Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5010 Interconnected With Two UpLinks

Dec 11, 2011

We are looking for some latency in our net and I am trying to check if our STP implementations is running correctly - we have a simple flat network here and no blocked ports here - just two nx 5010 which are interconnected with two uplinks.A remote site - mirrored setup - with 2 10G dark fiber connections - one for each nx5010 - is connection a DR site. I have split the two sites in two stp domains by enabling bpdu-filter on the vpc between the two sites.

I have been running wireshark on the local segment for some time and see the STP RST ROOT announcement every 2. seconds  - this is probably normal ? I was looking for some alternate root negotiation packets which would cause the mac tables to be flushed.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5010 With 1G And 10G Uplinks In VPC?

Aug 12, 2012

I currenty have a Nexus 5010 connected to a core 3750X switch stack  in a VPC trunk using 2  1Gbps links.  I want to move this link to 2  10Gbps links without losing connectivity.  So I want remove a 1G link  and move it to 10G and then once that's up move the other 1G link to 10G  hopefully without losing connectivity.  So the question is, can I have a  1G and 10G link between the Nexus and 3750s in the same virtual port  channel without causing problems?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5010 - Only See Two 1 Gb/s SFP Fibre Modules

Nov 23, 2012

we have a old Nexus 5010 running version 5.0(3)N1(1)it is in a franckenblock(like frankenstein) ie . we bought the parts and create our own system design before VCE was created. He have since bought VCE V block for our production sites. we use the franc ken block to test before we migrate to the production v block 300 FIX the issue we have is the 5010 will only see two 1 Gb/s SFP fiber modules in the first 12 slots. All these slots are dual 1g/10G. If we add more than two, it claims not to see them. We tried swapping the sfp and using both sfg-GE-MM and GLC-SX-MM moduels, no difference at all 1g sfp are in the first 5 slots. only the first two slots are up.the others say "Link not connected" or "SFP not inserted"all five links are the same SFP and are plugged in other switches.the green link lights are on plugged in SFP, even when the CLI states they are not plugged uni tried both two types of 1 Gb/s SFP. sfg-GE-MM and GLC-SX-MM ,i move the sfp between slot 1,2 and 3,4,5. nothing changed,From "sh int brief" you can see that it can see the sfp ie they are all 1Gfrom "sh int status " it sees 1g but why does it say type 10G?why when i go to the "int e 1/5" and try switch port mode now, it can't mode and trunk at now there (;also how to i stop or clear EU51 %SYSMGR-2-TMP_DIR_FULL: System temporary directory usage is unexpectedly high at 87%.i put as much info in the attached file as i could.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Any Function Built In Nexus 5010 To Detect Intermittent Link Down

Nov 23, 2011

I found intermittent link down(20~40 seconds average) occurred about 1~10 times every month. SAP reported a lot of active connections are disconnected and I used a batch to ping and found "requested time out" about 30 seconds.And Windows, SQL server, Nexus 5010 do not show any errors. We run cluster and cluster does not fail over.And I don't know which cables or nics cause this issue. When it happened, almost all servers are unreachable. For example, SQL server 1 -> SQL server 2, IBM HS22-1 -> SQL server 1. However, some connections are not dropped sometimes. It varies each time.PS: I run this topology last year without any problems but it started intermittent link down from 2011/1/7. Because there is no errors in Nexus 5010, it is difficult to troubleshoot. Cisco TAC recommended us to implement virtual port channel yesterday. Could I use "errdisable detect cause" to detect what caused the intermittent link down? Is there any error logs or switch parameters/status can use to troubleshoot?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5010 - Capture From Source To Destination Port On Same Switch

May 19, 2013

Basically I am trying to use Wireshark to do a packet capture on a Nexus 5010. I want to do a monitor session on on the switch so I can capture from a source port to a destination port on the same switch. I can configure the source port but when I go to configure the destination port I get "ERROR: Eth102/1/4: Configuration not allowed on fex interface". I have tried to reconfigure this port as a switchport but "switchport mode access" command does not take. I don't want to make any changes to any other ports but this one.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Private Vlan / Etherchannel And Isolated Trunk On Nexus 5010

Feb 9, 2011

I'm not sure if I'm missing something basic here however i though that I'd ask the question. I recieved a request from a client who is trying to seperate traffic out of a IBM P780 - one set of VIO servers/clients (Prod) is tagged with vlan x going out LAG 1 and another set of VIO server/clients (Test) is tagged with vlan y and z going out LAG 2. The problem is that the management subnet for these devices is on one subnet.
 
The infrastructure is the host device is trunked via LACP etherchannel to Nexus 2148TP(5010) which than connects to the distribution layer being a Catalyst 6504 VSS. I have tried many things today, however I feel that the correct solution to get this working is to use an Isolated trunk (as the host device does not have private vlan functionality) even though there is no requirement for hosts to be segregated. I have configured:
 
1. Private vlan mapping on the SVI;
2. Primary vlan and association, and isolated vlan on Distribution (6504 VSS) and Access Layer (5010/2148)
3. All Vlans are trunked between switches
4. Private vlan isolated trunk and host mappings on the port-channel interface to the host (P780).
 
I haven't had any luck. What I am seeing is as soon as I configure the Primary vlan on the Nexus 5010 (v5.2) (vlan y | private-vlan primary), this vlan (y) does not forward on any trunk on the Nexus 5010 switch, even without any other private vlan configuration. I believe this may be the cause to most of the issues I am having. Has any one else experienced this behaviour. Also, I haven't had a lot of experience with Private Vlans so I might be missing some fundamentals with this configuration.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Full Switch Outage After Enabling Jumbo Frames On Nexus 5010

Nov 22, 2011

I attempted to enable jumbo frames on a Nexus 5010 (NX-OS version 4.2(1)N1(1)).  I created the policy map below and lost access to the switch.
 
policy-map type network-qos jumbo

After recovery I see from the logs that all vlans and interface were suspended.  I've attempted to look for reasons for a compatibility issue but I am unable to find what is checked and what could have been incompatible.  The other troubling thing is the adjacent switch suspended its interfaces too but no change was done there. What I need to look out for so that this does not happen again?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509-E Switches Interconnected On Layer 3 Port Channel

Oct 3, 2012

We are currently designing  Layer 3 to the edge EIGRP solution  for our customers. The network is a hybrid of collapsed  core (Core to access) as well as a three layer design (Core/Distro/Access) for connectivity to the Data Centre, Internet, Wireless Blocks etc.The  core of the network contains two 6509-E switches interconnected on a  Layer 3 Port channel (no VSS). Access Layer switches (3750-X series running Stackwiseplus protocol)  connect to the core switches over p2p routed links and Distribution layer switches (3750X stackwiseplus) provide connectivity to the  Data centre, Internet, wireless blocks etc.
 
The access and distribution switch stacks(Cisco 3750-X) are set up with two or three member switches with uplinks multihomed to the primary and secondary core switch with each uplink included in EIGRP. In each of the stacks, one of the switches controls the operation of the stack, which will be  the stack master.As the Cisco Stackwise architecture is not SSO-capable but NSF aware, all Layer 3 fuctions must be re-established during a master switch outage. To minimize control plane impact and improve Layer3 convergence, uplinks should be diverse and originate from the member switches instead of the Master switches in the respective stack. This is as per Cisco recommended design solution.The above solution can be setup if there are more than two switches in the stack. i.e. uplinks are configured on the backup member switch modules.
 
1.But what about stack with two switches..Which switch should be set up as the Master for a two member stack with uplinks to the core primary and secondary from each switch(Master and Backup)
 
2. For Layer 3 routing, does the routing takes precedene over switch failures? Say for eg. In a two member stack, the master switch with uplink to primary fails, does EIGRP provide a fast convergence to route traffic via backup secondary and does not wait for the control plane on the switch stack to converge? All the access to core links will be set up for ECMP.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Mix 10G And 1G Uplinks On 2960s?

Switch 3750E  has two TwinGig Adapter Converting 10 Gigabit Ethernet X2, phisically each twinGig adapter has 2 slots for SFP modules. Can I install sfp+ If I want to use copper for Uplink at 10 Gbps, I just need to install one SFP-H10GB-CU5M transceiver ????  the other SFP slot is disabled automatically?
 
in the other side 3750X in order to support copper at 10 Gbps a C3KX-NM-10G network module  is considered, this will be connected to SW3750E by means of  SFP-H10GB-CU5M.
 
The second 3750X will be connected to second twinGig Adapter of 3750E using another SFP-H10GB-CU5M transceiver.

Cisco AAA/Identity/Nac :: Nexus 5010 Allows TACACS And Local Authentication Concurrently

Jun 6, 2011

I am experiencing an issue where NX-OS on our 5010s is allowing both Local AND TACACS authentication concurrently.  If I don't configure any aaa authorization commands, the locally logged in user has unmitigated access to the device.  Once I enable aaa authroization, all commands issued by the locally logged in user are denied by ACS, but they can still log in to the device.  When I comb through the logs on the ACS server, I see successful logins when TACACS credentials are used, and also the failed attempts when the locally configured credentials are used.  On the switch, however, I receive "%TACACS-3-TACACS_ERROR_MESSAGE:  All servers failed to respond" when using locally configured credentials on the switch itself.  We are running ACS v4.2.

I need to setup a layer 2 network consisting of 14 switches interconnected in a ring. Obviously, the design of 14 switches in a ring network is dumb, not here to debate that. Unfortunately, it HAS to be a ring. I've been researching the best way to configure RSTP for this. From everything I've read all I really need to do is configure Primary/Secondary root bridge in the center, and change the Maximum Age field to at least 16 seconds? From what I've read you want a minimum of 3 second buffer + 1 second for each hop due to message age being added by each switch hop?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5000 LAN Routing Connection Deployment

May 16, 2013

We have our Nexus as our default gateway (101.1) and the default VLAN1 is setup with two subnets 101.X and 102.X. The DHCP server is using a superscope setup to accomodate the overflow of devices requesting IPs on 101, so when 101 is consumed persons are able to obtain a 102.X IP address. The setup is basic on superscope. The issue is some times the routing to the firewall with a 102.X is not always 100%. Somedays all goes well and the 102 subnet is routed out to the firewall and its a good day. However, such as today a 102.X address is not routing as it did 24 hours ago. I am perplexed as to why this is behaving unpredicatable. Here is running-config for VLAN1 to show the 102 as secondary address to VLAN1.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 7010 - Inter-VLAN Routing On Multilayer VPC Environment

Feb 16, 2011

you find attached my network architecture with 2 Nexus 7010 on core layer and 2 Nexus 5020 on distribution layer, each one with 1 N2148T fabric extender switch. PC-A1 and PC-A2 are connected to one N2148T, PC-B1 is connected to the other N2148T. Nexus-7000-1 is HSRP Active for all VLANs, Nexus-7000-2 is HSRP standby. PC-A1 and PC-A2 are connected to VLAN A, PC-B1 is connected to VLAN B. PC-A1 and PC-A2 have the same default gateway correspondent to IP HSRP on VLAN A. It happens that PC-A1 is able to ping PC-B1 while PC-A2 is unable to ping PC-B1. If I issue a traceroute from PC-A2 I see Nexus-7000-2’s physical IP address as the first hop even if Nexus-7000-2 is HSRP standby. After the first hop the traceroute is lost. If I shutdown Port-channel 20 on Nexus-5000-2, PC-A2 starts to ping PC-B1.I can’t understand what’s wrong in this architecture.
