Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP - Management Interface

Apr 21, 2013

How separate is the management interface on a Nexus 5548?
 
In context - what's the risk of having a layer 2 only Nx5K in a DMZ and running the managment ports down into an internal managment VLAN, to form peer-keepalive links and software upgrades.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP / Two Management Interfaces For N5k

Jan 10, 2013

I have a Nexus 5548UP that would be managed by two organizations. Is it possible to set IP addresses for mgmt0 and an SVI (or an L3 interface) without using the L3 daughter card? I don't want to route between VLANs, just to separate management traffic.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 7K Out Of Band Management Interface?

Dec 8, 2012

regarding to the out of band Management interface , if I configured an intervace vlan to be as a managment interface for one vdc ( the default vdc ), when I connected to this vdc via telnet , can I switch to any other vdc ?  ( suppose that I have the Admin role which allows me to enter and config all the vdc's )If that is possible so that I dont have to make a dedicated managment ip for each VDC I need to do that only if I want to make vdc admin's account to allow some users to access specific vlans only , is that true ?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Management Interface On Nexus 7010?

Apr 28, 2013

We have a couple of Nexus 7010's split into Core and Distribution VDCs. MGMT0 interfaces on each of the Nexus VDC's (including the Admin VDC) are configured with different IP address, but on the same subnet i.e 10.10.10.1/24 for admin, 10.10.10.2/24 for Core and 10.10.10.3/24 for Distribution. The MGMT 0 physical port on each Nexus is connected to a physical gig port on a 3750 X switch, and the 3750X has uplinks back to the Nexus configured for vPC.
 
When i ssh to the VDC MGMT0 IPs from the 3750X, i can access each of these VDCs without any problems. But if i enable routing on each of these links(OSPF) and advertise it to the WAN, i cannot see these routes advertised and also cannot see any of these routes in the local routing table.Just wondering if i have to enable these links on a VLAN and then advertise it to the WAN..But if this the case, VLANs cannot be created  on the Admin(default VDC).

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP / L3 Cannot Do Inter-VRF Communications?

Aug 28, 2012

I'm trying to get a node in SVI1 on VRF1 to speak to another node in SVI2 on VRF2 to reach each other.  After hours of failure, I went to outside resources.  Everything I read on the internet says it's not possible on this platform and at least one TAC engineer seems to agree.
 
I just can't believe such a high-end data center switch is not capable of handling such a basic feature.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Replacing C4507R-E With Nexus 5548UP?

Jul 25, 2012

We currently have an environment with a 4507 as the core switch connected to four stacks of 3750e's in the wiring closets. A pair of Nexus 5548UP's also hangs off the 4507, but at the moment more or less dedicated to a certain purpose..The 5548UP's have the L3 daughter card installed.
 
My question is: Can a pair of Nexus 5548UP's do a C4507's job? Would we be able to decomission the 4507 and replace with the existing 5548UP's + FEXes?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP To 2248 Design

Aug 10, 2012

This past networkers I was at the Cisco booth discussing how the 2248 can connect to the 5548 and have server connectivity.  It was told to me that now, as of a fairly recent NX-OS release, you can have the 2248 going dual-homed to both 5548 via VPC and then have a server connected to both 2248 and be in active-active mode.  Is this correct?
 
When we first deployed our 5548 and 2248 we had to put the 2248 in a straight pin mode, where it only had connections to one 5548 and then the server would dual connect to the 2248's and be in active-active mode.  I was told that this changed with an NX-OS release however documentation still seems to be fragmented on what exactly is the case.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP With L3 Card / Inter-VRF Not Possible?

Aug 28, 2012

I just received a Nexus 5548 to configure as the core of the Datacenter LAN.  Is it true that the VRFs created cannot talk to each other???  I can't seem to find any documentation on how to do this and at least one TAC engineer half-heartedly believes it's not possible, either.
 
Basically, I'm trying to get an SVI in VRF1 to be able to talk to an device on another SVI in VRF2.
 
I can't believe this high-end switch, that is so capable in every regard, cannot handle this feature.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: LLDP Chassis Discovery On Nexus 5548UP?

I'm seeing several error messages like these in the logs of my Nexus 5548UP switches.

I will say that these 5548s are serving as the distribution layer for a UCS chassis (2x 6120 FIs) but didn't know what kind of visibility the Nexus would have into that - the chassis keyword is what's alluding to this in my mind, and I'm seeing these messages whenever interfaces that connect downstream to the fabric interconnects are brought up or down.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP Connectivity With Router 2811

Aug 15, 2012

In the existing network we have Cisco 2811 router connected to Corporate MPLS cloud. Cisco 2811 is connected to Catalyst 6509 switch(set based IOS with MSFC card). Along with that we have two Catalyst 5509. We are upgrading the access layer by replacing catalyst switches with Nexus 5548 & 2248.
 
For a purpose of testing I have connected 5548 & 2248. Created cPC and ether channels between two. SVI and HSRP configuredon 5548. I am terminating 2651 (test router) on 2248 port 101/1/1. On 5548 I have enabled EIGRP on vlans. I am unable to ping to 2651 from nexus switch 5548 and vice-versa. I can see both devices on CDP but I do not see eigrp neighborship formed.
 
What configuration should go in 2248 and 2651 in order to establish a connection between two? If test is successful then I will connect 2811 to 2248 during actual migration. I assume that in testing if it works for 2651 then it must work on 2811 router.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP Change Peer Keep Alive Link

Apr 19, 2013

I have a pair of Nexus 5548UPs that have some high priority servers running on them.  Servers are ESX hosts running Nexus 1000v's.  Each host has multple connections in a VPC to both 5548s.  We have been having intermittant ping loss and slowness of traffic to the VM's on these hosts.  I was poking around trying to figure out what the issue could be and found that the peer-keepalive command was not set to send the heart beat across the mgmt0 interface.  I would like to change this to point it accross the mgmt0 interface. Any tips or advice for me on making this change with production servers running on the switches?  I do not want to cause any loss to any systems when I make this change.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP - (Physical Address Changes) Messages In SolarWinds

Dec 9, 2012

We have recently upgraded oor LAN and we are using couple of Nexus5548UP switches in the core with 2960 stacks as access switches. Each access switches stack is connnected to both core switches with link being port-chanels and VPCs. All is working fine, but our SolarWinds management platform (NPM) is being flooded with "Physical Address changed" events. Here is an example of messages:
 
NSW_Core_2 - Ethernet1/7 Physical Address changed from 000000003811 to 73616D653811
NSW_Core_2 - Ethernet1/7 Physical Address changed from 200B82B43811 to 000000003811
 
For each interface I have messages like these repeating.I am not sure what those messages means or if there is actually anything wrong. Performance of the network is good, there are no errors on any interfaces and I do not see anything related in the switch loggs.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Configuring Management Of SVI / Nexus 5548?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 5596 Nexus In-band Management With SVI

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Setting Up Nexus 5000(s) For Inband Management?

Feb 12, 2012

we do not have an out-of-band management network and setting one up at this point is not being planned.  We are mainly a swtiched environment and the only devices that are using L3 are the core switch for WAN purposes and the lab because it is mimicking the production environment.  I have two Nexus switches that are sitting on the other side of a 3750 switch which is currently acting as a L3 device because this is a pre-production environment for a new project.  We had an issue with management of the devices before but our workaround was to put them on the management vlan direcltly off of the core, allowing only management traffic to pass by means of mgmt0 on each device.  The problem I'm having now is that I've now setup the mgmt0 interfaces on both for the keepalive link for vpc only (vpc traffic is going accross 2x10gb connections and the link to the 3750 is 1gb each trunked) and have lost my ability to use the mgmt0 connections for management. How to connect my management connection through either the 3750 or directly off the core switch (as that's what will happen once it's put into production)

Cisco Switching / Routing :: 3560 - Accessing Management Interface Using Layer 3 Link

Apr 9, 2012

I am setting up a link between buildings that uses wireless links. I'm using Layer 3 routed ports on 2 3560 switches to handle the routing between sites. Normally I would just put these in a /30 and then the switches handle the rest. However, the wireless access points have a web interface for managing them that I want to be able to access, but it's only available on the single NIC that also carries traffic. What would be the best way of making this work? Should I make the link a /29 and give the access points an IP in the same range? If this is the case what do I use for the default gateway for the access points?
 
I have included a diagram to try to explain the issue clearer. The IP addresses in black are what I would do if this were a standard cable (and indeed this will work, but I wont be able to access the admin interface of the wireless AP) and the red ip addresses are the alternative if I use a /29 (but as I said, I'm not sure what to use for the default gateways).
