Cisco Switching/Routing :: VLAN Information Not Propagating Between Nexus 5K Switches?
Oct 2, 2012
I have 2 NEXUS switches in VPC. When I create/delete a VLAN gets updated in the same switch, but the VLAN information does not get propagated to the neighboring switch. Revision number remains the same even if I modify the VLAN. Had also tried changing the VTP status to transparent mode & reverting it to client mode but no luck.Have double confirmed on the VTP domain names & password. However the same setup in different location which works perfectly fine.

How to get a summary of netflow statistics on NX-OS? On IOS you could do sh ip cache flow which would show what I need? Can't find a similar command on the Nexus Platform.

I have 2 SG300 switches and all I want is to propagate VLAN info from one to other. I do not have computers with GVRP compliant NICs, so I dont want that auto registeration functionality on access ports. I want VLAN prop via trunks and switchport mode access on access ports just like VTP. I have read on cisco docs that this functionality is provided with GVRP Mode fixed, but there are only 2 modes that I can see on SG300 are Normal and Forbidden. Trunk configured correctly, gvrp is enabled globally and on port, ports are up and functional, tried different combinations of checking and unchecking boxes of dynmic vlan creation and enable registeration on both ends but no joy. When I create a vlan from one, it doesnt propogate to other.

I was reading a QoS walkthrough earlier to try to solve my problem and I noticed that in IOS, you can specify "match vlan" in a class map. This is not available in NX-OS. I'm not doing any routing on the 5K so I cannot match on ACL, and port where traffic is received is a trunk sharing other types of traffic I'd like to classify elsewise.
How can I match traffic on a per-VLAN basis?

I have a couple of Nexus 5ks that I want to put QOS on for the servers running behind it but also have voice running across it. Voice doesn't play well with jumbo frames so I'd like to put QOS only on the voice vlan.

I am working in my lab and I was adding a new L2/3 vlan
vlan 555
name test
int vlan 555
ip address 1.1.1.1/24
no shut
I have also ensured that this vlan is added to the port channel going to my Nexus5K's. I added the vlan to the 5K's and also ensured that vlan 555 is traversing the peer link. all is good there. I have also placed a device on a interface on the 2k as a access switchport on vlan 555
Here is my problem, the L3 interface will NOT come up on the 7K
LAB-DSW01# sh ip int brie
IP Interface Status for VRF "default"(1)
Interface IP Address Interface Status
Vlan555 1.1.1.1 protocol-down/link-down/admin-up
I have gone throug just about everything I can think of and I am still unable to get this L3 interface to come up. I have other L3 interfaces on this device that are configured exactly the sameway without any issue at all. All the existing interfaces are working properly, it's jut this new interface that I am trying to add.
I am running version 6.0.1 on the 7K and 5.2.1.N1.4 on the 5K.

you find attached my network architecture with 2 Nexus 7010 on core layer and 2 Nexus 5020 on distribution layer, each one with 1 N2148T fabric extender switch. PC-A1 and PC-A2 are connected to one N2148T, PC-B1 is connected to the other N2148T. Nexus-7000-1 is HSRP Active for all VLANs, Nexus-7000-2 is HSRP standby. PC-A1 and PC-A2 are connected to VLAN A, PC-B1 is connected to VLAN B. PC-A1 and PC-A2 have the same default gateway correspondent to IP HSRP on VLAN A. It happens that PC-A1 is able to ping PC-B1 while PC-A2 is unable to ping PC-B1. If I issue a traceroute from PC-A2 I see Nexus-7000-2’s physical IP address as the first hop even if Nexus-7000-2 is HSRP standby. After the first hop the traceroute is lost. If I shutdown Port-channel 20 on Nexus-5000-2, PC-A2 starts to ping PC-B1.I can’t understand what’s wrong in this architecture.

I am seeing an issue that after deleting/recreating one of the VDC in Nexus 7K, VLAN is not been able to be configured within the VDC although it is not actually a reserved VLAN. Could it be anything missing in the license installation? the version of the image is NX-OS 6.1.2
StorageVDC(config)# vlan 100
^
invalid vlans (reserved values) at '^' marker.

I have the need for private vlans in isolated mode to backup some hosts on a secured network. We are using Cisco Nexus 5020 with the fex 2148 for copper-ports - and I tried to implement this setup: [code]
The Cisco Nexus 2000 Fabric Extender does not support PVLANs over VLAN trunks used to connect to another switch. The PVLAN trunks are only used on inter-switch links but the FEX ports are only meant to connect to servers. Since it is not a valid configuration to have an isolated secondary VLAN as part of a Fabric Extender port configured as a VLAN trunk, all frames on isolated secondary VLANs are pruned from going out to a FEX.
the "only" limitation should be the trunk option - but as far as I can see from the output from my nexus this is not correct .We are running NXOS: [code]

I currently have two Nexus 5548UP switches in my environment running the latest code (n5000-uk9.5.1.3.N1.1a.bin). Both of these switches are connected via a VPC Peer Link (two ports on each switch in an Ether Channel) and a VPC-Keep Alive Link (a dedicated port). Hosts connect to each switch via a VPC for both IPV4 and FCOE.
As of right now, everything works. I currently have a stack of two 3750 switches that each Nexus is connected to. This stack is doing all the Intra-VLAN Layer 3 Routing for the Nexus Switches. However, I plan to get rid of the 3750s, and move the Layer 3 Routing the Nexus 5548's, so the backplane is 10 Gig instead of 1 Gig.. I have the Layer 3 Daughter Card installed in both switches, as well as the LAN_BASE license.
So, at the moment, I am trying to find the best way to accomplish Layer 3 Routing on these two switches. Since the Nexus switches are not stacked, and the FCOE portion of HA is taking care of by the Multipathing agent on each host, I believe am just concerned with providing Intra-VLAN routing in an HA build where if one switch goes down, VLANs still route through the other switch.
Again, since the Nexus switches are not stacked, I am guessing the best way to handle this is with HSRP, but my experience with that has always been with routers that have a switch in the middle. Can I make HSRP work without having a switch between the Nexus switches? Can I track the VPC peer link, or how do I do it? I guess I am looking for a sample config.
Let's pretend I had two VLANs:
VLAN 20:
10.20.20.254 - GW and 10.20.20.0/24
VLAN 40
10.40.40.254 - GW and 10.40.40.0/24
And I wanted the Nexus switches to route these VLANs regardless of which switch was up / down..

Yesterday I configured the 7010 Nexus switch. I created a VDC and allocated few ports and configured VLAN for testing. After enabling feature interface-vlan i was allowed to configured L3 interface for the vlan. I assigned ip address and connected few server to check the reachability but it says Destination Host Unreachable.
NX OS Ver : n7000-s1-dk9.5.2.4.bin
Configuration of the VDC below.

We recently extended our access layer using a pair of 5ks with extenders. We have a pair of 6509s at our core and they handle the intra-VLAN routing with SVIs. I recently noticed that access hosts connected to the extenders cannot pass traffic between each other if they are in different VLANs. The strange thing is these same hosts can ping devices in other VLANs as long as the other devices are not connected to the 5k environment.
For example, consider the following hosts. Each host has their gateway set to the appropriate SVI on our core.
HostA - VLAN100 - connected to 5k extender
HostB - VLAN200 - connected to 5k extender
HostC - VLAN100 - connected to 2960 off our core
HostD - VLAN200 - connected to 2960 off our core
Each host can ping each other with the exception of HostA and HostB. As for specifics, we use HSRP (no VSS) between our cores.
When I ping between hostA and hostB, I see the egress packets on either 5k1 or 5k2. I then see ingress AND egress on Core1. There are no ingress packets on 5k1 or 5k2.The egress packets from Core1 show the correct destination MAC address of the target host. The mac address table shows the mac address on po31.

I have defined a trunk between a nexus 5k and cat 3750 as a pvlan trunk - now I would like to add redundance and performance and tried to establish a vpc between my par of nexus's and the 3750 stack - but the nexus tell me that the port-channel doesn't support pvlan's - and then - ehh - do I get any benefits of running the trunk as a pvlan trunk at all?

I am trying to configerate static switchports on our nexus 5548 (nx-os 5.1(3)N1(1)) over snmp.The support-list url... states that the CISCO- VLAN- MEMBERSHIP- MIB is supported.I can read the information, but if i try to set vmVlan or vmVlanType i get the message: "SET failed. ("ip-address"). Information: Not Writable."I can use set_request in general (e.g. CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB). how to set the vlan and vlan-type over snmp?

We are currently using two Nexus 5548UP's as our Datacenter Network Core. I have a pretty simple objective: I would like to enable Jumbo Frames on a single VLAN only(VLAN 65). This VLAN is used strictly for backups. I do not want to enable Jumbo Frames on the other VLANs(VLANs 1-10). Im not sure what the best way to do this is.....or if it is even possible but I am hoping to get some configuration examples.

I'm not sure if I'm missing something basic here however i though that I'd ask the question. I recieved a request from a client who is trying to seperate traffic out of a IBM P780 - one set of VIO servers/clients (Prod) is tagged with vlan x going out LAG 1 and another set of VIO server/clients (Test) is tagged with vlan y and z going out LAG 2. The problem is that the management subnet for these devices is on one subnet.
The infrastructure is the host device is trunked via LACP etherchannel to Nexus 2148TP(5010) which than connects to the distribution layer being a Catalyst 6504 VSS. I have tried many things today, however I feel that the correct solution to get this working is to use an Isolated trunk (as the host device does not have private vlan functionality) even though there is no requirement for hosts to be segregated. I have configured:
1. Private vlan mapping on the SVI;
2. Primary vlan and association, and isolated vlan on Distribution (6504 VSS) and Access Layer (5010/2148)
3. All Vlans are trunked between switches
4. Private vlan isolated trunk and host mappings on the port-channel interface to the host (P780).
I haven't had any luck. What I am seeing is as soon as I configure the Primary vlan on the Nexus 5010 (v5.2) (vlan y | private-vlan primary), this vlan (y) does not forward on any trunk on the Nexus 5010 switch, even without any other private vlan configuration. I believe this may be the cause to most of the issues I am having. Has any one else experienced this behaviour. Also, I haven't had a lot of experience with Private Vlans so I might be missing some fundamentals with this configuration.

I understand the vlans on the catalyst side of the house on 2900 to 6500 Catalyst switches.
This 7010 running nx-os 5.1(3) I did not setup, but have to manage it. Hasn't really been a proble till now.
My nexus 7010 has a Layer 2 only vlan 11. It is "Active" but the interface is "shutdown". Yet, it is passing traffic across the directly connected ports on the nexus 7010 and to other switches in my network. Vlan 11 is being set out via VTP to all my switches and things are running fine.
I need to create another L2 only Vlan. I can't seem to find any docs that indicate that a Layer2 vlan Interface on nx-os should be in "shutdown" mode as part of the setup. I do see in the docs where it has to be set "Active" as part of the process.
Is this the correct way to seutp a L2 only vlan on nex-os? Leave the interface in "shutdown" but make it "Active"?
Mystery Vlan 4 and 6
The mystery deepens. I have other L2 vlans ,Vlan4&6 that are NOT defined as "Interface Vlan4" in the nexus config, yet it is applied to GigE ports on the nexus and these Vlans 4/6is also being sent out VTP to all switches. Even weirder is that these vlans have names associated with the numbers. These are valid Vlans that were configured on the old 6509 before the Nexus was installed.
I have checked all switches, NONE are running in Server mode for VTP, all are in CLIENT. The nexus 7010 is the only device running in VTP Server mode.

I've been asked whether we can use HP-branded 10G SFP+s (P/N 455885-001) in Nexus 2Ks to provide 10G connections to HP C-Class enclosures. We've used HP-branded twinax, and Cisco-branded SFP+s and twinax, but we have a raft of HP 10G SFP+s sat in a store room gathering dust and now we want to save some money by not having to buy the Cisco parts to match.

Configuring OSPFv2 on a Nexus 5K switches, after configuring area 0 or area 10 it shows as 0.0.0.0 or 0.0.0.10 instead, I'm planning to uplink a couple of ASAs with OSPF enabled, just wondering if the area format showing will be a problem, is this how is supposed to look in the Nexus 5K? and will the 5K be able to form adjacensies with other non-Nexus devices that have area 0 and 10?

According to Cisco, Nexus 1010 can host up to (6) Virtual Service blades. I can't find out how many Virtual Supervisor Modules and Virtual Ethernet Modules that make up one Nexus 1000v switches can be supported by each Virtual Service Blades. In other words, how many Nexus 1000v switches can be created with Nexus 1010 appliance?how to configure Nexus 1000v switches with vmware. without Nexus 1010, the standalone nexus 1000v switches was configured from vCenter as an OVF. But how to configure Nexus 1000v switches with vmware where nexus switches are hosted on Nexus 1010 appliance.

I am trying to understand what load balancing method is used on a port channel on a Nexus switch . I have a server connected by a VPC to two Nexus switches. The nexus switches are only acting as layer 2 switches. I have a 6509 connected via a upstream link that does all of the routing for my VLANS. If have a server connected to the Nexus switches and it talks to a server on my 6509 what load balancing happens on the Nexus going across VPC 27 which is a layer 2 trunk going up to my 6509. Is it done on layer 2 or layer 3 flows?
My Nexus shows the default load balancing configurations
Port Channel Load-Balancing Configuration:System: source-dest-ip
Port Channel Load-Balancing Addresses Used Per-Protocol:Non-IP: source-dest-macIP: source-dest-ip source-dest-mac

We are looking forward to implement IBM BladeCentre Swiches connectivity with Nexus 2k module.I would like to brief you about my network over as follows:
Coreswitch : 6513 ( Layer 3 switch + Spanning Tree root)
Nexus 5010 : Layer 2 switch
Nexus 2k 10G ports based module.
Currentl Solution : we want to connect the IBM Blade Switches (4) as demonstrated in the attached diagram which will be connected to Nexus 2k module as Ether-channel Access port.
Initially we been proposed by our vendor with this design and Now vendor is recommending us to connect the Blade switch etiher to Nexus 5k switch or directly to 6513 core-switches instead of Nexus 2k modules as they say Nexus 2k modules are only to connect the Edge devices .
We do not have ports available on Nexus 5010 to connect the cables from IBM Blade Centre Switches. Otherthan that, incase if we go ahead and connect the IBM Blade switches as access ether-channel access port with Nexus 2k module what are consequences we have to face realted Spanning tree or any other.

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

- trill or another ethernet ring topology like erps,eapsv2,
- Multi chassis LAG,
- virtual routers, policy routing
- dcb
- 40G interfaces will be plus
