Distributed Forwarding Card For Supervisor Engine 2T
Dec 23, 2011
I was looking to 6500 series switches. I saw DFC4 module (WS-F6K-DFC4-A, WS-F6K-DFC4-AXL) and (WS-F6K-DFC4-E, WS-F6K-DFC4-EXL). Data sheet for supervisor engine 2T wrote that for maximum performance you should DFC4. I'm a bit confused. I didn't any useful information about it:
1. DFC4 is a separate module(consumes 1 slot)? Does it have any ports on it?
2. Is it a daughter card? If yes, should it be installed on supervisor or it should be installed on line cards?
i have a standalone SUP720, no traffic is passing through it. only one port connected for remote telnet, its kind of backup device.today i checked its log, and there are some wiered message.is it a software bug or my SUP has gone bad? [code]
Removing and Installing a Supervisor Engine on a cisco router 7690 and more important IOS upgrade of this module.
I need some kind of manual, but I would prefer a short procedure to do this change. A brief of the steps to do that. Also i don't if i have to upgrade the new module after install it.

I have a strange issue with 4500 E chassis loaded with SUP 7L-E which always remains in ORANGE LED status, also the uplink ports interface is down and the line protocol is down but when i execute the command sh int gig1/5 it show me the media type sfp but there is no red laser light seen in the sfp transiever,The below command is configured for the uplink gig port on the SUP engine.hw-module uplink select gigabitethernet?
We have a scenario with 2 chassis, both with 2 supervisor Engine 2T, we try to make a configuration of VSS with the chassis and would link to know if is possible have 2 supervisor on chassis one and 2 supervisors on chassis 2 with VSS?
Router#sho switch virtual redundancy My Switch Id = 1 Peer Switch Id = 2 Last switchover reason = active unit removed Configured Redundancy Mode = sso Operating Redundancy Mode = sso
[code]....
would like to use the second supervisors for obteind the local redundancy en chassis 1 and 2, this is possible?
the actually version on four supervisors is: s2t54-ipservicesk9-mz.SPA.150-1.SY3.bin
I have configured the VSS in two cisco 6509-E series with only one supervisor engine, but if i configured with two supervisor engine. it is going to common mode. One supervisor engine is 3c and 3cxl.
I have an older 4006 with a Supervisor II+. We now need OSPF support, which the Sup II+ does not provide. I have access to a Supervisor III (WS-X4014), which will provide OSPF support. Question is, are there any gotchas to shutting down the switch, replacing Supervisor Engines and then powering up? What about the flash card? On my current system, it appears that I am only using bootflash: , which is where the IOS resides (see below). Since my startup config is in nvram and my IOS is in bootflash, what's the purpose of the flash card in slot0: ? and where does NVRAM and bootflash actually live on a 4006 ( on the Supervisor Engine?)
sh bootvar BOOT variable = bootflash:cat4500-ipbase-mz.122-31.SGA11.bin,1;,1; CONFIG_FILE variable does not exist BOOTLDR variable does not exist
I buy a Cisco 4003 Switch with Supervisor Engine I but it only run CatOs and i whant it to run Cisco IOS so whitch Supervisor Engine can the Cisco 4003 Switch run? i have look at the Supervisor Engine III it can run Cisco IOS and Layer 3 but can i use that in my Cisco 4003 switch?
On an existing 4500 switch with a single sup 6-E, another sup 6-E is added. But the second sup6-E comes up as synchronised with active and in a few minutes time, reloads again. the software is 12.2(44) is the same on both sup engines. the redundancy sso output shows that slot6 is disabled.
Our company will go to buy a core switch 4503. What is the difference between the Catalyst 4500 E-Series Supervisor 7L-E and the Catalyst 4500 E-Series Supervisor 7-E?
I have a 4507R with a WS-X4515 supervisor V. It was booting into rommon mode, so I attempted to boot to an IOS image from TFTP. The boot process hangs at at the end of the below output and the then the status light blinks orange. I left it sit like this overnight, and it remained the same.
There is a Cisco Catalyst 6513 in my office. Recently we decided to setup redundant Supervisor Engine 720-3B. When we did it, its became STANDBY COLD, and then it reloads. IOS is equal on both supervisors. It must be STANDBY HOT (SSO) redundancy. There is a configuration and show ver and show module outputs, and log of my actions.
we have Supervisor Engine 720 10GE (VS-S720-10G) in slot 5 on Catalyst 6509-E. Slot 6 is free. We need to replace VS-S720-10G. Is it possible the following scenario
1. we will insert new VS-S720-10G into the slot 6 2. then we will remove the faulty VS-S720-10G from the slot 5
Will everything work without interuptions. Is any document where I can find step-by-step procedure how to replace VS-S720-10G ?
In my 6513 switch chassis we have two Supervisor Engines 720 one is marked Active other as Hot. what is the diffrence in their mode as by name I suppose that Active one is currently in use and Hot one is in standby mode.They are showing in this manner.
We are expanding out LAN network with more 2960 access switches. All the access switches are suppose to be connected to core switch (4507R) but i have less port on the core switch.
On the core switch we have two supervisor engines (WS-X4515 ---description : "Supervisor IV with 2 1000BaseX GBIC ports"). I can see that on each supervisor engine i have two 1 GB SFP ports available and if i calculate for two supervioser engine i will have 4 1GB ports.
But at particular time only one supervisor engine is active and other is in standby mode (redundancy mode used is SSO between two SUP engines).
Can i used all 4 SFP ports for connecting 4 uplinks to the 4 access switch?Will all the 4 SFP ports active at one time or only 2 SFP ports will be active that is for only active supervisor engine.
We bought Cisco sup engine WS-SUP32-GE-3B for 6500 switches 2 nos for redundancy. I have connected 6 systems on each sup engine ports. How to clarify whether both sup engine will forward the data while one is Master and other is standby?
We've got a doubt about the uplink ports of this supervisor. I've read that you have to use the four ports in 10G mode or in 1G mode, but not use for example 1 port in 10G mode and 1 port in 1G mode:
But, you can read in another sentence: " Beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)SG, you could simultaneously deploy the dual 10-Gigabit.Ethernet ports and the four Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports on the Catalyst 4503, Catalyst 4506, and Catalyst 4507R chassis." Is it posible deploy simultaneously both type of ports?
I've 4500 Core Switch with 4507R chassis, Sup V-10GE(WS-X4516-10GE) along with 2 WS-X4306-GB line Cards, but now I require a line card for 14 more fiber up links and I cannot go with 3 of 4306 as there are only 2 slots left. I've checked and found that E series line cards does not work with Sup V Engine.
As per the link below, I found that "WS-X4448-GB-SFP" is compatible..
Problem I have encountered when upgrading a Cisco 6509 chassis with a new supervisor card from Sup2 to Sup 720b. The 6509 loads and then crashes completely, and when rebooted reloads into rommon.The same upgrade was performed on a similar switch with no apparent problems.
The first is I have a laptop running XP with a Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-Card built in to it. But for some reason when I'm using that wireless connector my computer won't connect to my router and give me a 192.168.0.x address, it gives me a regular IP address. I can surf the net and everything but I can't access files on other computers. But from it it'll allow me to connect to the router admin fine.Whenever I put the mac address in to my DHCP setting on my router it comes up * RESERVED INACTIVE * and never gives my laptop a local ip address.The other problem is on my 192.168.0.2 computer I've tried to set up port forwarding but it won't open the ports. My router is a Motorola SBG6580 provided by my cable company. This particular computer is connected by Ethernet and not Wifi if that makes a difference.
I have got a very basic/fundamental doubt.I would like to know how a bandwidth gets distributed in switches.for example consider a scenario where i have a coreswitch A and coreswitch B connected between each other througha a 1Giga Fiber now each of my core switche are connected to two edge switches through fiber links. all edge switches have giga ports. now if i connect a pc with giga link in th edge switch of coreswitch A and tansfer a file to a PC connnected to the edge switch in network B.how does the switch allocate/distribute bandwidth?
I just purchased a Dlink DSL-2750U today which I am using with my ADSL connection. I have three wired computers using this connection and no wireless systems at the moment. I would like to know if it's possible to share the bandwidth evenly amongst these three computers? The other two computers are hogging on the bandwidth leaving me with barely anything to work with.
We would like to install a pair of ACS 5.4 apliance as primary /backup in our two datacentres.I have some question regarding degin.
1- We have 800+ network device to monitor , can we install by range of address instead of instlling one by one in device host database ? 2- Do We have to install all 800 device first on Primary and then again on backup or Primary will replicate to backup server? 3- We do not have real IP address yet, so if we built with dummy address and make them pair and all the database sync, then when we change their IP address, will the distributed primary pair will have any issue with backup ACS server?
