Cisco WAN :: Connect 7206 And 3900 Series Routers Through Fiber?
Jun 4, 2013
We are migrating from a Microwave T1 WAN to a Fiber ring WAN which I'll be connecting to our providers Ciena Metro E switches. Eventually we are going to move away from the routers, but the network is a little too complex as well as spanned across a lot of miles. Since I am the only networking personnel here, I would like to first simply migrate to the fiber by simply moving the connection configs off of the T1 interfaces, and onto one of the Gig interfaces on the 7206 and on one of the Fe interfaces on the 3900 (which is actually a 3700 series because the line card on the 3900 is toast). If this works, I will need to purchase Fe line cards for the 7206, because I found out that the virtual interfaces do not support Policy Mapping for our QOS and Multicasting.

Is there a router (1900-3900 series router) that will support a 100FX fiber connection. We use to use 2800-3800 and 2600-3700 series routers with FX fiber interface now these routers are no longer available and our need for 100Mbps FX is still a requirement.

I am setting up a DMVPN between several dozen sites using 2800, 2900 and 3900 series ISRs. The DMVPN Design Guide recommends current 12.4 or 12.4T IOS, but the DG was last updated in July 2008. I cannot seem to find any recommendations newer than this. I'm hoping Cisco or the community can give me an updated recommendation.

Am trying to do a dynamic configuration of a 3900 series router (3925 to be precise).For the software and licenses, under the IOS technology Package Licenses, what's the significant of SL-39-DATA-K9 and SL-39-SECNPE-K9? Are they really necessary for the router?

I am looking for the procedure of the router 3900 series failover. I have got two 3900 series router with the same ISO and other interface cards. What are the main things that I should watch ? Does the standby router takes the same ip of active router if the active router fails ? How should I configure it.

My Draytek 2710 just dies after 2 years so I was looking for something a little more reliable and noticed the spec of the SRP527W-U.I take it with only one antenna and reading a couple of past discussions, the wireless will only manage n-lite as some people call it i.e. 150Mbps, and not the full 300? Oh, and are the ports still only 100M and not Gig?I know the 547 would tick both these boxes but we are talking twice the price. How does the quality and logevity of the SRP500 series compare to the RV series (which would need an adsl modem) or the Linksys boxes?

I need to know exactly how much bandwidth my service provider is giving me throught an MPLS network. My providers tells me that I am capped at 5 mbps with 4 T1 circuits but I believe that I am receiving 6 mbps.
I have a remote site in Dallas with a 2850 and another site as a head end in Michiagan which is a 7206 router.
What exactly can I do during non-business to test to see what the bandwidth is between the 2 locations? Is there some type of command that I can run on the router to test this?

I've recently upgraded from a 512k adsl connection to a 16mb fiber optic connection.Whereas I never had a problem previously, my rvs4000 slows to a crawl once or twice per week. The only solution seems to be to cycle the power since the admin interface freezes. I also have to cycle the power on my two wireless ap to get them back up.I believe I have the latest firmware, is this a common problem on a faster connection?

We recently moved to a new office and currently have three ISPs(DSL, SAT, 4G) because we are unable to get Cable nor Fiber services. We have anywhere between 7-20 Remote Desktop connections(with lot of file transfers) and 8 VOIP lines. Basically, we need to bind certain services to specific WAN links in order to make everything work somewhat decent because of the limited bandwidth and/or latency of each ISP.
I would like to double check if the bindings are working for the specific services, and it has been difficult to verify if the settings in the RV016 are working. I believe it's not working 100%, and I need a way to check and make sure that my settings are being followed.
What would be the best way to check the current connections to see if the service is being routed via the WAN link specified in my setting? My RV016 is HW ver 3, but not the latest firmware. Purchased about 2 months ago.

When it comes to fiber optics my knowledge is very limited. All I know is that they can carry data at high bandwidth for a long range at blazing speeds etc.My boss has asked me to link several buildings to the network and I am led to believe that joining them through fiber optics to be best since we are expecting a lot of data traffic between.I have done the normal RJ-45 networking with Gigabit networking in my organisation but need your assistance on how to join each of the buildings through fibre optics.So far this is my plan.Draw up the fiber optic lines from the main building to each building.All the buildings have Gigabit Cat6e cabling and network in each.I am planning on using a single mode media converter to convert the end of the fibre optic to the normal RJ45 connector and plug it to each switch at each of the ends of the fiber optic cable .Am I going in the correct direction?I don't even know the gadgematics required except for the cables them selves, crimping tools, the media converter. There is about 300-400 metres in between of each building from the main building.Also, I believe that we need to create cross over cables as in the normal way we do in connecting 2 switches. Your input is very valuable to me.

We have a stack of 2960S, and have a new client that wants to connect via diverse fibre to both switches(From 2 switches on there side). We currently run MST and client is (currently) running PVRST. The 2 links will be trunks (With the same ~5 vlans running over both)
Our "standard" trunk config is:
switchport trunk allowed vlan 228,229,265-268
switchport mode trunk
mls qos trust dscp
storm-control broadcast level 20.00
storm-control action trap
no cdp enable
spanning-tree bpdufilter enable
spanning-tree guard root
So after recommendations on what is needed to avoid L2 loop, and to ensure we force one trunk port to be the "primary" for those vlans, and the the other trunk port to be "backup"?

The core switch is a 6506 and one of the modules is the 48port POE module. The 6506 resides in the main building and we need to interconnect two other annexes to the main building via fibre. is it possible to have just 2 sfp ports on the 48 port module or how to connect the fibre cable to the switch?
Also, if the existent network is made up of Cat5e cables would it be of anyuse to use Cat6 cables for uplink for the switches on each segment to the core switch. I feel basically the Cat5e would nullify the speed of the Cat6 or am i wrong and this would make uplink speed faster.

I have X3000 home gateway and very happy with this device. Use it now as ADSL modem/wifi router. Everything works fine but there is something I do not understand about this device.It has 4 LAN ports and a Cable port. Suppose, I am upgraing from a copper service to fibre. Fibre providers comes and installs their fibre box which is kind of a "modem" for fibre technology. how do I connect fibre box to X3000? Do I use Cable port or a LAN port?
As far as I understand the 4 LAN ports work as switch ports (work at OSI level 2, provide access strictly within same subnet, all devices connected to these ports share the same default gateway), and Cable port gets a different IP address via DHCP or another protocol from the fibre box, or directly from ISP (if we have PPPoE or IPoE service as an example). And there would be no point in plugging WAN link into a LAN port as X3000 would not be able to communicate to the gateway on the other end of the cable.

we bought the Cisco 1921 ISR with the HWIC-1GE-SFP to get a router that would be able to connect via fiber to our switches. I called Cisco and their reps recommended this router/HWIC pair to me.
I have got the basic configuration out of the way and I have discovered my router with CCP, now I would like to know how I can configure this HWIC. I have the SFP(GLC-SX-MM= ) installed correctly and it is connected to our test switch via an LC/LC cable, but when I do 'show ip interface" all ports are down except the one my workstation connects directly to the router with (gigabit0/1).

I have a problem connecting a PC in a TwinGig Convertors (GLC-LH-SM). I want to connect a PC with a fiber cable on the supervisor WS-X45-SUP6L-E of my Switch 4500E.
The default configuration mode is X2. As I want to deploy Gigabit interfaces (that is, use TwinGig Convertors), then I configured the associated port-group:
Switch(config)#hw-module module 1 port-group 2 select gigabitethernet
*Feb 24 06:18:37.125: Port Te1/2: TwinGig Converter inserted: vendor: CISCO
Switch(config)#do sh int status mod 1
Port Name Status Vlan Duplex Speed Type
[code]....
I noted that the Swicth set up automatically 'switchport mode trunk', so i put the command 'swicthport mode access' because i want to connect only a PC. But the status is the same, I can not achieve connectivity. i just want to know how connect a PC in the interface GigabitEthernet1/4 of the supervisor engine of my Switch.

I am trying to connect a SF200-48 switch via Mini-GBIC MGBLX1 fibre module to a Cisco 3750 switch with a GLC-SX-MM fibre module installed both running a 1000 Mbps. When connected together they do not enable. Are there compatibility restrictions or is it that the Mini-GBIC modules cannot be used to uplink to a LAN?

I have been able to put two Linksys routers in series no problem but this doesn't seem to work with an RV042.I have a number of customers that need to connect to a private email network via a router based VPN, but since VPN traffic is not filtered in the firewall, I would like to use an older Linksys router to manage the VPN(s) and have it pass data in through the filters of an RV042 on the DMZ port.I am getting stuck on the very frist part of this. Although I can connect to both the RV042 and LinkSys directly (by adjusting my subnet), I cannot ping the Linksys when it is connected through the DMZ port even if I disable the RV042 Internet port.
I know both the Internet and DMZ ports work on the RV042. I suspected that perhaps the RV won't pass through private IPs and tried known available pubic IPs instead of the 192.168.2.x subnet, but still no ping.What would be limiting the RV in this case? Is is possible to setup the RV to work in series with another router? Is there any other way to filter VPN traffic?
