Cisco Wireless :: Connect Two 2960 Switches In Two Separate Buildings?
Feb 22, 2013
I am having a problem in connecting two Cisco 2960 Switches between two different buildings using Cisco WLC 2504 & 3 Wireless 1552S APs.
- One AP is directly connected to Switch - 1 where WLC is connected and serving as a RAP
- Another one is working as Mesh in the field.
- Third one is a Mesh Access Point wired to another Switch - 2. (Bridging is enabled)
All the APs, WLC & switches are in the same network 10.3.x.x subnet mask : 255.255.240.0?WLC is working with default management interface whereas switches are having VLAN1 configured as default VLAN.All the port for the switches are Trunk ports?Once i am trying to ping the RAP or any MAP from Switch - 1 I am sucessful but once i am pinging Switch - 2, its not replying. Similar is that case from Switch - 2 side.

I have two cabinets in a datacenter with four available cross connect cables. I would like to set up two LAGs between the two switches each of which will carry one vlan across to the other. My default vlan contains all of my servers on it (10.0.0.0/8), and my backup vlan (192.168.200.0/24) will only be used for iscsi traffic and data backups. At the moment, I have one cable connecting the two switches and it works fine for the default vlan. When I add in a second cable and set it to vlan 200, no matter what settings I try it just doesn't pass traffic. I've made several attempts to get the second connection working, tagged, untagged, trunk, access, etc.

I've been in a home office for the past 2 years with 30mb internet, but I will be getting an office soon downtown. The building I'm moving into has free wifi, what is my best option to connect to this with my desktop?
1. Using an ethernet cable from my desktop to my ASUS rt-56n router as a bridge to connect to the buildings wifi.
2. Buying a wireless adapter to connect to the buildings wifi.
My phone only gets 2 bars when connecting so I'd like to know which of the options above will give me a faster and more reliable connection.

I have an existing stack of 4 x 2960-S switches connected by stack cables.I would like to add another 2960-S switch to the stack but am unable to as the 2960-S will only allow 4 x 2960-S switches per stack.how I would add the 5th 2960-S switch to the existing stack of 4 x 2960-S switches.

We have 2 separate networks here, 1 for data (192.168.0.x) and 1 for VOIP phones (192.168.3.x).
I need them to both be connected to different ports on a switch (Cisco SG 300 10 port managed switch) which is then linked to another switch (Cisco Catalyst 2960 48 port switch). Then on this 2960 switch I want the link to be split back into the 2 separate networks. I think that I need to create 2 separate VLANs and assign them to different ports.

I'm trying to set up 2 separate networks in my home, both of which have access to the internet through a single ISP.I have set up my networks using 2 routers as described in the "Version 2" scenario found here: url...The problem is, a computer connected to the LAN side of Router 2 is able to ping and map shared folders on computers connected to the LAN side of Router 1. According to the writeup (last paragraph), this should not be the case.I have been over the setup multiple times to ensure it is per the writeup but each time, I am able to ping and map.Is there some additional router/computer settings that I may be missing?FWIW, here's my take on what is happening (with the ping): When a computer on the LAN side of Router 2 (submet 192.168.1.x) does a ping to a computer on the LAN side of Router 1 (subnet 192.168.0.x), Router 2 sends the request to its Default Gateway (since it's a different subnet).Router 1 however, recognizes this as its LAN side subnet and forwards the request to that computer. The ping response is then routed back from Router 1 to Router 2.

Created 2 separate VLANs on SGE2010P switch. Neither in Native VLAN 1.
For example;
-Port g01 in VLAN 56
-Port g25 in VLAN 56
-Port g10 in VLAN 10
-Port g37 in VLAN 10
All appears to work well within the respective VLAN (i.e. DHCP, ARP, etc. no IPs from other VLANs)STP - Spanning Tree is Globally disabled.
However; when I feed a n new network (which has STP enabled) into VLAN 10; I then plug a laptop with wireshark running into VLAN 56 - cannot see any other traffic/packet...except STP packets coming from a CISCO device on VLAN 10 while I am plugged into VLAN 56.
This demonstrates to me the network is not truely seperated. I know this because last night I crossed two networks and caused havoc; ouch.I configed a D-Link switch with the same scenario and no issue.

I have a 4-port Netgear modem/router (DG834), and need to distribute its Internet connection according to the following criteria:
1.There are 11 access points (3 wired, 8 wireless) across 4 floors of a building - all cabling is from a central point, which will connect through a switch.Cat 5e cabling is in place.
2.The wireless points need Power over Ethernet connections
3.The 4 router ports serve 2 PC's and a printer in an office, the fourth being the connection to the switch.
4.There must be network separation so that:
- all points have Internet access
- there are three separate groups - one for the office, one for staff (wired) and one for guests (the wireless points), the purpose being to ensure that no user in one group can access any user's device in the other 2 groups. I'm assuming VLAN is the method for this.
5.Traffic on the network is likely to be fairly low casual use of the wireless ports, the office PC's only being used for Internet access and email no transactional systems, large databases or other resource / network-intensive functions.
1.Both the Netgear FS726TP and GS724TP look as if they will do what I want, using WNAP210 wireless access points. Could I achieve the same outcome with 2 x GS108PE switches? Any other hardware recommendations?
2.Do I need any additional hardware?
3.Are there any other considerations I have not thought of?

We have a two separate businesses in the same building who will both need access to shared resources and the same internet connection. They will need to remain on separate subnets and cannot communicate directly to each other. The current switch is a Cisco ESW-520-48P and we are looking at purchasing an SG-300-20P for the new business moving in. Heres how we envisage setting it up:
ESW-520 will host Company A's network. Workstations, servers etcSG-300 will have two VLANS. VLAN1 will host all Company B's network. Workstations, servers etc. VLAN2 will host the shared resources such as printers. The internet gateway is a UNIX based system with 3 NICS. 2 NICS are taken up by ADSL connections while the other NIC is the LAN, which would connect to VLAN2 on the SG-300. We would like to define which ADSL connection to route through depending on which subnet traffic is originating. The ESW-520 will need access to the shared resources and internet gateway on VLAN2 on the SG-300.

I have 2 of these in a Bridge between 2 buildings. Cisco support replaced them with 2 BRAND NEW units after 6 weeks of waiting, that do the same thing. Spent so many hours on these turds it is insane. the thing goes down with the wind, tinker with it and maybe you will be up for a few hours or days then back to down again. Thinking it has something to do with the firmware or a power saving thing. Works great when it is up though. I am still trying stuff to get it to work stable. To much money invested in them now to start from scratch but they wanted budget equipment in place and not Cisco Aironet.

I currently have WLC 5508 and a few campuses with LAP 1142, each with 2-3 vlan. Now one of our campuses have a building thas is a bit far away and needs network (wired). We can't get fiber or TP-cable there in a good way. So the plan is to get two 1262 or 3500 with AIR-ANT5160NP-R antennas and get a wireless link working between the campus and the building. And then connect one of the AP's to a switch in the other building to provide it with wired network.
The problem is that I can't find information on how to do it. Should both APs be in autonomus mode? I probably only need to have 1 VLAN in the other building but I am not sure yet. Is there a problem with transfering several VLAN over the WLAN-link?

I have 2 - 1410 bridges ( point to point) between two buildings approx 600' apart. They seem to be aligned well ( Signal -52dBm, SNR 41 ) and have been very reliable. However, I cannot seem to run more than 26Mbps thru them.is there any recommended tweaking that can increase my throughput ?

I have an issue with a Cisco 3750 switch stack which is connected to two seperate upstream Cisco 3750's which are administered by an ISP. The ISP is experiencing MAC address flapping from one of my VLAN SVI's i am using to route traffic upstream
[code]...
As you can see I utilise a VLAN SVI to route traffic to the upstream 1.1.1.2 (illustration only) IP. As per the diagram of the topology attached, the ISP is receiving a MAC address flapping error confirming the SVI MAC address from my switch stack is being learnt on the trunk port connecting switch 1 and switch 2, and also the port (Gi1/0/48) directly connected to my switch stack. As these are all Layer 2 links essentially being passed upstream and then connected between the two ISP switches, we have a 3 way triangular loop formed.
If I was to remove the port channel configuration from the two ports associated with the VLAN SVI, am i right in suggesting this would still form a layer 2 loop? The two ports would still be a member of the SVI VLAN, and it is the VLAN MAC address which is being learnt by the two ISP switches on different interfaces.

I have a 2960S switch and nine (9) 300 switches. I have three VLANs configured on them, data, voice and management. Each 300 has unique data and ovice VLANs corresponding to their locations. All of the 300 switches connect to the 2960 in a hub and spoke network topology via 802.1q trunks. I can access devices between switches on the data and voice VLANs fine from any other switch. My issue is that from any 300 switch I can access the 2960 management VLAN interface without a problem, but I can not access the 300 switch management VLAN that I am connected to from the CLI. I do not use the GUI at all for management.

My fiance recently signed up for the Screen-wise Panel for Google research. Basically they monitor your TV usage and your internet usage. As part of the program they installed a Cisco WIFI router. I've got no issue with them logging the sites visited etc but I'm a little worried about them possible collecting private information (banking / work related stuff) that I don't want going out there. According to what I've read what's supposed to happen is they replace your router with the new Cisco router.The "technician" who came in and installed the router was actually a builder and not an IT technician and rather than replace our router he connected the Cisco router into port 4 of our router... I wasn't in at the time.
What I was looking to do is separate Port 4 of my router into a separate VLAN that can access the internet, but not access anything on ports 1-3, or the wireless. However, I want to be able to see everything on port 4 from the other side (in other words I want to see "into" the port 4 VLAN, but don't want them to see out). I also wanted DHCP to assign IP addresses correctly depending on where you were plugged in. In this example the first VLAN (your current router ip address) is going to be on 192.168.1.1, and the second VLAN (the new on we create on port 4) is going to be on 192.168.2.1.This is exactly what I'm looking to do, I could then connect the kids machines / tablets / ipods to the Cisco router and have the main machine and my work laptop on the main router... but I don't have a clue how to do it. </quote> Is this something that I am able to do with the Netgear router I own and is it hard to set up?

Two buildings on same farm property 660 feet apart. Cable internet to one building does not reach 660 feet to second building and the cable company will not put it in. Wireless between the buildings is not out of the question; but, I've never done anything this distance before and I am concerned that signal loss over 660 feet might degrade throughput.
So, what is a feasible way of getting the signal from the first building 660 feet to the second building?

I have to setup my first flex stack and wanted to make sure I do it right. I have the physical aspect of the stack down. From what I gathered I have to setup the master switch as the highest priority and then provision the other two switches. But I have configs on the other two switches, do I have to delete them? And do I have to setup individual ips for the two slave switches, because from what I saw the master switch is the only one with an ip address? The master switch is a poe 2960S-48LPS and the two other switches are 2960G-48TD

We had a new building thats gone up and complete now and we're trying to get a ip phone working down that end of the school on a vlan. We seem to be having trouble with the VLAN going through on the 2960 switch but it works fine on our core 3560 switch.
There looks like a slight variation in the config of the switches, the 3560 switch supports the "switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q" command on the interface where as the 2960 doesn't support the "switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q". Is this why the vlan is working on the 3560 and not the 2960, or is it something else?
Both switches are using the 12.2 IOS
Heres the trunk port configured on the 3560 going down to the new building and connecting into the 2960 with a 1gbit fiber link
interface GigabitEthernet1/2 description 3560X Port UpLink as Trunk Mode switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q switchport mode trunk udld port storm-control broadcast level 60.00 spanning-tree guard root
Heres the trunk port configured on the 3560 going to a Linksys switch which then connects to the DHCP server (The other end of the 3560 is also configued as trunk)
interface GigabitEthernet0/6 description Edge Switch port for clients switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q switchport mode trunk spanning-tree portfast
Heres the working vlan port on the 3560, the ip phone is able to get an ip and ring all other phones etc
interface GigabitEthernet0/7 description Edge Switch port for clients switchport access vlan 2 switchport mode access spanning-tree portfast
Ok now heres the config for the 2960
Heres the trunk port configured on the 2960 going back upto the 3560 switch
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/25 description Port UpLink as Trunk Mode switchport mode trunk udld port storm-control broadcast level 60.00
Heres the access port configured on the 2960 which isn't passing on vlan information. Is there another command i need to use to enable encapsulation as dot1q?
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/19 description Edge Switch port for clients
switchport access vlan 2 switchport mode access spanning-tree portfast

I've recently lost my ability to access the internet at uni and as this is quite an inconvenience I am considering some alternatives, the most viable one I've managed to come up with hinges on the fact that I live in a building which is only a road and another building away from the main uni buildings (3 buildings on 2 city blocks), basically it looks like this: UNI BUILDING 1 | UNI BUILDING 2 |ROAD| UNI BUILDING 3 |ROAD| MY APARTMENT.So I'm thinking of building one of these: url.. or waiting for the r20000g (dual band) to come out and buying that.THEN the area I'm having a bit of trouble with: I need to get reception about 600-700m away through buildings, so I've been looking at Yagi antennas and such but can't seem to find any information on the following:
1. Will a high powered directional antenna go through a few buildings and still make it 1km (.6 miles)
2. How directional is a directional antenna? like if I point one in the general direction of the building how accurate do I have to be? (I have no problem buying 4-5 antennas if I need to)
3. Do I need a new Wi-Fi antenna for my laptops? it seems odd to me that a laptop would be able to transmit back 1km while I need a giant antenna to get to the laptop (I know its not this simple but it still seems odd)

We have 3 layer LAN architecture, layer 1 of 6500(IP routing), layer 2 of 4500(L2 switch only), layer 3 of 2960(L2 Switch)In a Single (2960 and 4500) Switch Port Avaya IP phone and PC are connected.Now, the requirement is that, Qos need to be configured for Voice traffic and Data traffic should be in default class of service.We plan to use COS value in Switch 4500 and 2960. We made a sample configuration as below
### For 4500 Switch
class-map match-all VOIP-Access-2MB
match cos 3 5
class-map match-all VOIP-Uplink-20MB
match cos 3 5
[code].....
check these configurations are correct as per standard and if there is any other method of configuration?What need to be configured in L3 Switch(6500)??In 2960, it doesn't support ingress QoS, what impact it will make when compare to 4500? do users experiance any difference?

We're testing the reference system shown in the figure below. System Description Four 2960 switches are used for transport;Equipment 1 and Equipment 2 exchange packets for synchronization;To reach synchronization Equipment 1 and 2 must exchange data with a very low jitter. 2960 Configuration details Four our test puprose, we're using 100Mbit/s ports (22 and 23) as trunk.In order to obtain minimum jitter We performed these configurations:We Enabled QoS;We Marked Synchronization packets with CoS 7 and DSCP 63;We marked other kind of traffic inserted in different ports) with CoS 0;We set "trust DSCP" on trunk ports;On the trunk ports we mapped traffic with CoS 7/DSCP 63 (and only this) on output queue 1;We enabled the expedite queue (priority-queue out). QuestionWith these settings we aim at forcing our synchronization packtes to precede other kind of traffic and go from Equipment 1 to Equipment 2 with minimum jitter.Unfortunately we experienced high jitter when both synchronization packets and other traffic are sent through the systems.
