Cisco Switching/Routing :: How To Reconfigure Stackwise 3750
May 1, 2012
there were three 3750s in a stackwise configuration but later it was decided to remove sw #1 from the stack and make it a standlone sw. I was trying to reconfigure the new combination and tried renumbering the switches and also changed the priority but the switch #1 in a stack if 2 now, shows three switches still!?how can I make sure that new configuration is done clean and the master switche only shows two switches with switch number 1 being master i.e. with "*"?
The stackwise marketing info states that when a failed member is replaced with a new switch the replacement switch "gets the exact configuration of the old device". I would figure it takes a little more than just disconnecting and connecting a new switch in the same spot on the stack. doing this with 3750 family switches? What are the steps to prepare the stack for a new member? what steps need to be taken on the replacement switch before insertion into the stack to make sure it gets configured like the unit it was replacing?
As I understand Cisco Catalyst 3750-x supports stackwise and stackpower technology.Do I need to purchase a seperate module to enable stackwise and stackpower? Or are stackwise and stackpower modules included be default on the switch already?
I'm looking at adding a Cisco 3750-X switch running c3750e-universalk9-mz.122-55.SE1 (IP base license) into a stack of 3750-G switches running c3750-ipbasek9-mz.122-55.SE1.bin Given that the version and feature sets are the same I don't forsee any compatibility issues. Would there be any reason why a universal image wouldn't stack correctly with other switches running the single .bin file?
We have a stack of switches that is at the max number of members allowed in the stack. Problem is we are running out of port density and need to add more ports. So instead of adding a whole new stack I would rather replace 2 of the 24-port swicthes with 48-port switches.
If the two 24-port swicthes we are removing are stack members and neither of them are the stack master, I should be able to replace the 24-port switches with the 48-port switches without bringing the master offline? If the new 48-port switches are running the same IOS version as the current 24-port swicthes, they should add themselves to the stack?Would I have to tell the new 48-port swicthes what switch numbers they are replacing in order for them to be added to the stack since we are at the max number of members?Also since the 48-port swicthes are replacing 24-port switches will the master give the 48-port switches the configuration for only the 24-ports?
some of our switches have the switchport mode trunk command configured between the 3750 switches but other 3750 switches connected to our 6509 core switch do not have the switchport mode trunk command to permit Vlans from going across the swtiches instead it has an ip address and says no switchport what is the difference between does two. Is trunking used only for Layer 2 and L3 is used to route interface vlans?
I have a network with a Catalyst 3750 as the main switch and then some Catalyst 2960 switches that are plugged in to that. I have a server running windows server 2008 with a couple of virtual machines running in Hyper-V. I created 4 VLANS listed below and gave the 3750 the following IP Address.I would like the 3750 to only be configurable from VLAN 40 but currently every VLAN can connect to it, I noticed in the standard web page settings there was a setting for "Management VLAN" but it was set to 1 and would not let me change it, I kinda assumed that was for the management port in the back.-Now the tricky part, I was trying to set up routing between the VLANs and so far I have only been able to get a sort of "all or nothing" routing to work. I can turn IP routing on and add two or more VLANs to the routing and it works fine. But what I was hoping to do is create a couple of "junction vlans" that would only route to one or two other vlans. For instance, I wanted to create a VLAN 100 that routed to VLAN 20 and 30 but nothing else. I also want to route VLAN 1 just to VLAN 30, and so on. I am able to do each one of the cases but only one, it seems like the switch only supports one "routing table" am I missing something or is this just a limitation of the switch?
Is a 3750 sw capable of handling full routing tables and what can you recommend in a small mutihomed BGP router or switch capable of handling full routing tables?
I have a network with several catalyst 2960 switches and one catalyst 3750. I have created two VLAN and set up the proper routing and everything is working fine there. I have a client/server application that used multicast in the initial start up for the client to determine available servers, the issue is one of my clients is on a different VLAN then the server. I am able to route the multicast using MVR as long as both the server and the client are plugged into the 3750 by creating a static route, making the server a source port and the client a receive port. Unfortunately I need the client and the server plugged in to different 2960s. My question is how do I establish multicast routing between the two and perferably do it dynamically (always route multicast traffic from one VLAN to another).
I have been looking into this for a while and I can't seem to figure out why my 2nd vlan is not able to connect properly to the net.
My switch has 12 ports where my devices connects directly, they are all on Vlan 1 and they all work perfectly. on Port 12 I have a dlink router that is connected to a cable modem. the dlink router has an Ip address of 192.168.0.20
I created a second vlan (vlan2) and enabled dhcp relay on it. then I assigned port 9 on the switch to (vlan2)my laptop which is connected to port 9 seems to get an ip address fine and able to ping only some devices on my network (vlan1) and is not able to go out to the internet. I think it has to do with the routes. [code]
I have the task of replicating the router config on a 3825 router on a 3750 switch. Reason is we are taking out the router and replacing it with the switch to make use of the router for other functions.
Below is main part of the router config:
! ip source-route ip cef ! ! multilink bundle-name authenticated ! license udi pid CISCO3825 sn FCZxxxxxxx ! vlan internal allocation policy ascending
[code].....
The 3750 switch I have runs C3750E-UNIVERSALK9-M, Version 12.2(55)SE3 on a LAN BASE license.
The first thing I have done is to order for a license upgrade to IP BASE which would give the support for OSPF routing.I do not see much of an issue with the Interface configs, however, I am not too sure about replicating the routing config on the switch.
My question is can I run the commands as shown for the OSPF routing on the switch? If not, can I get suggestions on how best to set this up on the switch?
In 3750 switch,I have configured intervlan routing.I have three vlans Vlan 10,vlan 20,Vlan 30 and I have assigned IP address for that Vlan.In vlan 10,I have connected one systen gigabitethernet 0/1 interface.From my system I am able to ping vlan 10 ip address but I can't able to ping other vlan ip address (vlan 20,vlan 30).Is it possible to up the protocol for all that time.
For intervlan routing, Is 'IP routing' command enabled by default on a 6500 series switches based on the IOS?and on 3750 switches, do we need to enable the "ip routing" command manually for intervlan routing?
I am using a 3750 as a default gateway for multiple Vlans on a few 2960 switches. The trunk lines are configured and working and I have assigned ip addresses to each of the Vlan interfaces on the 3750. My issue is that I can only ping the ip address on the Vlan interface of the 3750 if I have a working computer plugged directly into the Vlan on the 3750. I only have 3 vlans on the 3750 that have hosts directly connected (vlans 2, 10 and 40) the other vlans ( 20 and 70) don't have any clients plugged into them on the 3750 but the hosts reside on 2 different 2960s that connect via trunk ports. How do I keep the vlan interface on the 3750 switch pingable when I don't have hosts directly connected in that vlan on the 3750? (yes, I have enabled ip routing on the 3750)
I have a simple design with 3750. I configured a route-map which define a next hop. I defined this route-map on a policy on a vlan interface.When I test some ping and a debug ip policy and it seems that my policy never match.Is there any mechanism that prevent the switch from using PBR? I think of CEF .
In our datacenter we have a 3750 stack with IP base image. I have enabled PBR and reloaded the switch. Show sdm prefer says i am using default template. The reason i want to use PBR is that we have 2 firewalls on the same work and want to be able to have granular control over which gateway out of the network they use but still be able to access all internal resouces accross wan and locally.
Created access list to identify traffic:
access-list 10 permit 10.2.3.59 (test workstation on vlan 3)
Created policy:
route-map TestASA permit 10 match ip address 10 set ip next-hop 10.2.0.3
Assigned policy to the user vlan3:
ip policy route-map TestASA
Results:It changed the default gateway to the above gateway but i could not access any resources on any other vlan, could not access resouces accross wan.

I'm running into what seems a basic ip routing config problem with a Catalyst 3750 (IP Base) switch. I have several VLANS configured on the switch with IP routing enabled, and the switch is connected to the inside interace of a new ASA 5520 as follows:
ASA5520 IP (Default gateway): 192.168.1.1Switchport Gi1/0/1 is configured as a routed port, IP address 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0Example VLAN is VLAN 100, IP address 192.168.100.1 255.255.252.0 From the switch CLI, I can ping all VLAN addresses, as well as the ASA5520, and the client laptop I'm testing with from VLAN 100.
From the client laptop on VLAN 100, I can ping all switch interface and VLAN addresses (inter-VLAN routing is working), including 192.168.1.3, but I CANNOT ping the default gateway at 192.168.1.1.
Here is the relevant configuration information on the 3750:
! no aaa new-model switch 1 provision ws-c3750x-24 system mtu routing 1500
I have a Cisco 3750 with private VLANS configured.. VLAN 2 is the "primary", VLAN 3 is "isolated" and VLAN 4 is "community". This is all working correctly, however I now have the need to another VLAN called "production". I need the production VLAN to be able to reach all the private VLAN hosts (community and Isolated), and vice versa
For intervlan routing, Is 'IP routing' command enabled by default on a 6500 series switches based on the IOS?hes, do we need to enable the "ip routing" command manually for intervlan routing?
I have 2 ISP connected to Router A and Router B.Both the routers are connected to the core 3750 switch.. I want to send the traffic from the switch that goes to router A to router B..[code]
I am using a cisco 3750 in my network as a gateway, and above it I use a squid machine for caching my internet. My network is like this:
Basically I have two VLANs on my network which are VLAN10 and VLAN100, VLAN10 is the cooperate network of my office. VLAN100 is the management VLAN which i use for the switches. I keep the squid as well the client in VLAN10.
squid (192.168.1.50)---->cisco 3750(192.168.1.123)---->Distribution Switch(cisco 2960)---->client PC (192.168.1.5)
I have done nating on squid and internet is working pretty fine when I use the client gateway as the squid, but when I use the cisco 3750 as my gateway after adding route maps for forwarding the internet traffic coming to the cisco 3750 to squid it disconnects me from internet as well I cannot even reach the switches from the corporate network. These are the only Lines I used for the routing:
! route-map proxy-redirect permit 10 match ip address 110
I have a quick query which i need ratified before proceeding. I have the following scenario -
Two Cisco 3750v2 switches with stackwiseISP allocated block of /26 (64 addresses)8 customers each with a VLAN and SVIInternet facing VLAN and SVIDefault route to ISP router Lets say the ISP has given me the network range 10.10.10.0/26 (we'll assume this is routable on the internet for the purposes of this example) and a default gateway to the internet of 10.10.10.1 within this range. I have configured a public facing VLAN as follows -
VLAN 300 name PUBLIC int VLAN 300 IP Address 10.10.10.2 255.255.255.252
I have then created a default route as follows -
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.10.1
With this configured, the switch can successfully route upstream to the internet with no problems. I have then moved onto the customers and depending on what service they have purchased, I have subnetted the 10.10.10.0/26 range into smaller subnets. See as follows -
Customer A - 10.10.10.4/30 Gateway IP - 10.10.10.5 Useable IPs - 10.10.10.6 Customer B - 10.10.10.8/29 Gateway IP - 10.10.10.9 Useable IPs - 10.10.10.10 - 10.10.10.14
This continues for each customer depending on how many IP's the have purchased. I have then assigned these IP ranges to a customer VLAN and SVI as follows -
Customer A VLAN 10 name CUST-A-VLAN int VLAN 10 ip address 10.10.10.5 255.255.255.252
[code].....
It is then up to the customer as to what equipment they use and how they NAT or firewall their internal networks.
I have a typical LAN environment that spans across a large warehouse. I have done a lot of redesigning of the environment to satisfy the need for a disaster recover plan. I now have created a LAN with multiple v lans and must also connect all the access layer switches back to the core switch where the servers are.
I was thinking of something simple such as Port channel of 2 Gbps across the backbone and simple floating static routes . I have then moved my wan access link to a 3750 and implemented routing a CEF at each of the 3 core switches (blue). My question is more of design.
I have a small campus network using 3750 stackable switches and a 3725 router (see diagram below). Currently the 3725 router is handling inter-vlan routing for the campus and it looks like it's not able to handle the amount of traffic we're pushing. The router CPU sometimes hits above 90% due traffic load. What I would like to accomplish is move L3 process over to the 3750 MDF stack and the IDF1 stack. I am thinking creating SVI's on both MDF stack and IDF1 stack, run HSRP between the two stacks and may be do load balance traffic between the two stack as well.
Basically I have 3 VLAN’s. Office VLAN (for cooperative usage) which is VLAN 999 which has a defined IP address of 192.168.1.123 and Guest VLAN (for the guests who visits our hotel, most of it are wifi AP’s) VLAN 20 which has an IP address of 10.172.4.1. All these SVI are defined on the core switch.
Is there any way I can introduce a new VLAN lets say VLAN 40 and use PBR to route the packets going to VLAN 40 in the IP range 192.168.1.x to VLAN 999 and 10.172.4.1 to VLAN 20? I have tried this already and it is not working. Here are the configurations I have used.
Access-list 110 permit ip 10.172.4.0 0.0.0.255 any access-list 120 permit ip 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 any route-map INT_RVLAN permit 10 match ip address 120 110 set ip next-hop 192.168.1.123 10.172.4.1 interface VLAN 40 ip policy route-map INT_RVLAN
I have Layer_3 " 3750-x " , so I can't do any routing on the switch , so if I need to Upgrade the IOS what is the proffered image that support hte routing , and Is it free or should I pay?
i have linksys modem which already running for differents vlans i cerated another different vlans 10 amd 20 for 10 and 20 i need internet how should i configure internet on another core switch3750
