I have a customer that wants to change their Nortel 5520 switches to a Cisco solution, and I wanted to ask what would be a good solution for this customer. presently they have 4 48 port PoE and 2 24 port PoE stackable 5520, and they are interested in redundant power supplies for the switches. I was thinking that the 3750 is good for this site.

I've just completed a port security project at a site on numerous Cisco switches and all works well, however they have 2 Nortel 5520 switches (which I left until the end) which they would like to lock down. I have logged a message on the Nortel forums and I have heard nothing for days. I just need to lock 2 ports down to the Mac address of 2 computers stopping any other computer being plugged in.

PC is Windows 7, with Intel 82579LM adapter
When PC was first attached to network, it could not ping gateway(switch). Turns out it was broadcasting for the gateway's MAC address, but never got a response. Tonnes of testing later, if I just change one number on the MAC address of the adapter, it receives a reply from the switch and can ping the gateway.
Why doesn't the native MAC address work?
Update: Just the vendor portion is the determining factor. As long as it starts with 2C-59-E5, it will not work. 2C-58-E5 will.
Update 2: Pinging anything in the same subnet works, just pinging the gateway interface of the switch doesn't happen. Tried on multiple drops, and there are other devices on those drops.
I'm trying to establish a site to site ipsec tunnel between an ASA 5520 and a Nortel Connectivity box. Despite trying a number of different transform sets and IKE setups it keeps failing at phase 1 with:
Information Exchange processing failed
Received an UN-encrypted INVALID_ID_INFO notify message dropping.
If the ports on a 5508 can only perform etherchannel(no LACP or PAGP), only on mode, how does a 5508 create a bundle with a nortel switch?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have 2 x Nortel 8600s (now Avaya) that are 6-7 years old. They have 96 1GB ports on each and we only use about 30 and the CPU average is around 2% and memory is 40% (256mb). Going into 8600s we have 8 x Nortel 5520 48port gig switches.
We want to replace the 8600s at some point and I wondered roughly what Cisco device would possible suit us. We are not after the best high end switches that we will never utilise, but ones that will aid us grow for the next 5 years.
I am planning to change the management IP (VLAN 5) to one of my Cisco 2950 switch, Here I am creating a new VLAN101 and assign new IP
When I am doing this VLAN 2 is going admin down.
We have 3 Nortel RG 9150 remote PBXs installed at a branch location, and they have been functioning well for years plugged into 3Com 4500 10/100 switches. These switches have a very basic configuration; nothing special. We are transitioning over to Cisco 2960 switches with very basic configurations. The problem is that when we plug the 9150 into the 2960 switch, the RX light flashes like it should, but the TX light only flickers intermittently. We cannot ping it from the switch or local router. Everything in this building is in VLAN 1. I've tried turning on full duplex on the 9150 and/or hard-setting the speed/duplex on the 2960 switch. The company that maintains our 9150 sent a guy out who was completely puzzled by this too. In some ways this seems too basic to be a problem, but it is. The twist on this problem is that the 3Com switch, which the 9150s are plugged into, is connected directly into the Cisco 2960 that I can't make them work on. Plug them into the 3Com, they work; move them upstream to the Cisco, and they stop, even after I reboot them.
Here are the port configs of the 3Com and Cisco switches.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have 2 3750 24 port fiber switches in a stack and we would like to change the member to become the master. Both are running the same IOS and they are alive on the network. I read that you can change the who becomes the master by setting the priority number higher on the member, which we did. However this requires a reboot of the member to take effect. Is there a way to force this without having to reboot? One other note, both switches in stack have a single gig connection that goes to the core (6500). One gig link is blocked due to spanning-tree and this is on the member that we want to become the master.
View 3 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:

Connecting a legacy Nortel switch (425/450/470/BPS) to a Nexus 7000 via gigabit fiber? I have a customer trying to do it and they say that the connection never comes up. The support on the Nortel stuff is long since expired, so Avaya is not being particularly useful. Apparently Cisco says the issue is "fast link pulse to the BayStack to determine the capabilities of the uplink and the BayStack is returning all zeros." I have not verified this and actually have not yet gotten my hands on the Nexus side of things

our company is going to change its´ ISP. The External Isp are going to obviously change too. We have an Active/Standby Firewall and we would like to make the change with at least connectivity downfall as possible. In our configuration we have nearly all features configured as in a normal Productive Firwall such as , NAT, Site-to Site VPN, Remote Access Webvpn, ACLs and also routing. I have looked up some information in this community and still I am not sure about the steps to be made so to reach our goal.
I have read that changing only the "names" from the old IP Range to the new Ip range would not really make the change. The old Ip range will still be configured in the features using the external Ip address. Therefore we have to first delete all the information (in the running config) connected to these Variables and then re insert them. My biggest worry is that this could be a little bit tricky during the implementation, if some config lines or objects could be left out during the deleting and inserting procedure.
How we could make this change with a low percentage of "copy and paste failures"? I was thinking about in changing the "names" to their new Ips and then afterwards reload the ASA. Will this workout? Primary ASA will be changed first with the secondary shutdown. ASA Firmware 8.2.2 (12).
it says that the cisco sg300-28 managed switch default system mode is Layer 2. but i want to change it to layer 3.
i can't get inside the "Console Interface Main Menu" where the switching from L2 to L3 will be done.
I have done the ff:
1. Upgraded firmware to 1.1.2.0 (latest)
2. Reset the switch to factory defaults.
3. The guide stated that in order to perform telnet to the switch, you need to enable it. So I logged in first in to the web GUI and enable telnet service.
4. I can now start telnet on the switch but I can't see the "Switch main menu".
All I can see are these lines from telnet:
User Name:cisco
Password:******
switchd5928c#
I just want to know how to get into the console interface main menu where these lines should appear so that i can change the system mode:
• System Configuration Menu
• Port Status
• Port Configuration
• System Mode
• Help
• Logout
