Audit of Cisco equipment for my lab

Hello

I prepare lab at home and I bought some Cisco equipment and have some thoughts (doubts).

1. How can I check if these facilities are new or reconditioned refurbished? provider says its new, but!

2 - assuming that I am in the Middle East and the supplier brought the material, which means that in the case where if the equipment not intended to be sold in the Middle East, do I have no support from cisco "locally"?

3-if its new brand, how can you check if this equipment is intended to be sold in my area?

I tried on the cisco Web site, but find that I must be partner to get these details.

A

(1) it's not easy to tell by looking at the kit.  When the Cisco partner ordered the kit refurbished the number of partner usually a - RF at the end.

(2) you get only supported if you have a Cisco, for example a SmartNet maintenance contract.  If you have that you have supported.

(3) I don't think you could check this, unless it's something like kit WiFi which has a regulatory domain.  In this case the regulatory field is often embedded in the part number.

If you have a machine with at least 8 GB of RAM (I prefer 12GB) and a quad core i7, then have you thought about using the official Cisco Simulator, VIRL?

  • Cisco Jabber for Windows user Photos

    8.6.3 CUPS

    Client Jabber for Windows Version 9.0.1 Build 8802

    I noticed that Jabber Client for Windows Cisco does not automatically refresh with updated photos in Active Directory.

    I had updated the user photo in AD and noticed that he wouldn't. I travelled to "C:\Users\\App Data\Local\Cisco\Unified Communications\Jabber\CSF\Photos" and had to manually delete the users photos in this folder. I left on the Jabber Client and restarted the program. When I did this, crashed the Jabber Client, I saved the report of crash and re-opened the Jabber client. This time the customer opened correctly, and the photos update appeared now!

    It seems that Cisco would not set the photos to be cached on the local computer.

    Any thoughts?

    Hey Ellen,.

    Looks like the similar problem with CUPC. Previously, I had a discussion with our Dev team for CUPC Photos of caching locally.

    This has been identified in the following improvements:

    CSCtu25084    CUPC Contact photo put in cache and do not update dynamically

    http://Tools.Cisco.com/support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCtu25084

    I will update to add Cisco Jabber for Windows as well.

  • Connection Cisco SG300-10-Core Cisco 6513 for ShoreTel phones

    I have a new ShoreTel phone system will soon.  Configure a dhcp, including option 156 scope which is required for ShoreTel to obtain the configuration on ShoreTel phones and in order to get on the vlan correct voice on the phone.  I also created a new vlan 112 for the vlan voice.  When I plug directly into the Cisco 6513 Core switch, the phone starts fine, it gets its configuration and on the VLAN correct 112.

    We have a training room in which there will be a lot of users.  I ordered 6 Cisco small business 10port SG-300 POE switches for this training room.  I plugged the switch in a cable coming off the 6513 which is just an access port and in the vlan voice I created for phones shoretel VOIP:

    interface FastEthernet10/11

    When I plug a phone directly into this cable the phone works very well.  When I plug a cheap cisco POE switch in I can get 3 phones works very well, but due to the amount of energy needed for this cheap a cisco switch it will give only 3 phones power.

    The real problem here is plug into small business cisco SG300-10port POE managed switch.  I thought I could just connect the switch to the port configured above right out of the box and plug in phones without a problem.  When I plug the switch and start plugging in ShoreTel phones, they do not start coming in and upward and actually had a few phones upward but then finally there is no tone and also later, they appear on the screen as a service not available.

    I have to configure a trunk port on a port on the SG300 and the Cisco 6513 for this to work?  Also I will need to VLAN configuration manually on the SG300.  Looks like that when I just plugged it in to the above configured the port on the SG300 it automatically create the vlan 112.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thank you

  • Cisco support for third party on SRE applications?

    Hi - I think about some applications of unified communications to third parties under VMWare ESXi5 running on a Cisco SRE 900 module.   According to the docs Cisco, 3rd party apps are supported on these modules (see table below), but the app in question is NOT on the list of Cisco below.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/prod/collateral/modules/ps10598/data_sheet_c78-553913.html

    A few questions:

    1. until the third-party application is able to run under VMWare/VSphere ESXi5, is there anything on the SRE which could prevent you from running this third-party application even if it is not on the list of Cisco?

    2. What is the policy on the use of third-party applications that are not on their list of Cisco?    For example, they will be a call for support on the SRE running an unlisted application (I do not expect to help me with the app, but I don't want to cancel any kind of support contract through the use of a third-party application not on their list).

    Thank you!

    As long as 3rd party soft is able to run on ESXi 5 he would go on the SRE material. Cisco does not prevent these applications from running even if they are competitive. Support perspective that Cisco TAC will not take any support calls for these applications nor would know how to redirect the call to these 3rd party partners. Cisco TAC supports only SRE and ESXi related issues.

  • How to set an MTU of 1600 for test Lab at home for the NSX on Vmware workstation

    Hello.

    I'll set up a laboratory at home to build a laboratory to the NSX. I am running 3 on VMware Workstation 11 Esxi hosts. All three hosts of esxi run each 4 Ethernet adapters on them.

    To configure installation VXlan for my lab at home, I have modified the virtual machine's .vmx file and changed the vmxnet3 device and it works.

    Ethernet1. ConnectionType = "custom".

    Ethernet1.virtualDev = "e1000".

    Ethernet1.wakeOnPcktRcv = "FALSE".

    Ethernet1. AddressType = 'generated '.

    ethernet2. Present = 'TRUE '.

    ethernet2.VNET = "VMnet1.

    ethernet2. ConnectionType = "custom".

    ethernet2.virtualDev = "vmxnet3" - change to vmxnet3

    Adapter type VMxnet3 only is not supported for VMware workstation and also one of my hosts broke down several times with the low error message in the log file.

    Can someone guide me how to set up a lab NSX on VMware workstation and use 1600 MTU for VXlan traffic. Any help is very appreciated.

    Hi all

    I managed to solve this problem by separating the storage traffic to a different vswitch and the traffic to a different VDS NSX.

  • Record of equipment for the Cisco AnyConnect client NAM module

    Hi all

    Forgive me if this has been asked before or on the Cisco site somewhere (I could just find)

    Are there hardware specifications for the Cisco Anyconnect Network Access Manager module?

    Where can I find what wifi chipset is compatible with?

    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Compatibility with the NAM module is based on the chipset not guest OS. The current operating system compatibility is listed here.

  • Question on does not not with cisco equipment?

    This works if for example the transmitting equipment is a Policom? is dependent on the manufacturer? is dependent on the system must be cisco?

    Hi Jose,

    If you have a device Apple IOS 7 and enforcement Yes it should work fine with a SX20 locally even without being in a call as long as you view a presentation.

    I recommend you read the FAQ page here https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/12159326/frequently-asked-quest... if you have problems.

    Here are the conditions to get it running (from the FAQ):

    What are the requirements for the proximity of Cisco working with the end point?

    So that the proximity of Cisco working with endpoint, you need to activate the BYOD mode on the endpoint.

    xConfiguration Byod experimental Mode: on
    xConfiguration HTTPS NetworkServices Mode: on

    This will make the unit generate ultrasound for matching and open for HTTPS communication. It also means that the device running the Cisco proximity application must be on a network where it can reach HTTPS endpoint in order to make this work.

    Make sure that endpoint are using speakers. Matching will not work if the headset is connected to the audio output. The speakers should be able to generate a 22 kHz signal.

    Concerning

    John

  • Issues of update/upgrade of equipment for Tecra S10-183

    Hello

    TOSHIBA TECRA S10-183
    Serial number: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Model number: PTSB3E-0YR04KGR
    Code BTO: P8700/2G/160G/15.4WBT/DS2/L/M/B/W/3G
    Pre-installed software: Yes [R11382GR]
    Purchase date: 13/05/2011

    I use above professional mobile phone use for CAD programming as well as for Office applications.
    2 GB RAM (standard), I can increase up to 4 GB Kingston (ex aequo) on purchase.
    With the 160 GB HARD drive, I had a lot at the beginning of the loss of speed.
    So I leave a month later to a switch of OCZ Vertex 120 GB of a second
    And lasted almost 9 months without problems.
    Now, I don't have so much free space in my SDS. So I would like to
    'Intel SSD 520 Series 240 GB 2.5 SATA III'
    Skip the leave.

    My question would be, I would get this problem?
    (1) in theory, SATA3 work perfectly well this SSD 240 GB right?
    In the manual, it is up to 120 GB SATA2 SSD in it. However, the 2009 manual. The information is very old. And at that time were not yet 240 GB free for end users of hard drives SSD SATA3.

    (2) is there any Windows Professional / Ultimate / Business 64 for 7 as this laptop?
    Original, I have Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit. I wanted that my memory that expanded up to 8 GB. CAD program running on the 64-bit operating system much better.

    (3) is the card graphic and/or welded directly on my cell or can I leave replace it? It is a plug-in card?

    (4) can I switch to a processor / CPU? What size?

    (5) the Mobile UMTS and HSDPA / HSPAU / LTE is capable?

    (6) I still can't be on the Toshiba support site:
    http://de.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/generic/SUPPORT_PORTAL/
    find when you enter the serial number or model number is not my laptop?

    On a response, I would be very happy.

    Sorry for the bad English. My language is German!

    So I hope that someone can help me with my questions.

    With sincere friendships.

    The SATA controller is not limited in size, you can use 250 GB, 500 GB or more large hard disks. The same should be possible with SSD drives since the controller is the same.

    (> 2) is there any Windows Professional / Ultimate / Business 64 for 7 as this laptop?
    > Original, I have Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit. I wanted that my memory that expanded up to 8 GB. CAD program running on the 64-bit operating system much better.

    Don't know what you mean exactly, but if you want to installed Win 7 64 bit, then you can do without big problems the 64-bit drivers are available on the European driver Toshiba page.

    (> 3) is the card graphic and/or welded directly on my cell or can I leave replace it? It is a plug-in card?
    The laptop seems to be equipped with a NVIDIA Quadro NVS 150 M chip graphic. This is an external chip that is connected/soldered on the motherboard. But even if you can remove this chip, the upgrade is NOT possible.

    (> 4) can I switch to a processor / CPU? What size?
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    Generally the CPU upgrade depends on the chipset of the motherboard.
    You could upgrade the processor, if the chipset would support the new processor.
    There are still questions about BIOS support, but I've read here in the forum that some people have been able to upgrade the new processor.

    (> 5) the Mobile UMTS and HSDPA / HSPAU / LTE is capable?
    Support for 3G modules appears to support the HSDPA standard

    (> 6) I still can't get on the Toshiba support site:
    > http://de.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/SUPPORT_PORTAL/
    > find when you enter the serial number or model number is not my laptop?

    Maybe it is not inserted into the database, but your Tecra S10-183 belongs to the series of PTSB3E that you can search other models belonging to the PTSB3E for details

  • How to open the port 161 on the ASA and Cisco switches for monitoring of BB

    Dear all,

    I want to install BB to monitor snmptraps suffering of failure.

    The newspaper shows BB cannot connect to all ports of the switch 161, and I even can't telnet to 161 XXX_17f for example.

    My switches are Cisco C3550, C2950, etc. of the ASA.

    Mon 7 Nov 15:43:03 2011 bbnet cannot connect to the server XXX_17f on port 161

    Mon 7 Nov 15:43:03 2011 bbnet cannot connect to the server XXX_9f on port 161

    Mon 7 Nov 15:43:03 2011 bbnet can't connect to XXX server on port 161

    Thank you

    Anson

    no need to adjust anything in bb-hosts. If you have added setings in bb-hosts, delete them. Also remove associated in bbvar/logs log files. (otherwise, you'll have purple when you delete the SNMP, trap tags bb-hosts)

    A column of trap will be that no show until the device sends a trap to BB.

    If now! The new boyfriend UPC or Jabber logs by himself... it would have shown in the buddies of the Jabber Client at all times. But the other guy must be connected by itself.

  • Cisco Jabber for iPad released 9.2, dns issue

    Hello!

    Is there an administrator's guide for the new version of the iPad? I can only find one for version 9.1:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/voice_ip_comm/Jabber/iPad/9_1/Admin/JABP_BK_J3C828CB_00_jabber-for-iPad-Admin-9-1-1.html

    which does not describe the function of automatic discovery for the style connection "e-mail."

    I can see there are some research carried out:

    TXT? domain.com.

    SRV? _cuplogin._tcp.domain.com.

    SRV? _xmpp-client._tcp.domain.com.

    SRV? _cisco-phone-tftp._tcp.domain.com.

    Hello Martin!

    I know that your question is a couple of weeks and I think since the Jabber for iPad team has posted the last administration guide which has been updated to version 9.2.  See the section 'Setup DNS SRV' as it could explain what you are looking for - I know not how this article differs from the previous guide...

    For the benefit of third parties who have Jabber for the iPad from the specific questions, please note that the community of Jabber Clients is available.
