Cisco Switching/Routing :: Correct Way To Lic VSS On 4500 SUP7L-E
May 13, 2013
What is the correct way to lic VSS on a 4500 SUP7L-E ? url... Under Table 5 - Support by Image Type; VSS is listed as available on IP Base (SUP7E only) and a plain Yes under Enterprise Services, inferring that you need Enterprise Services lic on SUP7L-E to get VSS? url...Under Table 1 - Minimum License for VSS; IP Base or higher (7-E) or special license (7-LE and Catalyst 4500-X)Can find no option on CCO / configuration tools to list a 'special' VSS license for 4500R+E chasiss with dual SUP7L-E and IP Base.How are you meant to purchase/license VSS on 4500E Chassis + SUP7L-E ?

How to successfully run the dot1q tunneling on Cat4500 with Sup7L-E? I tried that on IOS XE 3.3 and newest 3.4. It is in feature navigator but i am not able to connect two access switching using trunk - only native vlan is translated. Apparently STP BPDU frames are dropped somewhere. I have the same configuration on 3750X with ip services licence and this works well.

Any information on supervisor WS-X45-SUP7L-E? I saw that it has 520Gbps of backplane, but does it supports Netflow? How many uplink does it has?

Documentation discusses "1-Gigabit Operation", where all 4 1-Gig SFP's on Sup7L-E are enabled. But it does not say __how__ to select either 10-G or 1-G operational modes.

Are there any plans to support a "shared backplane mode" like on SUP6-E that enables the use of four 10G oversubscripted uplink ports in redundant mode? now there is support for up to two active 10G links in redundant mode.

I will go to buy a core 4506 but I'm comfusing about the Sup engines and the Fiber module. What is the different between the Sup7 and Sup7L?in the fiber module that I will go to buy is it contain the SFP inside or I have to buy the SFP ( WS-X4612-SFP-E ). also what is the different between the SFP and GBIC?

What is the case with redundant Sup engine 10GbE interfaces. We can only get one in active state, the other interface stays inactive? Can we have all four interfaces active sharing the backplane?

We are planning for the first installation of 4500 switches containing these supervisor modules. I'm trying to determine the interface numbering convention for ports on the supervisors. Our existing 4500E all have SUP6 modules with twin-gig converters - so I am familiar with the numbering conventions used on those supervisors. How does this change with the software based selection command "hw-module uplink select" used in SUP7?

know if it is supported connecting the SUP7L-E 10GE ports to a C3KX-NM-10G, using a SFP-H10GB-CU5M (or shorter).

I got Two Distribution Switches of Cisco 3750G. Each Distribution have two 3750G switches stacked. I also have one Cisco 3750V2 Access Switch connected to both Distribution. When I am checking for redundancy, I can only get redundancy test pass for one link not atall for other. If I have a link up with Distribution 1 only then its fine; but disappointment with Distribution 2 link. I can see that the switch priorities of Dist 2 is not correct ie. Master's priority is 10 and Member's is 15.
My question is that due to misconfigured priorities on Distribution 2 stack switches I am failing with redundancy if ONLY Dist 2 is up and Dist 1 is down.

I have two cabinets in a datacentre (with 12 CAT5 links available between them), at the moment I just have a single firewall and a very basic 3Com 2824 unmanaged gigabit switch in each cabinet that are connected together. This works perfectly as the traffic use is very light and is typically server->firewall->Internet rather than too much heavy inter-server traffic.I want to improve the redundancy and reliability however. So I plan to get two Fortigate firewalls, put them in a HA cluster and have one in each cabinet with connections to the WAN. The servers are all VMware so have mulitple NICs teamed. The last bit then is between the VMware host servers and the firewalls - the switches. I'd like to have each server connected to two switches to give multiple paths, so I'm looking at two switches per cabinet. From doing a fair bit of reading it looks like I'll have no problem with this, STP should be able to sort out the multiple routes to whichever firewall is the active member at the time. There will be some need for basic VLANing as I would like to separate management traffic and certain servers I wouldn't expect to exceed 5-10 VLANs.
As I said the traffic is very light and from what I can tell I don't require any "fancy" features, and given the I need to buy four switches I'm trying choose a switch that is reliable but will do the job and not much more. If we experience growth down the road then we can buy more expensive switches then. So I've been looking at the WS-C2960-48TT-S and the WS-C2960-48TT-L, the first using the LAN Lite software while the second uses the LAN Base. The LAN Base version is virtually twice the price so I'm wondering if there are any features of LAN Base that are required in my scenario? I've done quite a bit of reading but cannot really see a reason why LAN Lite should not work fine, but don't want to discover I missed something when it is too late .

I cannot seem to correct a duplex mismatch issue.I have a Cisco 2950 switch connected to a Cisco 2621 router. I am running a per-interface Vlan. I have two fastethernet ports and one NM-1E card installed on the router. One fastethernet port is connected to my gateway router, the second fastethernet port is connected to my switch for one Vlan. The NM-1E Ethernet card is being used for the second Vlan which consists of nine IP cameras. Though the cameras on the Vlan are working fine.Now, the NM-1E card is set to half-duplex. I know that I should be using a fastethernet module like a 1FE 2W or a 2FE 2W card, (which I have,) but the router does not recogonize either one of these cards when they are installed, and yes, they have been confirmed as good cards.
Using Router-on-a-Stick configuration is out due to the bandwidth contention besides the fact that the router I am using it on will not handle this due to the flash being an older version.I have forced the switchport to half duplex, setting the speed to 10. I was getting fewer error messages at first, but they soon increased back to the frequency that they began with.I have set the switchport to duplex auto, but this failed to resolve the issue.Obviously, I cannot force the switchport into duplex full since the NM-1E interface is set to half duplex. Can the NM-1E card be configured to full duplex? I can't seem to find any documentation showing where it can be forced to full duplex mode.Could nine IP cameras just be too much for both the router and switch to handle?

Looking at the following output (show interface status) from one of our 4507s I see gig interfaces 3/2 to 3/6 are all trunked (dot1q). When I look at a show run they do not show as trunked. They should indicate switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q and switchport mode trunk (as does interface gig4/2). I have seven other 4507s all running the same IOS: 12.2(25)EWA8 and they all show the same information in show run and show interface status (as far as trunked goes). This is not a problem as I know the interfaces are trunked and working properly I am just puzzled as to why I see this difference.
Here is the sho int gig3/2 trunk. It looks like you are correct. I did not realize some were set to trunk mode on and others were not. I would think the running config would still show the port using dot1q but I guess not.

Clarifying whats the correct # of port asic in WS-X6704-LC?According to the following link (Catalyst 6500 Architectural white paper): [URL]
"In the WS-X6704-10GE line card, there are two port ASICs each supporting 2 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports"
While in the document: Understanding Quality of Service on the Catalyst 6500 Switch: [URL]
Table 10.
WS-X6704
Number of 10 GE Ports 4
- QoS on 10-Gigabit Ethernet Line Cards (WS-X6704-10GE)
So whats correct? 4 port asic or 2 port asic?
# Port ASIC’s on the linecard 4
# Physical Ports per Port ASIC 1

The network in my building consists of several 2950s connected back to 3550s using redundant fiber links and MST. Recently one tenant decided they wanted to run their own switch and use the existing building network for VoIP only which is on a dedicated VLAN. I was thinking about creating an access port on the 2950 and setting it to the VoIP VLAN as I do not want to give them a trunk port. The client can take this link and connect to their switch. So far does not seem to be an issue. Now what happens if the client configures spanning-tree on their switch? I have no control over their device and cannot manage it. Is there a way I can protect my edge switch and access port to allow them to run their own spanning tree without it interfearing with my existing MST instances? I was thinking BPDU guard but if they turn on stp and my switch sees a bpdu then the port is disabled and they lose VoIP access. At the same time I dont want them to be able to create a loop on their switch and have it affect mine. But since the is only a single cable from my device to theirs?

Does the 4500 support VSS (Virtual Switching System) ? On the official product overview page it says: 1.6 Terabits capacity with Virtual Switching System (hardware-ready)What means Hardware ready ? Does it mean that it supports VSS in the same manner as the 6500 ? The reason I'm asking this question is that I didn't find any info on the Internet about this. We would like to upgrade our network by interconnecting the 2 sites with Layer 2 redundant links (Layer 2 extension), but I'd like to use the both links in a load-balancing manner, which can be a real pain in the *** with STP. The choice is between 4500 and 3750 stackable core switches. The 6500s are very expensive.

When in single sup mode, can I have the following combinations?
1 SFP+ and 1 SFP << pretty sure this is supported
1 SFP+ and 2 SFP << think it's supported
1 SFP+ and 3 SFP << doubtful
2 SFP+ and 2 SFP << think it's supported
3 SFP+ and 1 SFP << doubtful

All the ports on module 5 have "power inline never" applied, in fact the whole switch has POE disabled.

I am getting a very strange problem where 4500 switch is remarking the packet with dscp 1 to 0.
Let me explaint the setup. I have two PCs connected on same switch but on different modules. PC1 is conencted to Gi4/19 and PC2 is connected to
Gi2/43. Both the ports has been configured to trust the dscp. Below are the configuration:

We have 3 layer LAN architecture, layer 1 of 6500(IP routing), layer 2 of 4500(L2 switch only), layer 3 of 2960(L2 Switch)In a Single (2960 and 4500) Switch Port Avaya IP phone and PC are connected.Now, the requirement is that, Qos need to be configured for Voice traffic and Data traffic should be in default class of service.We plan to use COS value in Switch 4500 and 2960. We made a sample configuration as below
### For 4500 Switch
class-map match-all VOIP-Access-2MB
match cos 3 5
class-map match-all VOIP-Uplink-20MB
match cos 3 5
[code].....
check these configurations are correct as per standard and if there is any other method of configuration?What need to be configured in L3 Switch(6500)??In 2960, it doesn't support ingress QoS, what impact it will make when compare to 4500? do users experiance any difference?

read the posts regarding vlans that are administratively down, they suggested that they are down if no ports are assigned to them, however I do have a switchport assigned, and the interface is still down. This is on the vtp server and on the clients. The vlan is not listed when issuing show vlan brief. Other vlans configured in a similar way do show and their interfaces are up. These are two Catalyst 4948-10G.Cisco IOS Software, Catalyst 4500 L3 Switch Software (cat4500-IPBASEK9-M), Version 12.2(53)SG5, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1).
