Cisco Switching/Routing :: How To Upgrade WS-C6509-E IOS
Oct 14, 2012
We would like to install a WS-SVC-WISM2-1-K9 in each of our 2 WS-C6509-E chassis. Both of these have supervisor 720 engines installed. One in each chassis.From what I have read we need to upgrade the IOS to 12.2.33 SXJ4. Is this correct?If this is true then what are the memory requirements for the upgrade to this IOS version. Below is the output from Show version?Is there sufficient memory instqalled to do this install?
We are planning to replace a few line cards in the existing 6509-E chassis. The sup installed is a VS-S720-10G-3C but the line cards are legacy. As a result we are not able to enable the VSS functionality. We are looking to replace the existing line cards with the following:
1. 1 x WS-X6716-10G-3C 2. 1 x WS-X6724-SFP 3. 4 x WS-X6724-GE-TX
What are the requirements in terms of IOS and Roman.
The current IOS is: Cisco IOS Software, s72033_rp Software (s72033_rp-IPSERVICESK9_WAN-M), Version 12.2(33)SXI2a, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2) And the ROM Version is: ROM: System Bootstrap, Version 12.2(17r)SX7, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
we plan to implement VSS on our datacenters (C6509/Sup720), in order to remove L2 loops (currently, access layer are C3750 stacks, which could evoluate for N5K/N2K). I would like to have some feedbacks about VSS stability. Some years ago, I have seen some bugs with this technology in another company, so I am still not totally comfortable to use it in the datacenter.
We plan to implement a large number of ACL on our Distribution switch which is a HSRP pair of 6509C switches running on sup-bootflash:s72033-psv-mz.122-18.SXD3.bin WE need to divide the Network in three layers
unsecure layer Proxy layer Secure layer
We have approximately 250 vlans on the our distribution switches and plan to implement 15 ACL on different vlans Each ACL can contain upto 30 lines or less.
basic ACL example we will be applying on different vlan vlan 200 ip access-group test123 in
My question is Can these ACL on a vlan can have a massive impact on the 6509 CPU ?
I have a 2 cisco core (cisco WS-C6509-E (R7000) processor) and been working for quite sometime.they are conneted with HSRP with active standby config with a 10 g module for redundancy just today I see that the cpu utilization went to about 50% and its the same on both cores.
Last night, the C6509-E do a unexpected reload. In the crashinfo, I can see that the last error message before the reload, was as follows: %C6K_ PLATFORM-SP-2-PEER_RESET: SP is being reset by the RP
I consulted the cisco website about this error message and what I found was the following:C6K_PLATFORM-2.
what should it be the minimum IOS version that I require on my WS-C6509-E equipments to support "logging origin-id" command?
Cisco documentation says that this command was introduced in 12.2(15)T, and integrated into 12.2(33)SXH. BUT my Cisco switches have 12.2(33)SXH5 IOS version......and they do not support "logging origin-id".
(config)#logging ? Hostname or A.B.C.D IP address of the logging host buffered Set buffered logging parameters buginf Enable buginf logging for debugging cns-events Set CNS Event logging level console Set console logging parameters count Count every log message and timestamp last occurance esm Set ESM filter restrictions event Global interface events exception Limit(code)
I operate between c6509-E, what did you flooding? its just packet capture gi1/3 but i dont know it and is it attack?also same seq no switch gots it?what is problem?
we have a WS-C6509-E WITH SUP VS-S720-10G, and IOS s72033-advipservicesk9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI5.bin. [code]
From, what we can see, whenever we try to clear arp-cache, it doesn't remove the IPs from the ARP. We've checked a bug in the IOS 12.2(33)SXH4 with the same issue, in version SXI4 is solved, but I have version SXI5, it is supposed to be fixed, from this caveat CSCtf16300, since it says it was fixed on 12.2(33)SXI4, it should be fixed on SXI5, right ?
Both regular IP traffic and ICMP traffic are passing through the source port. C6509 provides the option of filtering vlan traffic during monitoring. But I don't have vlan traffic.
I have a C6509 with WS-X6548-GE-TX port module. The first port group, 1-8, is showing oversubscription (packets dropping) in the shared buffer. What interface commands can I use to find the specific port causing the buffer overflow?None of the ports is continuously overutilized and none of them in a SPAN destination group.I don't want to move connections without knowing which one is causing the problem. Also I fear that moving the connections may shift the bleeding to another shared port group.
I have been looking at grading the IOS version on our 6509-E however there is not enough space on disk:0 to upgrade to the version I need to install. The question I would like to ask is - is it possible to boot the IOS from a TFTP server? If this is possible what configuration do I need on the 6509 to enable this. How does the 6509 know about the TFTP server as an IOS is not installed and therefore it will not have a network configuration
I have Cisco WS-C6509 with IOS version 12.2(18)I have several vlan interface on this device.Today I create new vlan intervace
interface Vlan165 description test5 ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.252 end
and vlan:
VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------- 165 test5 active Gi7/14
But I can't ping this IP address and show ip route shows:
sh ip route 10.10.10.1 Routing entry for 10.10.10.0/24 Known via "static", distance 254, metric 0 (connected)
I have static route for this subnet /24?I can not see any error in logs, but looks like I reached vlan interface limit on this device or something like this.How can I check it?
I am trying to figure out what is heat dissipation of a C6509-E configured as follows:
1 x WS-C6509-E-FAN 1 x VS-S720-10G-3C 1 x VS-F6K-PFC3C 8 x WS-X6748-GE-TX 8 x WS-F6700-DFC3C 2 x WS-CAC-6000W
I have tried two ways: 1) the power calculator and 2) manual calculation using the C6500 installation guide.
1) The power calculator says 13630 BTU/h 2) Manual calculation says: [code]
The there should be also the two PS in the picture, and the new total should be: [code] Well, 62711 BTU/h looks quite a bit too much and I think that the heat dissipation of the power supply should't be considered in the calculation.Isn't it an item that takes power from the grid and that generates heat according to its efficiency as the other modules?
Network newbie need to verify all necessary services and protocols on a new WS-C6509-E are turned on. This layer 3 switch will be used to connect to servers.
We have two c6509 budled in VSS. I have noticed randomly high usage of CPU, sometimes up to 99% in peaks. I have found that it can be generated by SNMP engine. So I unconfigure all SNMP things. But situation is the same. I would like to know if this state is OK or not. CPU shows are enclosed in file.
We are facing issue of getting very high CPU utilization for the VSS Switch model WS-C6509-E some times approx 100%.Attaching here show tech-support taken later after CPU normal along with show logging, show cpu sorted.HCAINNOI01XXXCS0001#sh proces cpu | ex 0.0%CPU utilization for five seconds: 100%/13%; one minute: 90%; five minutes: 91%PID 5Sec 1Min 5Min Process16406 91.2% 75.2% 76.2% ios-base16426 1.7% 1.4% 1.4% udp.proc16429 0.3% 0.3% 0.3% raw_ip.proc16432 2.8% 3.1% 3.1% cdp2.iosproc
we have cisco WS-C6509-V-E with IOS version 12.2(33)SXI4; s3223_rp_IPSERVICESK9_WAN_M) running on a switch. I am trying to configure the command "mac-address-table synchronize" under global config mode. But when I enter the command Cisco(config)#mac-address-table ?It doesn't show the synchronize option?
I am trying to find a command for dhcp snooping rate-limiting on a CatOS. The PFC card is PFC. PFC3B is said to support that command. But there seems no this command.

I've a big problem with a loss of packets ICMP sent by different hosts in differents VLAN. Here my architecture:
Core Switch : 2 Switch's C6509 (Version 15.0 (1) SY1)- Mode VSS - One lien VSL , the other link is defective.Access Switch: C3750 , Connected to Core Switch through 2 fibre optique wires.Topology: redundant ring
When I send consecutive ping message I found always a missing of packets . Furthermore When I insert the "show ip traffic" command., the parameter "bad hop count" increase after a loss of packets. I've 2 hosts connected in my network and they send packets with TTL =127.
In the Core Switch I haven't configured the MEC because it gave me troubles with the packets multicast.
I have recently configured secondary ip address on LAN Interface of Cisco C6509.. We have some application which needs to use broadcast traffic communication to communicate with client... Broadcast is working within subnet & also working from broadcast server to primary subnet. But not working from secondary subnet.. I have checked broadcast within secondary IP range & it's working fine... Secondary not working broadcast with primary and also with broadcast server... broadcast address is different for these subnet but both should be communicate since configured on same interface... When I went through Cisco website found that command "ip directed broadcast" which will pass broadcast to different subnet... But I'm not sure whether any other impact if I enable that command on particular Ethernet interface...
The OID I am using for module index 6509-E family is not working on 6509 Virtual Switching System(VSS).I have used "1.3.6.1.4.1.9.5.1.3.1.1.1" for single6509- E configuration. How to know OID for module index on VSS environment.
I am trying to upgrade the IOS in 3560 but I am facing one issue. Its flash is 15MB & available space is 8MB whereas the IOS is of 11MB. How can I upgrade the IOS without upgrading the flash?
i'm trying to find information about the licesing of ios package. I need to upgrade a C2911 from 15.1 to 15.2, the router have a permanent uc license, will be that license permanent also after the upgrade? I'm not able to find documentation about when the license need to be reissued after an upgrade or not. I know that for maintenance release upgrade there are not problems but i'm not sure about minor upgrade.
Question for you all regarding a NME-16ES-1G-P installed in a 2811. The NME is running a C3750 image (c3750-ipbase-mz.122-35.SE5.bin). I need to upgrade the IOS and an wondering why the download center is pointing me at C3560 images. I downloaded c3560e-ipbasek9-mz.122-58.SE2.bin and it failed and was stuck in a loop booting and resetting over and over.
I am currently running 12.2 (53) and am looking to move up to the 15+ train. Are there any pre-reqs prior to the upgrade that any one is aware of?Unfortunately I have no "lab environment" to test it in. I have production switches with minimal impact to the campus and if done late night I could have it restored back before open of business the following morning. My FW is up to the latest version and I have found nothing in the release notes specifically stating that there would require any stepped upgrades up to v15 and higher.
I have a 3560, which is being used as our core router that I have recently installed. It still has the standard IOS which came with (C3560E-UNIVERSALK9-M) it but I need to implement policy based routing so need to upgrade it and have downloaded c3560-ipservicesk9-mz.122-58.SE2.bin and indeally would like to install it in the morning before people start work.
I have 2 questions, 1, Is the ipservices capable of PBR as I have been reading conflicting reports, in fact my friend who works for Cisco has advised that it is not possible on the 3560.
2, When I do upgrade will there be any current configurations that are not compatible with the new one, I wouldnt image that there would be any but just wanted to make sure as it would be the biggest headache ever if it went wrong.
I have a couple of 3750G-24T-E switches running IOS 12.2 I would like to upgrade to IOS 15.x. Is this possible? Where do I find some information on the required licenses and costs? I must admit that the cisco search function did come up with a few pages but i was not able to extract the required information. I have not used the new software activation features yet.
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.
