Cisco WAN :: How To Get Bootable Image To ME360X Metro Ethernet Switch
Jan 30, 2012
Today my sw upgrade procedure failed on a ME3600 Series switch.
From the past with LAN switches i thought that we need to set IP settings manually in ROMMON and then load remotely an IOS via TFTP.
But it seems that this is not supported there.So now i would like to ask how can i bring a bootable IOS to the ME3600 switch. and at least: how can i bring back my switch to life.
I could imagine that there is a missing default gateway.But what is the syntax for default gateway? And after I have connectivity i need to work for the process of loading a bootable image to the switch.

I curently have 2 Data centers connected with a Metro Ethernet Connection. Each Data Center has 6500 with Sup720s. The Metro Ethernet connection is currently conected by a L3 routed interface. I now need to enable VRFs between the locations and want to determine the best way to adjust the Mero. I was considering adjusting the routed interface to use Ethernet sub-interfaces. Each VRF would be given a different subinterface over the Metro Ethernet connection. I have done this on internal LAN connections but am concerned about exteding across data centers over Metro E.

My company uses a Sonicwall NSA 3500 as it's Firewall/WLAN controller and lightweight Sonicpoints for the private/public WIFI access. We are getting ready to implement wireless at one of our branch locations a few blocks away(We use Metro Ethernet to connect the 2).I know with the current firmware the Sonicpoints can't provision to the Sonicwall NSA over the Metro Ethernet like Cisco lightweight AP's can because the Metro Ethernet strips their VLAN Tags and obviously the Sonicpoints don't support REAP.what other options (short of installing another WLAN controller at the remote site) do I have to connect the AP's at the WLAN controller at our main location.

We are in the process of upgrading the bandwidth at a few offices. Each currently have a 2xT-1 connection but have high utilization on the circuit which is why they are being upgraded. We are trying to decide b/t either a partial DS3 or metro ethernet connection. Are there pros/cons b/t the two in order to decide which to go with? Cost is not an issue. Some say going with a partial DS3 circuit offers benefits over metro ethernet such as network-based failover, end-to-end availability is better with DS-3 and QoS.

I am planning on implementing a metro ethernet circuit to replace a more expensive circuit to connect my office and data center. This circuit will be configured by the provider in a 'transparent' manner, which will allow us to pass vlans freely over the circuit without having to create a QinQ tunnel. This is a layer 2 only metro ethernet circuit.Planning on connecting the office end to a 3750 (switch A) and the data center end to a 2960 (switch B). The data center end will have a couple of other 2960s hanging off of it for server connectivity (switches C & D). I plan to use a 2811 (router A)for layer 3 connectivity in the data center. Switch B will plug into router A and switches C & D will plug into switch B using two port-channelled links. I can post a diagram if needed.I will use rpvst here and configure switch B as the root bridge.There are about 10 vlans that I use between the office and data center. Router A is also used to connect to other environments such as staging, production and also to the internet. I think this should be a straight-forward configuration since it is mostly layer 2. Should switch B be the root bridge?

I am trying to configure a new metro ethernet and have some questions about the configuration. The physical layout is a main office and two remote locations. The remote sites are point-to-point connections to the main office, tagged by the ISP with VLAN 130 and VLAN 140. The connections aggregate into one handoff at the main office, and are plugged into Catalyst 3750-X switches at all three sites.

I am preparing to move two branch offices from a point to point T1 connection to Century Link Metro Ethernet.Currently my branch locations connect to my HQ 7204 router via a channelized DS3. I have a 4507R at HQ that I will connect the ME circuit to.We will also be moving our Internet connection on the ME circuit.Our service provider Clink will hand me a single Ethernet handoff for the Internet and branch office connections. For the first phase I will connect one branch office using ME. Once that is in place and tested we will move another office and so on. Then our final step is to move our web connection to the ME circuit.Each branch office has their own unique voice and data subnet. They each have a 2801 router and a 3560 switch. The routers are MGCP gateways with only one PSTN connection, a POTs 911 line on a FXO port.
So my questions are;
1 - Should I connect the ME directly in to the 3560 at the branch offices or use the Fa0/1 on the 2801? Fa0/0 is currently connected to the 3560.
2 - On my 4507R at HQ how will I configure the ME switch port? As a dot1q trunk port?
3 - Given that ME is basically a LAN connection will I have to re IP the branch office? HQ is 10.10.1.x/24. Branch is 10.10.166.x/24 (data) 192.168.166.x/24 (voice).
4 - On the 4507R will I need to configure a vlan interface for each branch subnet?
I attached two network diagrams. One represents our current topology (MEexisting) and the second represents the new ME circuit changes (MEprojected).

I am looking for an IP Services IOS image for a WS-C3750E-24TD-E switch.Currently have a two switch stack composed of WS-C3750E-24TD-E & WS-C3750G-12S-E.Current IOS running: IP Base.
I need to be able to remove the stub mode for EIGRP, so I am looking for an IP Services image for WS-C3750E-24TD-E switch to be able to run full EIGRP. But I am not able to find one. What is the main difference between WS-C3750G & WS-C3750E switch?Is this even possible for the WS-C3750E?

I inadvertantly copy the wrong image on to a 35609-X switch and now it gets stuck in a particular mode.
The original image was: c3560e-universalk9-mz.122-53.SE2/c3560e-universalk9-mz.122-53.SE2.bin and I replaced it with: c3560e-universalk9npe-mz.122-55.SE1.bin ( this is what the download site identifies as the image for 3560X-24P-S)
It now sticks at: Front-end Microcode IMG MGR: Programming device 0...rrrrrrwssssssssssssssssssspssssssssssssssss
How can I get back on to delete this image? It ignores the break key.

I've 3750X switch that isn't loading email. then I went to rommon mode and accidently for "format flash". after that I loaded 15.0 SE2 s/w on it using tftp server but it doesn't boot up with that image. flash had only .bin file after I loaded it from tftp server.
since it wasn't booting up, I did format flash again and thought to load image again from tftp server but now, it doesn't load image from tftp server.

I installed an SG 200-26 switch this weekend, and now I have a problem scanning from our Canon Imagerunner printer/scanners to any IP address on our network. It's not a DNS issue as the address book entries contain the destination computer IP address.

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?

I have a 50 Mbps metro ethernet connection between our main office, and our collocation site, where we store web servers, DR equipment and VPN access gateways. I have two Cisco 3845 ISR's connected to the metro E circuit. The interfaces on each router are configured as 100/full as requested by my ISP. We are connected via ethernet to a fiber media converter.
As I understand, CBFWQ will not kick in until congestion occurs on an interface. I also understand that the bandwidth command on an interface is to provide bandwidth related information to upper level protocols (like EIGRP, etc).
My question is that since the interface where I have CBWFQ configured on is at 100 Mbps, but my circuit is at 50Mbps, how can I get my routers to kick CBWFQ in when traffic demand exceeds 50Mbps+? Does the bandwidth command on the interface control that as well?

I recently ran into some problems concerning the use of a Cisco layer 3 switch (3560) as an Internet edge device to perform a simple static route between the customers network and the ISP POP router. Although this device can perform the routing at the edge for Internet traffic, I am concerned that this device has limitations when it comes to functions such as traffic shaping to the subscribed bandwidth of the Metro Ethernet access to the Internet. Since the 3560 could not conform to the 20 Mbps of subscribed bandwidth, any traffic beyond 20 Mbps was dropped causing performance issues with applications that use TCP. I am trying to find design documents or white papers that would either support or not support using a layer 3 switch as an Internet perimeter device instead of a router. I would like to know if Cisco has a specific perspective on this subject and whether or not they would ever recommend actually using a layer 3 switch model that is a 37XX or below?

going through the article below looks like its not supported

What are the options I have next ? Can I upgrade to LMS 3.3 or only do an upgrade for DFM ?
Want to avoid LMS 4 as that's an installation from scratch.

I have been reading for awhile now on all the Cisco forums on the 3560 and shaping egress traffic but I wanted to verify my thoughts on this. I have 3560 that connects to the ISP that is policing at 10Megs, I want to shape my egress traffic going to the ISP, I do not want to provided QOS to any specific traffic type but only shape all traffic outbound. Will my config below shape "all" egress traffic going to the ISP on the 3560, on a port that is physically connect at 100Meg Full duplex?
int gi0/1
srr-queue bandwidth shape 40 40 40 40
I gathered these numbers using the formula of 100* 1/weight, which would equal 2.5 and if each queue has 2.5 meg that would = 10Meg. However another concern is that I don't think I have the full 100Meg on the interface to use (correct?)

I have a Ethernet module (SM-ES3G-16-P) installed in a 3945 router and noticed during first boot no licenses are active at all. I would assume at a mimimum ipbase would be active. With this module, does static routing work with just ipbase?
Example:
interface g0/1
no switchport
ip addr 192.168.254.2 255.255.255.0
[code]....
