Cisco Switching/Routing :: Replacing Two 3750 (stacked) With 3750X
Jun 3, 2013
I was wondering what general steps might be taken in order to "replace two(2) 3750 (stacked) with one (1) 3750X - Server Access". General steps and what I might have to do configuration wise. I know i'm copy pasting the existing configs into the new switch, but are there any caveats?

I have two 3750x stacked switches , both with the latest firmware on them. I enter the configuration onto one switch and it obviously copies over onto the other switch. 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.

Im trying to stack 2 3750E-24PD-S and 2 3750X-12S-S. The 2 3750E finds eachother and stacks with one master as they should. The problem is that and the 3750X does the exact same thing instead of joining the 3750E stack.Both runs the same IOS (c3750e-ipbasek9-mz.122-58.SE2).The stackingcables are connected like following atm (I tried booting up the switches one at a time and all at once, no difference in the result).

I have two 3750X in a stack. Each 3750X has one 10Gb uplink to primary core1 and one 1Gb uplink to backup core2 configured in 2 etherchannel groups. The member switch has bad ports, so I need to replace it. I have spare 3750X unit. Is it possible to connect the spare unit to the stack and then move the RJ-45 cables from the member with bad ports to the new member? That way I can minimize servers downtime to just a few seconds..If that would work, then the last step would be to move the 10Gb networking module from old member to the new one, as well as the secondary PSU. Is it doable? Also according to the documentation, all I need to add new member is matching IOS version, correct?

I have two 3750G switches stacked together however it's not in a full ring configuration:
Stack Ring Speed : 16G
Stack Ring Configuration: Half
Stack Ring Protocol : StackWise
And as shown below it's obvious which cable is not working:
show switch neighbors
Switch # Port 1 Port 2
-------- ------ ------
1 2 None
2 None 1
It's not flapping - it's like the cable isn't there at all. I'm going to try reseating the cable in there and perhaps an all out replacement if necessary. My question - is there any threat of a reboot of the switch stack or of partitioning of the switch stack by trying to get the 2nd cable working?

We have two 3750-x stacked switches with IP base license. We need to upgrade them to IP services license. I read some where that it is possible to install IP serivces license to only management switch and no need to purchase/install same license to other switches on the stack. But, I could not find/recall where I read it and as far as I know it was not official cisco documentation.

In my MDF I have a 4stack of the WS-3750-48P switches. Is it possible to replace one with a C3750X48PF-S with out causing any issues? Or would it be better to just have 3 stacked and trunk this one to the core 4506. Keeping in mind I bought this one to expand the port number for one of our remote offices.. I would hate to send them the gig switch when there isn't as much usage..Besides if I can get my CFO on this switch he might authorize me to replace the rest... He is reticent to believe it makes really all that much of a difference.

I have the task of replicating the router config on a 3825 router on a 3750 switch. Reason is we are taking out the router and replacing it with the switch to make use of the router for other functions.
Below is main part of the router config:
!
ip source-route
ip cef
!
!
multilink bundle-name authenticated
!
license udi pid CISCO3825 sn FCZxxxxxxx
!
vlan internal allocation policy ascending
[code].....
The 3750 switch I have runs C3750E-UNIVERSALK9-M, Version 12.2(55)SE3 on a LAN BASE license.
The first thing I have done is to order for a license upgrade to IP BASE which would give the support for OSPF routing.I do not see much of an issue with the Interface configs, however, I am not too sure about replicating the routing config on the switch.
My question is can I run the commands as shown for the OSPF routing on the switch? If not, can I get suggestions on how best to set this up on the switch?

The stackwise marketing info states that when a failed member is replaced with a new switch the replacement switch "gets the exact configuration of the old device". I would figure it takes a little more than just disconnecting and connecting a new switch in the same spot on the stack. doing this with 3750 family switches? What are the steps to prepare the stack for a new member? what steps need to be taken on the replacement switch before insertion into the stack to make sure it gets configured like the unit it was replacing?

We have a stack of switches that is at the max number of members allowed in the stack. Problem is we are running out of port density and need to add more ports. So instead of adding a whole new stack I would rather replace 2 of the 24-port swicthes with 48-port switches.
If the two 24-port swicthes we are removing are stack members and neither of them are the stack master, I should be able to replace the 24-port switches with the 48-port switches without bringing the master offline? If the new 48-port switches are running the same IOS version as the current 24-port swicthes, they should add themselves to the stack?Would I have to tell the new 48-port swicthes what switch numbers they are replacing in order for them to be added to the stack since we are at the max number of members?Also since the 48-port swicthes are replacing 24-port switches will the master give the 48-port switches the configuration for only the 24-ports?

I've a situation where I need to add a new 3750x to a existing stack of 3750. [code] When I tried to stack them together, I get a version mismatch error. Is this because of the difference in SW Image? What are my options next ? My ultimate goal is to make the new switch stack correctly with the exisitng switches.

I am getting a version mismatch when adding the following 3750X to the 3750 stack:
WS-C3750X-48 12.2(55)SE3 C3750E-UNIVERSALK9-M
2 0 WS-C3750-24TS 12.2(25)SEA C3750-I9K91-M
Can I upgrade the 3750's to be able to correct this? Which version does this require?

if I read the Datasheet of Catalyst 3750X-Series-Switches it is possible to connect a new X-Switch to an existing and old Catalyst 3750-Series Stack.What kind of requirements are needed? Only same IOS-Version in the hole Stack and if possible same Feature-Set? .... like in a normal NOT mixed Stack?

I recently added a 3750X-24P-L into a stack of 3750V2 switches. I did so by getting the temporary upgrade license from LAN Base to IP Services; I added the switch no problem. I now have the permanent license and I was wondering if I could install the permanent license without having to remove the switch from the stack. I tried a license install but that failed. The switch is not currently the master but I figured I might promote it and then try the install.

If we have 3 stacked 3750s# running Layer 3. Do we need license for every switch? or is it one license for the 3 switches? Also is the license associated with the MAC address of a specific switch? What i# am trying to know also, is if we have to install one license and it is associated# with one MAC and this switch failed.. will the Layer 3 be broken?

I currently have a stack of 3750G switches with a cross stack etherchannel connected to a 3750E stack in the distribution layer.The 3750G stack is running 15.0-2SE IP Base. I began noticing the Mac flap issue when I was Re-enabling dot1x on the switchports. As first I thought dot1x maybe have contributed to this so I removed it from the stack temporarily.I am still seeing Mac flap logs usually when a machine reboots or re-connects back to the network. These are all wired desktops.I started looking at the etherchannel configuration which is using LACP. The 3750E stack looks fine with all ports in mode active. On the problematic 3750G stack I noticed 3 of the ports in the etherchannel set to mode active and 1 port set to mode passive. The port shows as bundled but I can't imagine this is ok.The only other difference on this one port is there is no mls qos commands like on the other 3 interfaces in the port channel.I mainly need to know what the Mac flapping is about. Whether it is a bug or related to the current etherchannel configuration.

I have a customer who just bought a pair of N5K and wanted to replace his current HP E3800 as Core. He wants to use the 4 x stacked HP E3800 connect back to the N5K. Will I be able to utilize VPC through a bundled 2 or 4 x 10G (40G) connection (10 or 20G on 1 switch, and 10 or 20G on another switch) from the stacked HP E3800s to the N5548s? I know you can do that with Cisco 3750s.

How many Switches can be stacked with WS-C2960S-48FPD-L at a max..
As per my Knowledge it is 4 and as below..
Switch 1 to Switch 2
Switch 2 to Switch 3
Switch 3 to Switch 4
Switch 4 to Switch 1
If yes then, is it mandatory to do the "Switch 4 to Switch 1" stack. why am I asking this is because this stack requires a long cable and the cable which comes with the Switch is only 0.5M.

I have a 4 member stack of 3750's. We would like to take advantage of wccp and we understand that we will need to upgrade our switch licensing from IPBase to IPServices. My question is do we need to pay for a license for each member in the stack or does one IPServices license upgrade cover the whole stack?

My company is beginning to have a lot of sites were we are stacking 3 to 4 C2960S-48 switche.This is making "show running-config" very very long because of the 4 x 48 interfaces.I can’t find a CLI command that show me the running-config of a ranges of interfaces. If I for example would like to see running-config for switch 3 (interfaces 3/0/1-52)The Show Running-config will show all the interfaces (for the two first swtiche = 104 interfaces), which take a time before I reach to switch 3.I miss a CLI command like: show Running-config switch 3, or module 3, or show running-config interface range x/x/x-x ?I’m well aware of the CLI command show running-config interface x/x/x, but this will only show me one interface.

We're running two 5508 WLCs running 7.0.235.3 pushing out 7 WLANs. They are both live. Each WLC is connected to the same stack of 3750G running 12.2(44)SE6 via Etherchannels.I'm getting tons of MAC flapping errors similar to this:9373213: Feb 19 10:53:54.564 CST: %SW_MATM-4-MACFLAP_NOTIF: Host 843a.4b3c.4cec in vlan 752 is flapping between port Po12 and port Po11Each portchannel consists of ports on each of the two switches in the 3750 stack. Only VLAN 752 shows the flapping activity. LAG is enabled on the each of the WLCs. The portchannel and interface configs are identical, minus the channel-group command of course.Maybe completely unrelated....looking at CDP neighbors from the switch is incorrect:
WLC1 Gig 2/0/44 157 H AIR-CT550 Gig 0/0/1
WLC1 Gig 1/0/21 157 H AIR-CT550 Gig 0/0/2
WLC1 Gig 1/0/20 157 H AIR-CT550 Gig 0/0/3

How to replace a defective redundant sup. I read on several articles that inserting new redundant sup should not be an issue as the active sup will always send its configuation to the standby. We are running SSO on the Sup720. Should I switch it to RPR before I install the redundant sup? I read a case wherein they switched it to RPR from SSO before inserting the new redundant sup. My concern is the IOS mismatch since Cisco doesn't always send the same IOS on RMAs.What I am planning is this.
1. Save/Backup configuration
2. Remove the redundant sup on slot 8 (since it is a 6513)
3. Insert the new redundant sup on slot 8.
4. Check if all the configurations were synced from slot 7 to slot 8.
5. Copy the IOS from sup-bootflash to slavesup-bootflash. (if the IOS are not the same)
6. Check show bootvar to see if the boot variables are correct.
7. If bootvar is the same, reload slot 8 to boot the new IOS.
Is this a good plan or am I missing something? I am worried with this document if the redundant sup has a different software. If i insert the card in slot8, according to Cisco, it will revert to RPR. If slot 8 boots and it has a different OS, then slot 7 will switch to RPR even if it's active. Would I still be able to access the slavesup-bootflash of slot 8? Is it going to boot 100%? I read that doing a force switchover will cause a flip and RPR would cause the line cards to reinitialize and I don't want that. Well I am not going to do a force switchover since i want slot7 to be active and retain slot 8 as hot.

I am replacing a faulty sup720 on a 6513. It s the backup/hot not the active sup. It has the same IOS on it. Is it correct that all I need to do is remove the faulty and replace it with the new sup and do a wr mem? Fromwat I have read their should be no down time all connectivity should remain stable?

I'm due to replace a stack of 2 x 3750 switches very soon with 2 x 3750Gs. These 2 current switches are the VTP server for a small domain. I have put the config on the new switches switches and I made it a server and used the same VTP domain and password etc and got the VLAN info ported over.Now I did this a while back and noticed the switches are in transparent mode with a revision number of 0, I need to set this back to server and swap the switches out but the revision will be lower than the client switches (around rev 200), what do I need to do?

I decided recently to switch out our border router (1841 12.4 advsecurity) with a shiny new 1941 (15.2 SEC/K9) as the CPU upgrade was needed.The core below acts as a VPN end point to various other remote offices we have, all of which have a similar network design at each end (and all entirely managed by me). All of these are still running 1841's with 12.4 advsecurity on them as well. These are all GRE tunnels with ipsec procection on them (not crypto maps). [code]
Everything else works fine (NAT, route-maps etc), it's just these IPSEC/isakmp tunnels that are not playing ballIt's definitely not an ARP issue (all arps were cleared) and ICMP appears to work fine (ie, I can ping the remote tunnel's public IP endpoint from the core using the loopback for that tunnel as the source). I am suspecting it's something strange with the stateful firewall config, but I did try and apply ipsec and isakmp-msft to the ip inspect list, with no success.

I have a 2801 router that I am replacing with a 2911. I know the ports on the 2911 are Gigabits and the 2801 are Fe. I read where the IOS would not support backup and restore on each other . I am attaching a show ver on both routers. I need to know if backup and restore would work and or what other changes would need to get done.

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?

I have a supervisor blade, (VS-S720-10G-3C), in a 6513 that is faulty and needs replaced. Do I need to replace the IOS on the new supervisor blade to make sure it is the same as the IOS image that is on the Active supervisor module, or will it synchronize automatically?
In the synchronization process, the active supervisor engine checks the standby supervisor engine run-time image to make sure that it matches its own run-time image. The active supervisor engine checks three conditions:
#
•If it needs to copy its boot image to the standby supervisor engine
#
•If the standby supervisor engine bootstring needs to be changed
#
•If the standby supervisor engine needs to be reset
I was reading the above documentation that mentioned the active supervisor should copy the image if it detects a newly installed standby supervisor blade with a different image, is this correct or was it referring to synchronizing the configuration file?
