently decided to move to VoIP phones and here is where I'm running into some issues.
First an overview: We run a network with a cable internet WAN connection, this connection is DHCP, however we have a static IP through our ISP. We also have a block of 30 additional IP addresses for one to one mapping as we need them. The new VoIP system is being run over T1 lines throughout the township (we are a municipal organization) and the VoIP system is being run to about 5 buildings in the township.
This brings me to the topic of VLANs. As the phone engineer explained it to me, there is a network set up over the T1 that allows the VoIP equipment to talk to one another and operates all of the VoIP phones on one network. The equipment that is being installed at our building connects to the network over the T1 and "talks" to the other equipment on the network. The engineer wants to create a VLAN and run it on ports fa1 and fa2, with the fa2 port being connected to the actual "MPLS" (their term) that connects to the T1 and into the cloud, and the fa1 port connected to the internal phone switch.
TLDR; The problem is this: When we attempt to set up the VLAN on ports fa1 and fa2, we have no connectivity with the other units in the external VoIP cloud. Pinging while directly connected to the "MPLS" yields successful pings, while pinging from the router with the "MPLS" connected to fa2 yields failures. I'm going to post the running config below, I feel like what we're doing should be working. I asked around about subinterfacing, but others seemed to think this was not necessary.

I 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?
Switch: SG500 VLANS: 1 (default) xxx.xxx.0.0/24 network, 150 (device management vlan) xxx.xxx.150.0/24 network I am plugged into port 1. This is a trunk port with VLANs assigned as follows: VLAN 1 (Default) - UntaggedVLAN 150 (dev mgmt) - Tagged Device is plugged into port 2. This is an access port with the following VLAN assigned: VLAN 150 - Untagged Why is it I cannot communicate with the device on port 2?
I have a a hardware server running a VM hosting virtual servers which are all on different VLANs. My challenge now is to configure the switchport that the server is connected to, to see all the VLANs needed by this VM. The VM has an IP that is used for managing the server VMs which is on a different VLAN also.
My switch is a 2960 switch and it is presently trunked from the core switch.
I've just started a new job after a couple of years not touching cisco gear and been pitched in... My new employer has a network that's Juniper based. We've inherited a load of Cisco switches as part of the deal for hosting matches during the Rugby world cup (plus a load of Aruba wireless gear that promises to be my very own special millstone, but that's bye the bye.)
My task is to hang these catalyst 2960's onto our existing infrastructure via fibre connections.
On the Juniper switch, there are four vlans being pushed to the port the cisco's hooked into: Code...
I was assigned a task to configure an SG300-28P to have 3 different vlans.Now on VLAN1 their will be only one device configured with static IP 192.168.0.230,On the other 2 VLANS there will be a separate router connected on each one of them and will also act as a DHCP server.
I am aware that private-vlans are not supported on edge switches like 2960 series - so my question is would it be possibel to ceate private vlans on say just the core switch which would be a 3570 or 4506 that supports private vlans and then just trunk these to the edge like normal vlans?
what I need to achive is to have edge port not able to communicate to each other even across switches - which cannot be done using 'protected' port so need the private vlan feature
I am testing on lab equipment (2 Catalyst 3550 and 1 Catalyst 3560) HSRP version 1 and 2.I successfully created a load balancing between the two Catalyst 3550 on a couple of vlans (11 and 12) on ver 1
now, just adding the command "standby xx version 2" my hosts on the 2 vlans are completely unable to ping the virtual IP def. gw on debugging i checked that msgs are exchangedthe two cat 3550 are seeing each other on HSRP (active / standby roles)the real ip addresses are pingable rebooted the swiches (just as a last resort try)deleted arp chache on hostsremoved the auth on hsrp all of this no effect.
i also tried to modify the priority on the cat 3560 (before he was on both vlans in standby) to make it the active one and with the same config it worked flawlessly.
My only idea is that there is a bug on CATs 3550 (IOS: c3550-ipservicesk9-mz.122-55.SE4.bin) [code]
I would like to configure a 3750 switch port to be able to use two vlans. I know you can do this with a voice and data vlan, but what about two data vlans ? Say I have two devices, one on a 10 subnet and the other on a 172 subnet, but i only have one wall jack for both devices to plug into. So I use a mini switch to connect both devices and connect the switch to the wall jack; and of course this all leads back to one switch port. When I go to enter the switchport access vlan 172 cmd, how would I also make it so the device on the 10 subnet could route out ?
We need to give differentiated internet access to three VLANs. Each one of this VLANs is used for totally different purposes, so traffic between the VLANs is not allowed. Each VLAN has its own internet access provided for the data center using one fast ethernet connection.
We're thinking about using cisco 2911 for Internet access, VPN and firewall. I suppose that best option for VLANs is using Catalyst 2960S or a swithing module for the 2911, but these two options are too expensive for us. We're thinking about using swtiches from the SB series (maybe a SG-200).
We're totaly newbies to VLANs so we have many doubts. This are our questions:
1) The 2911 has three on board ethernet interfaces; we have three VLANs and three internet connections, so we need to use HWICs to get three more ethernet ports. That's right? 2) We need three HWICs or there is some kind of HWIC with more that one ethernet interface? 3) The routing solution is to assign static routes in the 2911 for each interface connected to a VLAN through a 2911's interface connected to internet? 4) Simply connecting three different router interfaces with three different switch ports, each one of them assigned to one of the three different VLAN, are we going to get internet access for all devices in those VLANs? or do we need to configure something else like trunking, VSIs...? 5) Can we achieve our goals using the SG-200 switch? 6) We have the chance to use older routers, is this possible? We're specially interested in knowing if a 1841 or a 2801 router could be used for this setup. 7) This is not a production environment so we can use refurbished equipment.
We have a customer that is relocating thier headquarters. They have a temporary requirement to bridge multiple vlans or a router T3 link to the new location as they cannot change the IP subnets. Setup is 3560 switch connecting to a 3845 then T3 to remote 3845 and 3560. I need to bridge multiple VLANs. I have seen a good example on how to do it over sonet but I don't see how to translate that to an HDLC or Frame Relay encapsulation for the T3 Link.
I have a network with a Catalyst 3750 as the main switch and then some Catalyst 2960 switches that are plugged in to that. I have a server running windows server 2008 with a couple of virtual machines running in Hyper-V. I created 4 VLANS listed below and gave the 3750 the following IP Address.I would like the 3750 to only be configurable from VLAN 40 but currently every VLAN can connect to it, I noticed in the standard web page settings there was a setting for "Management VLAN" but it was set to 1 and would not let me change it, I kinda assumed that was for the management port in the back.-Now the tricky part, I was trying to set up routing between the VLANs and so far I have only been able to get a sort of "all or nothing" routing to work. I can turn IP routing on and add two or more VLANs to the routing and it works fine. But what I was hoping to do is create a couple of "junction vlans" that would only route to one or two other vlans. For instance, I wanted to create a VLAN 100 that routed to VLAN 20 and 30 but nothing else. I also want to route VLAN 1 just to VLAN 30, and so on. I am able to do each one of the cases but only one, it seems like the switch only supports one "routing table" am I missing something or is this just a limitation of the switch?
I have a Cisco SG200 26 Port Switch, 2 Cisco WAP4410N Access points, and a VLAN aware Router. I have created 4 VLAN's. For the sake of this conversation lets call them.
The Access points are capable of doing V LAN tagging so I plan on having them tag a guest network as V LAN 101. That can get sent to the V LAN aware router and out. No problem. I have some devices, or management pages that I don't want accessible from the general network. (Intel V pro KVM, Remote Management Cards, AP Config Menus, Switch config menu...) . I need to be able to take a V LAN unaware device, plug it into port 1, and have it communicate with V LAN 98, 99 and 100.
My problem is that I have a Cisco 300 series small business switch with multiple VLANS each one with an IP address and two or three ports assigned to each VLAN. I have an E3200 wireless router that I want to use to use to share internet on the switch. All of the VLANs are reachable from the other VLANs and I've put a static route on the E3200 so that I can reach the VLANs from a machine connected only to the router. But I can't reach machines on the otherside of the router or get to the internet from the switch.
how i can configure a second ssid for guest access in our environment. this is our network setup prior to this request: Internet----Firewall (not ASA)---ce520---C1131AG and CME router is also connecting to the ce520 switch. we only have two vlans: one for voice and two for data.
Presently, there is no vlan configured on the AP because it on broadcasting ont ssid and wireless users gets IP from a windows DHCP server on the LAN. the configuration on the ce520 switch port for the AP and other switches say access vlan is the DATA vlan which automatically becomes the native vlan for all trunk port connecting the AP and other Stiches to the network.
Now with this new requirement, i have made my research and i have configured the AP to broadcast both the production and the guest Vlans. The two vlans are 20-DATA and 60-Guest. I made the DATA vlan on the AP the native vlan since the poe switch is using the DATA vlan as native on the trunk ports. I configured the firewall to serve as DHCP server for the guest ssid and i have added the ip helper-address on the guest vlan interface on all switches while the windows server remains the dhcp server for the production DATA Vlan. I have confirmed that the AP, switches can ping the default gateway of the guest dhcp server which is another interface on the firewall. I can now see and connect to all broadcasted ssids but the problem is I am not getting IP addresses from both the production dhcp server and guest dhcp server when i connected to the ssid one at a time. My AP config is attached below.
Do i need to redesign the whole network to have a native vlan other nthan the data vlan? Does the access point need to be aware of the voice vlan? Do the native Vlan on the AP need to be in Bridge-group 1 or can i leave it in bridge-group 20?
My question is if I can configure 3 ssid, for 3 different VLAN and add the DHCP address from a WAP4410N AP, when you upgrade to the latest version of IOS I can have this functionality?
