Cisco Switching/Routing :: Swap With Backup Switch WS-2950T
Jan 8, 2013
my 2970 having intermittent problem. i would like to swap with my backup switch WS-2950T. when i try to configure the 2950 following the 2970 config, i unable to perform this command "switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q". does 2950T does not support this command??
I am trying to update a switch I bought to the latest IOS using the Cisco Network Assistant but the it is failing becasue it's saying I dont have the space.
In the CLI I get,
Switch#dir all-filesystemsDirectory of flash:/ 2 -rwx 109 Mar 01 1993 00:01:47 +00:00 info 3 -rwx 270 Jan 01 1970 00:01:37 +00:00 env_vars 7 -rwx 3081999 Mar 01 1993 00:03:23 +00:00 c2950-
If i replace a card of the same type in the same slot will I lose the configuration for that card or does it live in the backplane of the device?Is there any special command I need to run to replace the card or can i shutdown the 4507r-e and just swap out the blade?
Had a switch die over the weekend, a c3560, per our normal procedure I pulled the hardware put a very basic config on it(vlans, portchannel, uplink ports, ip of management vlan, con and vty security, snmp, enable secret, and hostname). Then I use solarwinds orion to upload a copy of the old config to bring the switch back to the same state as the one that failed. Its a system that has worked for us 3 or 4 times in the past. But this time when the base config was on the box it couldnt ping across the network.I have tried clearing the arp cache and the dynamic mac tables, i verified the routing tables and even removed the 10.1.185.128/27 route and re-added it, saw the routing update go across to the other 65k, tried bouncing the edge switch(i cant bounce the 65k's), took down the po between the edge and 65k.
I configure HSRP on Router 2951 as a primary router, and Router 2811 as backup router. But when I am switching off my Primary router the backup router is taking 2 mins to take over form primary router.
My company uses Cisco 891's in replacement of the 1811 where we would have DBU used via an external modem and a triggered time of 3 minutes after a primary connection failure was identified. In testing the 891 in a Layer 2 failure environment, it is within milliseconds that the v.92 port is engaging after the layer 2 failure. Has anyone been able to get it to attempt at a more than millisecond rate?
Redacted config from router: ip sla 1 icmp-echo <%= probeIP1 %> source-interface GigabitEthernet0
how to backup the configuration of ACS 5.3 then restore it on the secondary ACS 5.3 Appliance in order to save time without configure the 2nd Appliance?
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 have 2960G that in rommon status.I need that the switch work in 0x2102 (regular mode).I don't have a backup to configutratuio in my PC.I do wr before the switch go to rommon (startup config).What to do in order to the switch will be in 0x2102 (regular mode) with the same configuration( before the switch go to rommon)?
We backup the running config on the 6509 does it also backup the vlan.dat as well?I tried command dir/all and just dir but did not see the vlan.dat listed
I need to backup my ASA 5505 configuration and restore it to default, then I'll configure manually the new config, but if something doesn't work I want to restore the backup made before.
I tried the "copy run tftp" command, and it always answers the same: Result of the command: "copy run tftp" [code] I read everywhere its supossed to prompt asking me tftp server address and file name.
I have a small doubt with Nexus 7k,5K,2k & 1K.We want to backup the running config to my desktop through tftp.When i tried to backup from Nexus switches showing like below Nexus 7K. [code]
It's showing two choices which one I have to follow "copy running-config startup-config" or "copy running-config startup-config Vdc-all". [code]
It's showing two choices which one I have to follow "copy running-config startup-config" or "copy running-config startup-config fabric"
It's showing three choices which one I have to follow "copy running-config startup-config" or "copy running-config startup-config fabric" or "copy running-config startup-config vdc-all". [code]
What is meaning backup on HSRP statas?There are 5 vlans.The other four vlans aren't backup status.Only one of five vlans display messeages. When I reload Catalyst3750E-1,debug log. [code]
Just purchased a SG300-52 and am trying to upgrade the firmware to 1.1.2 but cannot get the Upgrade/Backup Firmware Language page to load in the web browser interface. I have tried IE 8 and 9, Firefox 3.16 and 10.02, and Chrome from Windows 7 and XP Pro systems also tried FF and Chrome from Ubuntu system. The page just never loads - doesn't show anything.The same is true of the Download/Backup/Configuration/Log page. The other links under Administration > File Management seem to work fine.
how to configure a backup route to the internet. My client has 2 ISP and basically they want to use 1 ISP and in case the ISP fails, use the other one as backup route to the internet.
The problem I’m facing is that each ISP is plugged to a dedicated ASA 5510, so 1 ISP in one firewall and 1 in the other. Both ASA are plugged to an internal network in a dedicated VLAN with a L3 switch and that L3 switch manages the internal network.
My question is, how can I tell my switch to use ASA1 to go out to the internet and in case the ASA 1 OR THE LINK TO INTERNET used by ASA 1 fails, use ASA 2? It would be great if I can send traffic to the internet thru both connections at the same time. Also, I know the ASA has High Availability configuration, but that applies only if both licenses in the devices are the same and I have a mismatch with the SVPN license, and also I don't know if with my current topology I can use the High Availability model, so I think I can’t use that option and the solution must be applied in the L3 switch, but I don’t know how to tell it to use ASA1 and if failure of the device or the outside interface plugged to ISP 1, then use ASA2. Besides, I would like to know how to optimize this config to do the switch between internet connections seamless to the users if possible (there are VoIP calls on this floor, so I don't want to drop the calls).
use PAGP as backup for wireless link with another wireless link.
__WiFi________ PC-------Switch 1 Switch2---------- PC __WiFi________
We are using 2960 series and from this reason we cant use L3 PAGP I dont know how is PAGP working. If it is checkung port status (UP/Down) or there are some specific L2 packet between etherchannel ports in group?
Here's my problem. I'm going to be using Cisco 1941 routers at a bunch of remote sites. All of these sites have 2 comm paths out. Some of them have 2 IP/VHF radios and some have 1 IP/VHF radio and a copper link using Patton ethernet extenders. From the VHF radios the data hit our MPLS network back to our HQ and the sites with copper go directly back to our HQ. Everything ends up at a Cisco 4948 switch. The problem I'm having is that I want the routers at the remote site to use one ethernet port (G0/0) as the primary and the other (G0/1) as the backup interface. I've tried the backup interface command but the problem is that depending on where an outage occurs the ethernet link to either the radio or Patton stays up so it never switches over. We're using OSPF as our routing protocol and I'm sure there's something that can be done with it but I'm not sure what.
I thought I saw a post/question in regards to "how to" configure a Broadband backup for a MPLS circuit.. What I am trying to do is use a cable/dsl/ broadband (secondary) connection as a backup to a MPLS circuit (primary). I have EIGRP and BGP configured on both the branch endpoint and the tunnel headend. The tunnel is used by the interface that connects to the secondary circuit. The branch location router is a 1841 and the "headend" tunnel router is a 3825. I am wondering about the configuration/syntax of a "weight" or static route that can be used to have data flow over the tunnel when the MPLS circuit goes down - and then switch back to the MPLS circuit when it comes back on line.
I'm trying to configure scp for secure configuration backup. I've configured the SCP server with an account and password but, I keep getting the no such file or directory error

I need 10gigbit uplink for this switch. What are the other devices that i need order along with this device.And what is the diff between X2-10GB-LR= and CVR-X2-SFP.if i take CVR-X2-SFP, in future how can i upgrade from one gig to 10 gig?for current use i need 10gig support required. so what are all the other devices that i need to order.Fiber multimode and distance 15Mt only.
i have an issue to connect a trunk between cisco switch and extreme switch i have many vlans that i want to cross via a link between cisco 3750 switch and a Extreme Alpine 3800 switch
I have two 3750-X configured to be a stack and I am planning to re-rack these somewhere else. What I would like to know is what are the effects of having the master switch itself lose power? Does it immediately just make the member take over master (there should be no election since there are only 2 switches??) and there would be no loss of connectivity?
I have a Catalyst 4006 switch in production and a spare switch of same model. I have to quickly copy the configuration from production switch to spare switch (both L2 and L3 configurations) How do I do that?
I am little confused of how to take bootloader backup of cisco 6506 switch with WS-C6506-1300A CHASSIS and WS-X6K-SUP2-GE sup I am pesting a the part of sh run to show you the image files for the switch.
We currently have 3* offices located in London, Reading and Oxford which have a (ISP) VPLS service to interconnect all sites.I am using RIPv2 for intersite routing between all offices. We plan on implementing a backup circuit at the Oxford office for resiliency.There are 2* Core 4500 Switches, Core 1 is uplinked to the Primary circuit and Core 2 will be uplinked to the Backup circuit.At the moment Core 2 learns all of its routes from Core 1.My question is, if the Primary circuit goes down, how do we get the Routing on the Core Switches to than point out of the backup circuit?
I have two 3750 switch.switch A(main) and switch B is connected by OFC but i have another wireless link for backup.Now if OFC goes down then i manually connect wireless link with switch B for this reasons i am faceing a lot of problem. I want without any changing of cable if my primary link goes down then my backup link automaticaly goes up and vice versa .
Switch-A port gi1/0/9 and Switch-B port gi1/0/9 is connect by OFC Switch-A port gi1/0/8 and Switch-B port gi1/0/8 is connect by Wireless link (backup) i attach my network diagram kindly find the attachment file.
