Cisco Switching/Routing :: Catalyst 2960S / Downgrade 10GB Twinax CU SFP Cable To 1GB?
Oct 30, 2012specifying Cisco devices and I've made an error.I have 2 Catalyst 2960S switches (C2960S-24PS-L).Based on this snippet of web copy from the Cisco website:What's new for the Cisco Catalyst 2960-S Series Switches with LAN Base Software: # 10 and 1 Gigabit Ethernet uplink flexibility with Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+), providing business continuity and fast transition to 10 Gigabit Ethernet I bought a cable assembly "SFP-H10GB-CU3M" (3 meter copper twinax cable with 10GB SFPs on each end). Unfortunately, it appears after more careful reasearch that my specific model 2960S's are not directly compatible. , can I force these 10GB SFPs down to 1GB and get them to work with my switches or do I need to return and repurchase?

Nov 20, 2011Any experience with bundling a 10GB interface on a 3750G-16TD-S with a WS-C3750X-48T-S with a 10GB interface. I have worked with 5 different TAC engineers and so far I have not gotten an answer on why the switch will not let me bundle the 10GB with another 10GB interface.
Same switch Stack – not a cross stack.
Tried every configuration possible with no luck. I originally thought it might be the stack-ring speed – I corrected that today and it is running at 32GB –
The only thing I can think of now is it might be a hardware limitation on the 3750G-16TD-S ?
Q. What performance of the 10 Gigabit Ethernet port on the Cisco Catalyst WS-C3750G-16TD switches?
A. The Ten Gigabit Ethernet uplink on the Cisco Catalyst WS-C3750G-16TD switches is 1.25:1 oversubscribed and provides maximum throughput of 8Gb/s. –
Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750x 12.2(58)SE2 IPBASE 10gb Uplink Ports Not Being Displayed
May 28, 2012we have just purchased a few 3750x's that we intend to add to our 3750g stacks. We've purchased the 10gb uplink modules, C3kx-nm-10gt, but when they are installed they are not appearing in the switches web gui nor can you configure them correctly. If we upgrade a 3750x to 15.0.1 they seem to work fine. All of our current 3750g's are running 12.2(58)SE2 IPBASE so we don't really want to have to upgrade them all to 15.0.1
Are we missing something or do the 10gb modules only work properly with ios 15.0.1?
Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750x Stack - LACP Waiting To Be Aggregated Takes Too Long
Oct 26, 2012I have configured a portchannel with 3 ports - lacp active mode I want to pxe boot esx server with Hp Proliant DL 360 G7.
During Pxe Boot the physical Interfaces must be in (I) state - standalone.
The server receives via dhcp the ip but after getting the ip the link goes down for a short time and the switchport goes down and then in (w) state - waiting to be aggregated. Now the server tries to load via tftp the image but the server gets a timeout because the switchport is in state (w). It takes a long time til the switchport comes back in standalone mode (I).
Is it possible to modify the time how long the switchport is in the waiting to be aggregated state on 3750x ?
Would the right command be lacp rate-fast? But this command is not available on 3750x, only 6000 series.
Cisco Switching/Routing :: QoS Differences Between 3750X And 2960S Platforms
Apr 24, 2013We are looking to replace some aging 3560 switches with 100Mb/s interfaces. They service IP phones and workstations.
For having IP phones directly connected to access switches that are also servicing workstations, we don't need L3 routing except in the core, so the question is what would we lose if we used 2960S switches for access switches.
I understand from having spoken with Cisco TAC that a limited subset of QoS is available on the 2960S platform. Does that includes the priority queue that is enabled when you turn on mls qos on a L3 switch?
Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750x / 2960S - How To Setup InterVLan Configuration
Jul 6, 2012I am trying to setup intervlan configuration and stuck on a problem. Here are the details:
1. Switches Catalyst 3750-x (as core switch) and Catalyst 2960S (as access switch)
2. Both switches have VLAN 20 and VLAN 1 on their database and both are active. BTW, after I figure out how to properly configure interVLAN routing the native VLAN 1 will not be used anymore. This is just an initial test.
3. VLAN 20 SVI interface (IP 192.168.20.200) on 3750 is up and can be pinged from catalyst 2960.
4. VLAN 1 SVI interface (IP 192.168.170.200) on 3750 is up and also can be pinged from Catalyst 2960.
5. Catalyst 3670 can ping a client computer (IP 192.168.20.10) connected to Catalyst 2960.
6. IP route enabled on 3750
7. Trunking is enabled on etherchannel connecting both 3750 and 2960
8. Client computer in VLAN 20 (connected to 2960) can ping VLAN 20 SVI interface 192.168.20.200 on switch 3560.But, the client computer in VLAN 20 can not reach any computer in VLAN 1 and vice versa. Strangely, the switches which these computers are connected to can ping each other or any connected client copmuters without any problem as described above.
Cisco Switching/Routing :: Passing VLAN / Spanning-tree Between 2960S And 3750X
Oct 8, 2012Has anything changed in the way of defaults for creating a trunk port and spanning-tree between a 3750x and the newer 2960s? I have one of each I just took out of the box and applied my standard switch configuration template but I cannot get my VLANs that are configured on my 3750X to appear on the 2960S. I find nothing that is blocking and everything seems to be forwarding and I am running out of things to check.

Feb 5, 2013I have 3560's in my current environment, operating in the core/distro/access layers. The switches are in a star configuration, performs only layer 2 switching, and utilizes copper (no plans on moving to fiber).
With a fairly limited budget, I've been contemplating on upgrading the central node to a stacked 3750X to eliminate that single point of failure, and trunk the rest of the 3560's to the stacked switch. I wanted to be sure that the 3750X switches will be right for my environment (90-100 hosts), and if what I explained above is a good solution.
I'm also looking like to upgrade 6-7 of my servers (and SAN) with 10GB network cards. Do the ports on the 3750X have port densities capable of 10GB? If not, what switches provide that capability?

Mar 5, 2013I have 2 PE routers connected to each other via 2960S and 3750 (non-metro) switches:
[PE1] -- [2960S] -- [3750] -- [2960S] -- [PE2]
I will be sending voice and data traffic between the two and my voice traffic will be marked DSCP EF & EXP 5.
Since the 2960's and 3750's can't match on the EXP bits, I am wondering if the "mls qos trust dscp" command still works. Is the 2960/3750 able to match on DSCP even though there's an MPLS header on top of the IP packet?
I'd like to avoid having to tag my VLAN traffic on the PE and rely on COS to achieve QoS in this case.

Jan 25, 2012How to get vlans working properly between sub-interfaces on a ASA and a trunk port on a switch.There seems to be issue with the VLAN's being assigned to the correct VLAN and this information being properly sent to the ASA over the trunk.
We seem to be unable to ping most of the interfaces except for one on the switch. Sometimes if we are lucky we are able to ping a host on a different vlan that is on the switch. This seems sparadic at best.
Logs on the ASA show traffic does not seem to be assigned properly to the correct sub interface. We have access rules on the ASA disallowing traffic not part of the same vlan. For example you will see networkA blocked on networkB when it really should be directed through networkA's sub interface.
Any example commands for the ASA and Switch for at least the basic requirements to enable all the VLAN's to communicate properly with the ASA?

Although in the configuration I have both a console username and password and an enable password, when I try to log onto the initial switch that I entered the configuration on, I am prompted for a username and password, which works fine, but when I try to enter enable mode i get an error stating that no password has been set. However when logging onto the other switch I am not prompted for a username or password but when I try to enter enable mode I am prompted for a password and can access it with no problems.
View 1 Replies View RelatedCisco Switching/Routing :: Stacking 24 And 48 Port 3750X Switches Not Working?
Dec 11, 2012We purchased a number of 3750X 48 and 24 port switches for the College Campus. Am finally getting around to getting them inserted on the network. Working with a WS-3750X-48PF-S and a WS-3750X-24P-L. Have them stacked with the 10Gb uplink on the 48 port switch. Have not been having fun.In the boot sequence, the switches recognize they are stacked, but as soon as they finish boot, I get the message on the 48 port switch: “Stack Port 1 Switch 1 has changed to state down.” Then “Stack Port 2 Switch1 has changed to state down.” Am noticing that I have a message preceding that: “Major version mismatch with stack neighbor.”The 48 port is running c3750e-universalk9-mz.150-1.SE3, HBOOT 12.2(53r)SE2.The 24 port is running c3750e-unversalk9-mz.122-55.SE3, HBOOT 12.2(53r)SE2Most of our 3750X and older switches are running 122-55 or 122.58 code. IP base or Universal. There is speculation that the problem is the 24 Port is Lan base, as the part number might indicate. (WS-C3750X-24-P-L.... I think that is the part number) and the 48 is IP base. Both switches are Universal, and my understanding is that they don't care about LAN or IP Base until you enable a function that falls in the IP Base domain. Then I have to call Cisco Licensing.For these switches, LAN Base is fine, based on the boot message, I feel the real problem is 122-55 versus 150-1 in the stack. So.. the question is: Do I downgrade the 48 port to match what we have in our environment, and what is on the 24 port switch. Or... Upgrade the 24 port switch to match the 48 port switch and have an installation that is not consistent with our environment? I do have two more edge closets to install with this purchase of 3750X 48 port switches.

View 1 Replies View RelatedCisco Switching/Routing :: 3750x Switches / 32 Loop Back Responding As A Broadcast?
Jun 7, 2012I have a bunch of 3750x switches that each have a 10 gig routed link back to a central 4507 (loopback = 172.30.255.255).We carved up a /24 (of course, the /24 doesn't really exist except in our address tracking spreadsheet) into a bunch of /30's for routed WAN links and /32's for loopback addresses.We started on the low end for /30 subnets (ie 172.30.255.0/30, 172.30.255.4/30, etc.).We started at the high end for the /32 loopbacks (ie 172.30.255.255/32, 172.30.255.254/32, etc.)
Well, when I try pinging 172.30.255.255 from the access layer 3750x switches, the 3750x seems to be treating it as a broadcast ping where it lists each member that responds instead of the regular !!!!! response (this makes think something is odd with the 3750x). Of course, only one member responds (the core). But even the core seems to respond with the other end of the /30 instead of the actual /32 loopback (which makes me think something is odd in the core). I could have sworn that I've setup similar topologies without problems (ie, using 10.0.0.0/32, 10.255.255.255/32, etc as loopbacks) and as long as the mask is a /32, it should work.Also, I can ping/ssh to that loopback if my laptop is on a directly connected subnet. But I can't do it from any of the 3750x switches (which are also directly connected).I've double checked for overlapping subnets, but nope. I don't see any. Routing looks fine. The actual /32 is being propagated everywhere properly.

The Ciscos are all sending slow LACP updates, the Junipers are sending fast LACP updates (but the Cisco they connect with is responding with slow LACP updates).
I have a couple of questions:
1) what are the pros and cons of slow vs fast updates? my research has led me to the conclusion that fast updates are better for network resiliency as long as you have plenty of bandwidth overhead (which I do at the moment). is there anything to add to this conclusion?
2) is there any way to configure the Cisco 3750s for fast updates?
Cisco Switching/Routing :: Configuring 4507R For LACP And Trunking?
Apr 3, 2008We're trying to configure our Cisco 4507 (Supervisor Engine IV) to allow a new Dell server with a pair of Broadcom 5708 GigE NIC's to aggregate its NIC's to give us a 2gbps link to the switch.
So far we seem to have got the team and LACP up and enabled, but the adaptor that the Broadcom Admin Util creates for the team is only showing a 1gbps connection where I would have expected it to show as 2gbps.
The individual NICs show as connected at 1gbps. We're not Cisco experts so are struggling on how to get the 2 NICs to aggregate.
On the server side we've done nothing other than create a team using 802.3ad LINk Aggregation using LACP.
This is what I think the relevent output from "sho conf" is, more available if needed.
