Cisco Switching/Routing :: Enable Multicast On Nexus 7000 Switches In Simplest Form?
Apr 17, 2012
We are currently migrating from Cisco 6500 switches to Nexus 7000 switches. I need replicate the following multicast configuration on the 6500 switches in the simplest way so Multicast is functioning on the Nexus 7000 switches.
Cisco 6500 configuration.
ip multicast-routing
interface Vlan8
description
ip address 10.128.46.2 255.255.240.0
[code]....
how we can enable multicast on the Nexus 7000 switches in the simplest form so this will continue operating.

have multicast data across OTV extensions? We run OTV between two pairs of Nexus 7000 in different datacenters with mcast underlying encapsulation. We stretch 10 or so vlans between the sites. We have encountered multiple bugs over the last two years and had to upgrade code and have rarely been clear for any period of time.
We've had an ongoing Tac case where IGMP requests are not getting across the OTV VLAN extension to the PIM forwarder on another site. You can see OTV IGMP snooping on the AED VDC is picking up the request on the local site but it does not get to the remote site that is the PIM forwarder so no multicast gets onto the VLAN. For a while we had a hack where we would get a local server to the PIM forwarder router to request the same groups and then this would somehow get across to the other site. Since clearing the overlay interfaces to try and fix the original problem the hack no longer works and I can't get multicast to the receiver at all.

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

I am building up vPC on 2 x Nexus 3048 and found that it did not work properly.The current config as follows,
1. OS: n3000-uk9.5.0.3.U2.2.bin
2. Peer link: 10 x 1G (E1/1 - E1/10) on both devices (I am wondering that 1G interface supports vPC Peer-Link. I heard that upgrading to U3.2 image will work for 1G rather than 10G... )
3. They can ping each other via management IPs
4. Edge switches vPC have not been built yet (I am focusing on Peer-Link and vPC role selection)

I have been tasked to replace the existing Cat 6500 and 3750 switches by Nexus 7000 and Nexus 2000.I was told initially my boss plans to get 2 x Nexus 7000 and then eventually blow up to 4 x Nexus 7000s.For Nexus, is there a list of tasks / points that i need to consider for building the initial design?
Can i just link the Nexus 7000 like the following?
N7k-A ========= N7k-B

lots of N2ks lots of N2ks

On a 7K (5.0(2)), I have a situation where the FIB and RIB are out of sync. I'm not sure it's causing a problem, but it's been implicated in some weird packet loss issues. It seems like it could cause network issues if you had two routes in the RIB, only one in the FIB, and then you lost the single path in the FIB. How the RIB/FIB gets out of sequence, how to proactively know about it (nothing in the logs here), and whether or not this is a big deal or a red herring?
Here's sample output that illustrates the RIB and FIB being out of sequence.
ROUTER1# show ip route 172.16.100.1
IP Route Table for VRF "default"
'*' denotes best ucast next-hop

I have a 2960G that I keep on the bench as a work switch. I assigned an IP address to it. The techs have had trouble imaging workstations using GHOST. Do any config changes need to be made to enable multicast to work? Everything is in VLAN1 at this point and the GHOST server is also the DHCP server.

I need to enable multicast routing on 2960s but the command "ip multicast-routing" isn't available on my release (12.2.(55)).
From which release this command is available?

I have two data centres connected via a L2 DWDM, my manager wants to look into using OTV to get rid of the layer 2 broadcasting issues.
Problem is the DWDM is 1000BaseSX, which is only supported on the N7K-F132XP-15. (and the N7K-M148GS-11 but that doesn't support FCOE, so many bloody caveats). From what I can gather OTV is not supported on the N7K-F132XP-15.
Is it possible to terminate the DWDM on the F1 card & loop another port from the F1 to a port on the N7K-M148GT-11 & run OTV on the M1????
Either using VDCs or just an isolated VLAN on the F1. Is there any better way to do this? Hardware has not yet been purchased.

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 a pair of Nexus 7K's running 5.1(3). I have a handful of edge devices that I need to mark ingress traffic, and need to mark both DSCP and CoS. Right now, I have a working config that marks DSCP appropriately.While that works dor DSCP, the MQC will not allow me to mark both DSCP and COS in the same class, and unlike IOS, it appears that Nexus does not have a default DSCP-to-COS mapping. My understanding is this can be solved using table maps, but I don't see how that can solve my problem in this specific scenario (it appears I can do marking or table-map mutation, but not both?). How I can accomplish both?

I need to know how is the ambient temperature for the Nexus 7000 switches to plan a new datacenter. In the datasheet I found the following information regarding this topic:"GR-63-CORE Network Equipment Building Standards (NEBS) specification published by Telcordia Technologies in Section 4.1.2". How are the specification for temperature in this standard?

regarding QOS on Nexus 7000. Our Nexus 7000's form a collapsed distribution/core layer, our access layer switches are are a mixture of Cisco 3750 & Cisco 4507. 3750 switches will connect to Nexus switches via 1Gb uplink, 4507 switches will connect via 10Gb uplinks. Each Nexus will be connected via 20Gb port channel, all servers connect to the Nexus switches via 1Gb links. We're implementing a new telephone system soon which will be using VOIP so I need to configure the switches to perform QOS. The IP phones will mark the RTP traffic with DSCP value EF and call signaling traffic CS3. I'm fine configuring qos on the access layer switches, its just the Nexus switches which I'm not sure about.
Do I actually need to configure any QOS parameters on the Nexus switches so they will prioritise the VOIP traffic. If my understanding the Nexus switches will trust the DSCP values and assign the traffic to the relevent queues?
Just for information VOIP is the only traffic I will be marking QOS values

On Nexus 7000s I want to limit bandwidth of particular IP. I can do this using proper configuratio of IP ACL, policy map and class map. But what if I dont have information on interface? Can I apply bandwidth control for particular IP without knowing the interface?

if vPC is supported between a single 2232PP FEX and two 7000 switches running 6.0(1)? I have been researching this for an implementation I am doing for a client and was able to determine it was not supported with earlier versions of 5.0 when the FEX is connected via vPC as I described above, but I can't find anything related to version 6.0(1). I have done this for other clients with 5000 and 2000 switches, but I don't have too much experience with 7000 switches.

I have some error messages in the Nexus 7000 log, after searching i cannot find an adequate explanation, pretty much the only thing i can find is below and i don’t think it is very relevant to my situation. The device is in production and so reloading and pulling card willy nilly is the last resort.
Device = Nexus 7018
IOS version = 5.1(2)

I've learned recently that the Nexus 7000 only allows the configuration of a maximum of 2 Monitor sessions for spanning traffic. I only have one monitor session left and I need to do the following. 2 Core Nexus 7000 boxes with 2 different traffic probes/sniffers to each nexus( eg Sniffer 1 connects to Switch A on interface eth 1 and to Switch B on eth 1 ; Sniffer 2 connects to Switch A on eth 2 and to Switch B on eth 2.) My plan was to setup a standard session with multiple sources and destinations then on the interfaces connecting to the sniffers run a trunk and do 'sw trunk allowed xxxxx' and filter what I need to go to each sniffer box. However I've recently found out that some of my source traffic is coming from Port-Channel interfaces. Is there a way I can get around this and still do the filtering within only 1 monitor session ?

Are there any dependencies on VTP on the Nexus platforms like the 5500 or 7000? In IOS P V LAN required VTP Transparent mode however I cannot find any reference to this for the Nexus platform. Are there any other features that would require the use of VTP? By default VTP is turned off on nexus and has to be enabled with the feature command so is there any benefit to running VTP in transparent mode vs off?

i like to configure two ports in dedicated mode (eth4/1 + eth4/2).the ports are on a modultype "N7K-F132XP-15" (32x10GE)all ports are in one vdc membership (default configuration)
ive tried this for port eth 4/1:
bciscon7k01(config)# int eth 4/1,eth 4/3,eth 4/5,eth 4/7
bciscon7k01(config-if-range)# shut
bciscon7k01(config-if-range)# int eth 4/1
bciscon7k01(config-if)# rate-mode dedicated
after that i get the following message:"Ignoring command for interface Ethernet4/1 as rate-mode is fixed." i didn't find any documentation to this error message.whats wrong in my configuration?

I have a Nexus 7000 pair with Etherchannels connecting to various access switches. 2960's and 3750's.The access switches channel 2 ports together. LACP active mode. One link goes to one Nexus and one to the other. Those connections are a portchannel with vpc configured.Every 30 seconds on every interface connecting to one Nexus I see a FCS error. The errors increment at the same time every 30 seconds. Only on one port. If I shutdown that link and keep the channel up on the other link the errors move. No shut the interface and they move back.This must surely be some Nexus generated packet that the access switch does not recognize/ what is likely to be getting sent at 30 sec intervals to all Channel members on one link ?
