I have a question about RSPAN, is this feature only supported on 6500 and 4500 switchs?
we have 2 3560 switches and want to use RSPAN to monitor different source ports.I checked thorugh the cisco feature navigator and the IOS we have on 3560 has the RSPAN fature listed in them.
We are trying to configure RSPAN at one of our sites in order to record voice calls using CallRex. We have it working successfully at another site using RSPAN (smaller site with 4x 3560 PoE switches), but when trying to set it up at this site, it causes "instability" for the voice network to say the least (some phones display one-way audio, UCM down message on the phone...not good). The calls are actually recording successfully on the CallRex server, but we cannot leave the RSPAN config in place due to the issues it causes. As soon as the RSPAN commands are removed, everything behaves normally. Here is the relevent config:
EDGE Switch 1 (Cisco 2960-48LPS):
vlan 210
name CALL-RECORDING
remote-span
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1
[code]....
The config is pretty stright-forward, but as mentioned above, is causing major problems when turned up.CPU / memory levels are normal. Nothing shows up in the sh log on either the Edge or Core switches.
We have Nexus 7009 switch and want to configure the span session
We are using F2 and M2 card both are in seperate differeent VDC.And out server is connected to M2 card on eth 4/6 and want to monitor the traffic from vlan 161Which is made on F2 card.
Connectivity is like this.
Nexus 1 Nexus2
Slot 3: F2 card Slot 3 : F2 card
Slot 3: M2 card Slot 3 : M2 card

Our network feels slow and trying to find the best way to investigate this properly. We have Cisco chassis 4500 with mix of 3560/2950 Edge switches 1GB backbones and WLC/WCS in place. The network is broken into multiple V LANS and IOS on our switches haven't been updated in 3-4 years.
On a wireless laptop (G) with get throughput of 1-2MB/s transfer speed with usually 10 clients per AP and LAN we get anywhere between 7-15 MB/s transfer. Using wire shark on a wireless laptop we see a lot broadcast traffic from other clients and the same for LAN. What is the best way to troubleshoot performance issues on the network and where do I start?
My actual Scenario
1 x 4500 and 1 x 3560?They are gateways of 8 Vlans?They are doing HSRP in each of those Vlans?The 4500 is the Active?There is a DHCP Pool for each of those Vlans on both gateways using "ip dhcp excluded-address" I ensured that the range of provided ips by each DHCP server will not be overlapped Obs.: Reducing the lease time, I ended with the calls bringing related problems.
OK, every thing is blue, every thing is fine.But the network diagram is realy complex(41 switchs, 89 uplinks), and depending of how is the network flow, one or other server answer first or latter.
For many reasons I would like that the secondary DHCP server would answer only if the primary DHCP server goes down.To me, the bigger reason is that DHCP database would be only in one DHCP server.But there is other reasons.
I passed by many frustrated solutions:Try to force a delay on the answer on one of the servers. - Impossible.Try to disable DHCP server, and, using EEM, enable it only if router became active in HSRP. - I couldn't do It.
What I'm thinking now is use the HSRP resource to resolve it.On both routers I would put a "ip helper-address" pointing to an Virtual_HSRP_IP.And depending on which router is the active, him will answer the request.
My first doubt is:Would it work?The second doubt is:Could I use the same Virtual_HSRP_IP that exists on that Vlan(see example 1),or I would need to point it to a Virtual_HSRP_IP in a different Vlan(see example 2)?
Example 1
-----------------------------------
| 4500 |
-----------------------------------
interface Vlan1
ip address 10.10.0.2 255.255.0.0
ip helper-address 10.10.0.1

We have 3 layer LAN architecture, layer 1 of 6500(IP routing), layer 2 of 4500(L2 switch only), layer 3 of 2960(L2 Switch)In a Single (2960 and 4500) Switch Port Avaya IP phone and PC are connected.Now, the requirement is that, Qos need to be configured for Voice traffic and Data traffic should be in default class of service.We plan to use COS value in Switch 4500 and 2960. We made a sample configuration as below
### For 4500 Switch
class-map match-all VOIP-Access-2MB
match cos 3 5
class-map match-all VOIP-Uplink-20MB
match cos 3 5
[code].....
check these configurations are correct as per standard and if there is any other method of configuration?What need to be configured in L3 Switch(6500)??In 2960, it doesn't support ingress QoS, what impact it will make when compare to 4500? do users experiance any difference?
I have a design for my infrastructure and i'm thinking to choose 4 or 5, or more, 2960 series in a stack mode instead of one 4500 series?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm thinking about using a 3750 stacking around 4 or 5 switches intead of using one 4500 series switch.
1-My first argument was concerning the budget (one 4500 instead of four or five 3750 in stack mode) ---- Here i think 4 or 5 stacked 3750 is cheap than one 4500
2- My second argument was about harware redundancing that i don't have with one 4500 and that i have with stack mode ----Here i have more hardware redundancing with 3750
3- The bug that we notice today in 2960 and 3750 and not in 4500
4- Simple to manage a 4500 compare to 3750 stack design
5- I was looking also for the one with best backplane ----Here i didn't have any infos concerning the best backplane between 4 or 5 stack 3750 and a 4500.
6- I'm also looking for power redundancing.
We have the following design in mind
3750 Stack (Voice gateway for phones configured on the 3750 and has a VPC nexus)

Is it possible to have ether-channel across 2 switches? As an example, having a server with 2 ports connect, 1 port to Switch-A and the other to Switch-B and then use those two links on the sepatate switches but to the same server to form an Etherchannel.
The Switch-A and Switch-B are 3560 series

Was building a small network in Cisco Packet Tracer and ran in to an issue. I have 4 routers running OSPF, and off one of the routers I have 5 3560 Multilayer switches. The router that the switches hang off of, I have a sub-interface with dot1q encapsulation, set for vlan 10 and an IP Address. 10.14.16.1/24. The switches have interface vlan 10 configures, and have IPs in the same subnet. From that router, I can ping/telnet to all the switches without issue. My problem arises when I try and reach those switches from any other router. OSPF is set to redistribute static and connected subnets.The routing table is populated correctly on all the routers. When I ping and trace the packet, it looks like it makes it all the way to the respective switch, but the packet never makes it back. I've played with the default route on the switches to no avail. Am I trying to implement this incorrectly, or am I just missing something?

View 3 Replies View Relatedthe phone connects to the 3750-A access layer switch (VTP mode client) which connects to the nexus 5596 (The nexus is the layer 3 device and set to vtp mode server) and finally we have a Voice recorder that connects to another access layer 3750-B switch.(VTP mode client)
For voice recording I need to setup RSPAN and the nexus5596 does not support RSPAN will the following have any impact on the nexus
IF I move the 3750-B to VTP server mode and run the command remote span on the VLan I need to Rspan its going to update the VTP data base in short it will update the vlan.dat file for all the switch in that VTP domain.
AS the vtp update reaches the nexus saying there is a change (keeping in mind the nexus does not support rspan not sure hows its going to handle that request and how its going to update its vlan.dat file)
Is it going to incremment the VTP revision number? can it crash the vlan.dat file on the nexus ? or do nothing and ignore the update and stop the update from proceeding to the 3750 A switch?
OSPF normally only comes with IPservices image and not IP Base image. The 3560-C series data sheet says that it only suport IP Base image, yet it mentions that support for OSPF in included. Are there any restictions in the OSPF support?.

What is the best way to accomplish this with the least amount of downtime for the downstream switches.On the 3560's, i plan setting up port-channels once HA is setup on the 5k's.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have 7 3560's in 7 different locations connected to our providor for wan access. Our provider has given us a copper cable at each point and we have connected it directly to our 3560 switch at each location. Each port is configured the same way at each location. Each switch is running eigrp.All of the switch ports on each switch are configured as a trunk and vlan 299 had the ip address for the eigrp connection: [code] This setup is working as each switch see's all of the other switches as an eigrp neighbor. We have also made sure that the switch at our head office has spanning tree priority for vlan 299.
So the problem is, if there is a change in the topology at one of the locations it usually causes one or more of the other connections to go down for some reason. We just cannot pinpoint what is causing this change. There are no log's or anything other than an eigrp hold time expired message.?
We have a couple of Cisco switches and connected a (Windows 7) laptop to one of them and it gets its IP address from a DHCP server.I can now ping the IP from all of the switches, no problem, also not when I log on to the core switch in the same VLAN as both notebooks. But from my (Windows 7) laptop, which is in the same VLAN as the target laptop, I cannot ping it.
I checked, default gateway is good on both sides, as are DNS servers.
Target notebook ---- Catalyst 3560 V2 switch === Core Catalyst 3750 switch (stack) === Catalyst 3560G switch --- My notebook
For some special arrangement, I would like to connect 2 access ports from a 3550 switch to 3560 switch.1 port for vlan 200, another port for vlan 201.Will this introduce bad thing to the switches?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Cisco 3560 connected via fiber to a Nortel 1612G. The connection is up/up, the V LAN's on the switch work as needed, but I can not ping the switch from the Nortel, and as a result I can not remote into the Cisco for management. I see in the configuration for the trunk that it is configured for a native v LAN, but I don't see it defined which v LAN's are allowed, could this be the issue? I will provide some of the config information for the Cisco side, I understand the issue may be on the Nortel end but if the Cisco part looks OK?
Port config for the trunk:

I dont understand what is the problem, actually i have added the command power inline never on the port and the problem is solved, but we haven´t changed configuration.
We have two Cisco switches with one 3560 and one 3750 we have created a new Vlan 4 with IP 10.1.3.x 255.255.255.0 - no shut then assigne to gi 2/0/46 on the 3560 Vlan 4 ip address 10.1.3.x 255.255.255.0 no shut then assign to FA0/45. All interfaces are up up along with the Vlan up up, we can ping the local IP address bu not able to pint the other switch.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe are in the process of rolling out iPads to our offices. As part of this implementation, we need to print from the iPads to our network printers. Our network printers are mostly HP and Xerox and do not have native Apple AirPrint capabilities. As such, we have been using the FingerPrint software to share out the network printers as Apple AirPrint printers. We have a mixture of switches at our offices. Most offices utilize a 3550 PoE switch. In these offices the AirPrint traffic is being transferred successfully and everything works great. In the offices which are using 3560 PoE switches, the traffic is never seen at the iPads. We are using EnGenius EAP300 access points connected into the Cisco switches to provide wireless access to the iPads. Both 3550 and 3560 switches are running iOS 12.2(25). What might be stopping/blocking the AirPrint traffic on the 3560 switches?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a couple of 3560 switches running c3560-advipservicesk9-mz.122-44 and they are randomly experiencing the following:
- The switch locks up with no preceding error message in the log (I am forwarding syslog to Splunk).
- Upon reboot, the switch goes through the normal startup sequence with no error messages, then for some reason reloads the flash and starts all over again. (refer to doc)
This could happen after days or weeks. Sometimes they will go through two of these reloads on boot and be fine for awhile, and other times they will be stuck in the loop infinitely. I am using this same image with all of our 3560s, but am only having this issue with two of them.
I have 3 3560 switches which are configured with trunks between them. They run vlan 10, 11 & 12. I have a 'core' switch (switch 1) of these 3 to which an MPLS router is connected on vlan12. I in addition have another switch hanging off the 'core' switch via a routed link (switch 4). I have EIGRP configured as a stub and as such the IP address on the routed link at the core switch end is of a /24 from v lan 1 on the other switch. This makes the route directly connected and therefore distributed via EIGRP stubs. Switch 1 is then exchanging routes with the MPLS router (via EIGRP).
The problem I have is that from any sub net on any switch (switch 1, 2 or 3) I can ping 192.168.13.1 (switch 4). When I try and ping switch 4 from over the MPLS I am unable to. If I trace to the switch I see it reaches the outside of the MPLS router, but is then unresponsive. The same applies if I try to ping switch 1 on 192.168.13.2. Any of the other IP addresses of switch 1 respond.
The MPLS network is a managed solution to which I have no access. I'm told that the MPLS provider is able to ping switch 1 & switch 4 on the 192.168.13.x addresses from a remote router (192.168.32.2). I have tried from a switch on the same L2 sub net (192.168.32.1) and I don't get a response.
From switch 4 I am able to ping the switch on 1 of it's interfaces (192.168.19.1), but not the interface I mentioned above 192.168.32.1. There are no access lists in place on the switches and no firewalls between the sites.
I 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?
I need to support a bunch of security cameras mounted on poles in our parking lot and an IP intercom system mounted on some gates. Because of environmental factors the switches at the poles need to be hardened and the spec from the vendor installing the gear is for GarretCom Industrial unmanaged switches which would make sense.
However when Information Security got wind of this scheme they (probably correctly) are requiring me to secure the ports that these unmanaged switches connect to. I have 2 choices: port security w/ MAC filtering or 802.1x. Because all the devices at the poles and gates support 802.1x and because I may need to go out there to troubleshoot stuff (and will invariably forget to add the MAC of whatever device I am using) I would prefer 802.1X multi-auth mode.
Problem:
When I ran a quick test on a test 3560 running some 15.0.1 code I could get a laptop to connect via 802.1x EAP-TLS successfully if it was directly connected but when I connected the same laptop via a dumb Netgear switch I confiscated from a luser it would not connect. The 3560 error said that the laptop never responded.
Question:
Before I spend a whole lot of time on this, is this something that should work? I don't see any practical use for the feature if it won't however the documentation I am using specifically mentions downstream hubs but I am not sure if they mean real hubs (which I don't think are even made anymore) or if they mean unmanaged switches.
I plan to try a couple of different unmanaged switches tomorrow and digg a little but I would like to know if I am wasting my time on something that will never work or if there is a little gotcha somewhere.
Does a portable RPS device either from Cisco or another manufacturer exists, that would allow you to move primary power for a switch without causing an outage? I realize that for the Catalyst 3560 for example, you can get an RPS 2300 or 675, but my understanding is that these are made for a more permanent installation, not to mention rather costly.
It looks like the RPS 675 is rather inexpensive after all, especially in the secondary market, but still rather large for toting around.
Is there a chart to show what modules will fit what swithches for fiber applications ex 2950 and 3560 switches
