View 4 RepliesI am designing a cabling system to interconnect all the buildings in my school.In one of the building, I have 2 patch panels and switch to interconnect cables that comes into the building with cables that runs to the rooms.From what I understand, connectivity should be something like this:
1. Exterior cables coming in through the entry point.
2. Exterior cables terminates at the back of patch panel.
3. Patch cables run from the front of patch panel to a switch.
4. Patch cables run from the switch to another patch panel which connects the interior cabling that runs to the wall socket in each room.
My question:
1. Which ports should I use on the switch to interconnect exterior cable to the interior cable? They should be a connection between the exterior cabling and the interior cabling and both terminates in the same switch, but different ports. How do you allow communication to happen?
2. How do connect all the buildings to the router that connects to the internet?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just bought this switch off Ebay and I can't seem to find anything online on the physical connection of this switch. It's not like normal switches where it just uses a ethernet type cable that goes to serial, it requires a female to female cable which does not exist anywhere so I ended up buying a gender changer for a normal cable I had but can't seem to get the prompt to come up. I'm using 9600, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bits and no flow control. Do some wires have to be crossed a special way or something or do I need to type anything special in the console to get the prompt? I can't find much online on this switch. At least not as far as serial connectivity goes.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a 5412zl 10.215.x.x/16 Most of the connections on this switch are on vlan1. B9 is the port which is connected to a Cisco 2821 Router. The port on that end is GE0/1. The port on the cisco side is not a trunk but configure with an ip of 10.215.1.30/24 Its part of a some ip access group. The network that i now sit on is a 172.x.x.x/24 (behind cisco router, about 3 hops to that main 2821)We current have a system on my side that talks to a server on the 10.215. that has no issues. I'm trying to access some switches on the 10.215. and have had no luck reaching them.
Here is the access list that i found that port is configured to use:
permit ip 10.215.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.18.0.0 0.0.255.255 permit ip 10.254.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.18.0.0 0.0.255.255 permit ip 10.215.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.14.0.0 0.0.255.255 permit ip 10.254.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.14.0.0 0.0.255.255 permit ip 10.215.0.0 0.0.255.255 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255 permit ip 10.254.0.0 0.0.255.255 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255 permit ip 10.215.0.0 0.0.255.255 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 permit ip 10.254.0.0 0.0.255.255 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 I would think the first permit would allow me to get through to the 10.215 side but maybe i need to set something up on the hp size to let it know how to get back?

How to properly power down the Nexus 5000 and the fabric interconnect switches? I have looked up and down cisco's and google web for steps, but they are all coming back with the answer to just disconnect the power cables after you have power down all the windows os and exs servers. Before i do that, I just wanted to make sure that that's the correct way to do it or if there are actual commands that I will need to run on the devices to properly power down. I know that the FI do have a command to reboot, but i need them to completely be power down.

The network card in my PC supports 1Gbit ethernet, my 2TB NAS also supports 1Gbit ethernet, however both of these are currently run through a 100Mbit cable modem/router thus reducing the connection speed. I was wondering if I purchased a 1Gbit switch and connected all my devices directly into that, then connected it into the cable modem, would the PC communicate with the NAS directly via the switch or would it go through the cable modem?

Now the task is to create a LAN network so all my computers can talk together and have a internet connection shared between them.When I connect Modem to Router and then 4 CPUs to router, it is working fine. The problem is that the router has only 4 ports and that it is 100Mbit slow. I would like to use the HP switch for the LAN setup (1Gbit) and then connect the switch to router and router to modem. But it doesn't work I cannot establish internet connection this way. I'm setting all the settings in my router but it doesn't work as it was in simple setup modem->router->cpu. when I add switch to this, the setup is going berserk.Problem is that I would like to create a LAN only between computers using switch. I have other computers that I want to conect to the router directly and don't see the computers using switch.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a network set up currently with a cable modem that goes into a router, the router then goes to a 16 port switch and the switch goes to computers, printers, and my server.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe setup a home network in our new house but we have a problem with limited connectivity in specific configuration.
There is few situations to describe the problem :
1. If I connect my computer directly to the modem I can access to the internet. (modem --> computer = internet OK)
2. If i connect the ethernet cable (in the wall) between my modem and RJ45 jack in the living room and connect my computer directly to the RJ45 I can access to the internet. (modem --> cat6 cable in the wall --> computer = internet ok)
3. If I connect my router directly (without the cat6 cable in the wall) to the modem and my computer to the the router I can access to the internet. (modem --> router --> computer = internet ok)
4. If i connect the ethernet cable (in the wall) between my modem and RJ45 jack in the living room and connect to router to the RJ45 and my computer to the router I CANNOT access to the internet. (modem --> cat6 cable in the wall --> router --> computer = internet access problem)
5. If i connect the ethernet cable (in the wall) between my modem and RJ45 jack in the living room and connect to a swith to the RJ45 and my computer to the switch I can access to the internet. (modem --> cat6 cable in the wall --> switch --> computer = internet OK)
With those tests I am not able to figured out what is the problem... router is working in situation #3. cable in the wall is ok in situations #2 and 5. How to make my router working when connected to the RJ45 jack in the living room.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am relatively good at installing and troubleshooting smaller sized networks... I am having trouble with one of my customer's networks and I think I have the problem narrowed down. r issues.I have a customer with a FS726T switch and ~20 computers connected to this switch running DHCP assigned addresses.The switch is assigning addresses in the 10.0.0.xx rangehe customer currently has an old T1 line coming into a Cisco router, which then directs traffic to port 20 on the switch.The problem is, we are replacing the old T1 line with a newer 50mbps cable connection.The cable company pre-configured their router with a static IP address the 68.116.xx.xx range. The Subnet is also different than the Netgear's subnet. I would like to keep the old T1 connection in place. I believe they have data that needs to go to their mainframe/backbone server at corporate.
I cannot log in to the cable modem. IT is an SMC SMCD3G with a staic IP. I tried changing my PC's IP address to the same gateway but cannot get into the cable company's modem, even using a static IP with the same gateway as the modem's gateway address. I don't want to reset the modem/router and lose the cable company's settings.I am pretty sure for the devices to communicate, the following has to be true?:1) Cable modem and FS726T must be on the same 10.0.0.xx IP range?2) Cable modem and FS726T must be on the same 255.255.255.0 subnet mask?

The current setup is as follows: Virginmedia Superhub in modem mode connected to one Cisco C2950 on port fa 0/23. The 2950 is connected to a Cisco C3550 over fa 0/24 via normal Cat 5e.Port fa 0/23 on the 3550 have a Astaro/Sophos UTM connected to it that acts as a Firewall/Wireless controller etc. The hitch, or maybe one of them, is that the 3550 and the UTM is on another floor from the 2950 and cannot be moved. The Virginmedia superhub can't be moved to the other floor either due to limitations in the cabling.What I'd like to achieve is for the UTM to pick up the public IP from the Virginmedia cable modem whilst no other devices on the Lan should be able to connect to the cable modem. All inbound/outbound internet traffic should go through the UTM for security reasons. The UTM have a number of available nic's that can be set to dhcp, static etc. I already have a number of VLANS on the router/switch and have half a suspicion that using another VLAN for this purpose might be the way forward but I'm not sure..
