We have two 6509 switches with one WS-X6704-10GE module in each of them. There is an optical cable between the two switches plugged in WS-X6704-10GE module on both sides. When you shut down the port on one side the other port still stays as up and you need phisycally to unplug the cable to have it down. The same behaviour is seen no matter on which of the two switches you shut down the port, the opposite one always stays as up and only removal of the cable makes it go down.
The ports are configured quite simply:

Cisco Catalyst 6509 Chassis.We have moved a line card from slot 8 to slot 6, but config remains for the line card in slot 8 and nothing is seen in slot 6.
We are running on IOS Verison 12.2 (33SXH2A) i.e. VSS.Blade model number is WS-X6748.
Problem I have encountered when upgrading a Cisco 6509 chassis with a new supervisor card from Sup2 to Sup 720b. The 6509 loads and then crashes completely, and when rebooted reloads into rommon.The same upgrade was performed on a similar switch with no apparent problems.
I currently have a couple of 6509 chassis (router/switches) with the following hardware blades:
x3 48 ports x1 NAM x2 Sup720 Running 12.2(18)SXF3
I am keeping the four Sup720 modules and have purchased new versions of the others blades including two new 6509-E chassis?Can I take my stand-by Sup720 out of the production machine and insert it into the new chassis?

We recently connected a RPS 2300 to our switch WS-C3750G-48PS-E with IOS c3750-ipservicesk9-mz.122-53.SE2.bin.However i do not see any RPS details in the"show env" output.I believe i should get the RPS Name and its Serial and the port number in the output, but i am not finding it in the output. I did reload the switch but still couldnot get this udpated.
We had to transport one of our 4948 10 GE to another Data Centre and when we got it there and tried to power up its System Status LED was red and we cannot even get console to the device.
We can try to see if the switch is completely dead and needs replacing or is there something we can do to get it back up and running again?
New corporate Latitude D600 with Dell installed Cisco mini 350 wireless b card. Getting "Not Associated" status. Dell will not support this card.... %^&$%.
Using a Netgear wireless g router for home office. Attached are a Gateway hard wired and a Toshiba laptop with a Netgear wireless g card. Both are working great. Netgear says router is OK and it supports both b and g. Toshiba laptop identifies every wireless in my neighborhood but the D600 and Cisco cannot detect any signal. I have tried with and without security and every combination setup. Cisco has attempted to correct this problem but are still baffled. When I enable the Cisco card via the network and dial-up setting, it tries to initialize and then posts a message that the "network cable is unplugged"
I have recently installed 4 3560 (WS-C3560X-48T-S) Switches. At first the switch comes up, indicating all connected ports with a green LED. Whenever i unplug a cable and plug it back in, the status LED will stay off. The same thing happens when I push the mode button and cycle throgh the different modes, i lose certain LEDs.
I'm using 12.2(53)SE2, another user reported the same issues under 12.2(55)SE1 .

I have installed and configured 2 new WS-3750E-24TD in the last 30 days, that have software version 12.5(50)SE2-universalk9, on our flat Development LAN (currently 7 existing WS-3750E-24TD with 12.5(35)SE2-universal)The new switches have shutdown, 1 has shutdown twice and I just had the other one shutdown on the weekend, all the status lights on the left are lit up but no port lights are on, I am not able to console in to the switch all I can do is cycle power. I am planning on upgrading all switches to the latest software release universalk9-mz.150-1SE
could this problem be a version incompatibillity between the switches?
In my 6513 switch chassis we have two Supervisor Engines 720 one is marked Active other as Hot. what is the diffrence in their mode as by name I suppose that Active one is currently in use and Hot one is in standby mode.They are showing in this manner.
I enabled the "no service password-recovery" command on my C2960 switch. All seems to work as discribed. Only issue I have is --- which show command is used to reveal if the password-recovery feature is enabled of disabled as the command doesn't show up in the running config after you enable it ?
NOTE: The command does show up in the C2960 switch in config t mode (unlike the IOS router 2800 series), but doesn't show up in the running-config after you enable or disable it.
On the 2800 series routers (latest IOS) in config t mode the command does not show up but if you type "no service passowrd-recovery" the command function correctly and it does list it in the running configuration.
On a 4500 switch having a single sup engine, another sup engine was installed to act as redundant one.the redundancy mode was changed to sso, thereafter the secondary sup was prompted to be reset.
After it came back up again, the redundancy status still shows as RPR in operation mode.
I installed WS-C4506-E 3 day ago. I discovered someting different module status Right at the end of the module ( WS-X4648-RJ45-E ) show red led. this is not port led i try to reset module several time. but it's same status. but this is operating now nomally I upload picture.. and this is module status and diagnostic result

I have a really weired thing happening on 6509 device with one of my customers.The device has a SUP 2 (MSFC2) with version 12.2.18SXF17B.
any VLAN interface once administratively down or simply down shows on "show interface status" output as VLAN.While it supposed to show "Routed". However once the port is up it is shows "routed" like it should.
we've had an issue with our network, we have 2 6509 connected with redundancy, which are connected with 2 x 4900 Switches, from which are connected to a ESX Chassis for visualization, the thing is that the ESX stopped working, and the 4900 switches, and the main core were suffering from overload, they hang on it very well, in order to stop the overload, one of the links to the ESX Chassis were disconnected from one of the 4900 switches. The CPU usage from the 4900 and the core(6509) went down below 40%, and then they started to migrate the virtual servers from the chassis to another 2 chassis that were added right after. They were actually working well, but suddenly the 6509 changed to the other supervisor after everything was OK. We were wondering what could have been the cause of this, maybe the virtual servers migrations, maybe the overload from the ESX ? We also had a few question, is there any need to reload the cores every few months as a planned task ? Because the cores have been up for more than 1 year. And also is there any kind of of tool to monitor the CPU status, or the status overall from the cores or the switches ?
The have around 80 staff and I think the current infrastructure is overkill for the size of the company. The current kit is old and they have no GB ethernet ports. They currently have:-
Core Switch: 1x Cisco c6509with a 48 port fast ethernet module (WS-X6248-RJ-45) and an 8 port fibre module (WS-X6408A-GBIC)
I'm looking to replace this with something with 72 ethernet ports and 8 fibre ports
Access Switches: 2x 3500Replacement needs at least 48 ports and 2 fibre modules each
and 2x 5500Replacement needs at least 72 ports and 2 fibre modules each.
I have two ISPs. Each is on it's own subnet connected to the 6509 MSFC/Switch. FW1 is on 100.1.100.0/30 and FW2 is on 200.1.200.0/30 subnet. My goal is route all traffice going to the Internet from subnet 10.133.3.0/24 to FW1 and all other subnets across the organization to FW2. I am not sure if I need to use ACL / Static route combo, or just a static routes or ACLS?
We have a Catalyst 6509 switch, and we hope to use policy based routing to redirect http traffic to my proxy server, where I can find the configuration example?
I would like to ask you if it's possibile to block routing between some Vlan for just once of them.
Maybe I can explain better:
I've got a Cisco 6509 with 4 configured vlan interfaces Int Vlan 10 10.10.1.0/24 Int Vlan 20 10.10.2.0/24 Int Vlan 30 10.10.3.0/24 Int Vlan 40 10.10.4.0/24
Vlan "10" is the phone voip Vlan and it must not talk with the others Vlan. The others Vlan can comunicate normally except with Vlan "10".
Pratically Vlan "10" needs to be isolated from the others.
This equirement comes becouse Vlan 10 is wireless and has the WEP key encryption (very weak protocol). Some Phone couldn't support the WPA2 key and I need to avoid an unauthorized external client, cracking the WEP key and connecting to this WiFi, could have free access to the others Vlan.
I have a problem on my catalyst 6509 on which I would like to do the following things :
I have some Vlans in which multicast is enabled. In tose Vlan theres is a router which is default router for equipements.
I had enabled multicast routing because some Vlan needs to exchange multicast informations, but I wolud like to make difference between Multicast traffic. For example I have 5 vlans:
Vlan 1 and 2 need to exchange Multicast informations but the don't need multicast information from Vlan 3 and 4 Vlan 3 and 5 need to exchange Multicast informations but the don't need multicast information from Vlan 1 and 2 Vlan 5 is independant Vlan but doesn't need to have multicast information from all others vlan.
Last problem, equipement on differents vlan can use the same Mulkticast group address. In this case, Multicast routing is not working between Vlan 1 to Vlan 2 and Vlan 3 to Vlan 4.
I need to setup my 6509 with PBR going to two different Firewalls. The 6509 has vlans and multiple serial interfaces. What/where do I install the policy-maps? I want to direct one of the vlans to one firewall and the other vlans and wan subnets to the other firewall.
I have 2 6509-E chassis with SUP-720-VSS and classic line cards :-(. on October 2011 the switch reached 100% CPU on both devices and the entire network went down. Customer restarted the core so we lost all the log files and couldnt find out any root cause on the same. TAC engineer suggested to have some script configured on the system in case of CPU shooting up above 70%, it will create a file in flash and keep appending the logs to the same. Last week i got call from customer saying that the CPU again went high for around a minute on both the cores. Last time i added CoPP also on the switch in order to prevent the CPU reaching 100%. Still it went high and from the captured logs i saw that the process created the high CPU was Port Manager Per and SSH process. Attached the file created by the netdr capture command.
I have a customer that has a Catalyst 6509 with two Supervisor VSS capable and my Sales team sell another 6509 with just one Supervisor VSS capable. Simple question: Will VSS configuration will recognize that I have three Supervisors? It will work as QUAD-SUP solution or as a normal VSS solution?
We are trying to migrate from 1g to 10G, couldn't find any module on 6509-E which supports 10G on SFP+ ...I can see X2 and Xenpacks .. but not SFP + .what exactly this Xenpack means ?
We have connected a single F5 box with dual links to 2 different Cisco Catalyst switches using 802.1Q trunks. F5 is configured with RSTP mode and on Cisco Switch RPVST+ is configured.STP root bridge is hardcoded on the Cisco side. Loop Guard is globally enabled.On F5 STP link type is Auto, STP Edge port is disabled since that port is connected to the cisco switch.When we are failing over the F5 primary link to the secondary link we see 'Loop Inconsistent' on the cisco switch and things dont work after the failover.We have tried configuring the F5 as STP passthrough but that doesn't fix out the issue.I have checked out the forums and found out following recommendations
1. Configuring MSTP bw F5 and Cisco for better compatibility (Not possible from Cisco side because of a major change in large production setup)
2. Configuring VSS in Cisco switches (not possible due to hardware limitation)
3. Connecting F5 using single links to each switch (redundancy compromised)
I am wondering that on which default vlan does the F5 STP instance0 sends the STP BPDUs ? the term used on Cisco side is native vlan and others use PVIDs; that F5 default vlan should match the native vlan on cisco trunk side.
Tonight we were performing an IOS upgrade on our 6509 VSS to 122-33.SXI6. Both 6509's have dual Supervisor cards installed. Initially we had problems with switch 2 slot 5 supervisor returning to rommon however switch 2 slot 6 supervisor loaded correctly. After manually setting the boot var in rommon, switch 2 slot 5 supervisor reloaded correctly.
After all supervisor's were online we noticed when looking at " show switch virtual redundancy" that sw 1 & 2 slot 6 supervisors were running the correct IOS version but sw 1 & 2 slot 5 were running different IOS versions, however when looking at the show version we are running on the upgraded IOS??? See output below...
Why the active supervisor has loaded the incorrect IOS the VSS is running on the upgraded IOS? I have verified the IOS was copied correctly to each supervisor bootdisk, I see no issues.
