• Cisco UCS Server - Port HDMI

  Cisco dear team,

  One of our customer asked for a HDMI Port on Cisco's UCS servers.

  Can someone help me with this please?

  In the affirmative, please let me know in which Cisco UCS Server is available?

  Kind regards

  Farhan.

  As far as I know, none of the UCS servers have an HDMI port.

• Service profile of the CISCO UCS for ESXi

  Do you need multiple boot LUN on the storage array for each host that you want to apply the service profile to? I'm just confused, let's say I have 12 blades that I want to designate as boot SAN for ESXi, y aura-t 12 profiles of separate service for each of them, and will need me 12 different LUNS on our storage? I am new to this and I just want to make it as clean as possible! Any help is appreciated.

  Hi Justin,

  You can have the same LUN ID for multiple service profiles, as well as the same target ID. However, your initiators will be different and you will need to configure the zoning on your switch upstream if you use the end host mode.

  Here is a good guide, review the basics and how to put in place.

• Interface issues Netgear Smartswitch to the Cisco 881 LAN port

  Hi, we have 100 routers Cisco 881 in our network and they work all fine for the Linksys, 3Com, switches etc.  The problem we encountered is interfacing to switches from Netgear.  Netgear switches use automatic detection on their ports and it doesn't seem to be compatible with auto MDIX detection on the LAN Cisco 881 4 serial ports on the router 881 hub.  Someone has encountered this problem before?  A cross over cable solve the problem?  Since both executed MDIX autosensing they never synch - so probably a cross on would not make much.  I see this with all Netgear smartswitches.  If you put a small switch between the Netgear switch and router Cisco 881 everything works well except to pass traffic to port 9000.  Any ideas would be appreciated.

  See you soon,.

  Hello

  There should be no problem using crossover cable. You can try disabling autoMDI/MDIX (not auto mdix) on the cisco device and keep a straight cable but if it fails, use a crossover cable.

• Cisco UCS 5108 add NIC to ESXi host

  Hello

  I'm quite new in the world of the UCS, so I slowly read up on it. We currently have a laboratory with a 5108 that host two of our esxi5 servers. When I say lab, I mean a configuration that is not in production yet, and if I can use it to learn right now. I just now each server I create gives me only 2 network cards to work with, so I would like to add. I have attemtpted to add a new network adapter for the service model and apply it, but I get the following error.

  "There are not enough global resources. Not enough available vNIC.

  I don't know what I'm doing wrong or if 2 is my limit.

  Thank you

  Welcome to Dennis,

  The quantity of NICs you can create depending on the model of the adapter.

  E.g.

  See the diagram below for the virtual interfaces supported by the adapter model

  

  When you use the VIC M81 maximum interfaces that you create also depends on the number of links between IOM (chassis) and interconnections of fabric).  56 is assuming that you have 4 links of each fabric of interconnection of each IOM.

  In addition, blades of large width (B250, B440) can support two adapters mezz, so you can adjust the vnic/vhba max.

  Kind regards

• Cisco UCS - FC ports not visible

  on my fabric UCS of interconnection, no ports appear under ports CF.

  all are rather visible under Ethernet Ports.

  they have the good GBIC FC

  am I missing something? have already checked under LAN and SAN Manager of uplinks

  What kind of fabric Interconnect you 6100 s or 6200 s? If 6100 s then you need plug-ins that support the FC ports.

  If you have a 6200 s, you must configure your Ports unified:

  http://I0.WP.com/www.virtualizetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/ucs1a...

  If you need more information, attach also the output of the command «See the fabric - interconnect inventory to enlarge»

  Hope that helps.

• Configure the Cisco VPN client to pass through the VPN site-to-site (GUI)

  Hello

  I say hat the chain and responses I've seen to achieve this goal have been great...

  https://supportforums.Cisco.com/discussion/12234631/Cisco-ASA-5505-VPN-p...

  and

  https://supportforums.Cisco.com/document/12191196/AnyConnect-client-site...

  My question is "we will get this configuration by using the graphical user interface for someone who is not notified about the command line?"

  Thank you

  Of course, all this can be configured via ASDM.

  Looking at the second example you posted above, they point you first change:

  ACL split of the tunnel for the AnyConnect customer

  This Configuration > remote access VPN > network (Client) access > AnyConnect connection profile > (chose the profile and select Edit) > (choose "Manage" next to group policy) > Edit > advanced > Split Tunneling > ensure that the policy does not "Inherit" but rather "Tunnel network list below" > Unselect "Inherit" next to the network list, then 'manage '. Enter your networks you want in the GUI in this dialog box. Click OK all the way back to the main window ASDM and click on apply.

  You then change:

  Crypto ACL for the tunnel from Site to Site

  To do this, go to Configuration > VPN Site-to_site > connection profiles > (choose your profile and select edit) > add the VPN client address pool to the list of local network between protect networks. Yet once, click OK all the way back to the main window ASDM and click on apply.

  Then, allow the

  ASA to redirect back on the same interface traffic it receives

  .. is defined under Configuration > Device Setup > Interfaces. (check the box at the bottom of this screen). Click on apply

  Finally, there is the NAT exemption. For which go to Configuration > firewall > rules NAT. Add a NAT device rule before rules network object with Interface Source out, Source address your address pool VPN, the Destination address to include remote subnets and Action is Static Source NAT type source address and destination address remaining as original (i.e. without NAT). Once on OK all the way back to the main window ASDM and click on apply. Save and test.

  Good luck. Don't forget to note the brand and posts useful when your question is answered.

• What is the best way to configure the Cisco IOS password?

  I'm under 15.2 (4) IOS on a router in 1921

  What is the best way to set up the password of the router?  I already tried once and managed to block me on another switch.  I would use the most secure method that encrypts the password.

  Current config:

  username admin privilege 15 password 0 cisco123

  Hey Kevin,

  Use the secret keyword instead of the password for the password more secure and encrypted.

  The syntax that you are using will display the password in clear text.

  R1 (config) #username, 0 privilege 15 password test
  R1 (config) #exi
  R1 #sh runn
  * 00:00:25.523 Mar 1: % SYS-5-CONFIG_I: configured from console by console
  R1 #sh runn | in test
  username password 0 privilege 15 test
  R1 #.

  If you use the keyword secret then it will get encrypted.

  R1 #sh runn | in test1
  username privilege 15 secret 5 test1 $1$ PV6g$ sGMYxxmW8hD9Cdy7TsmHF0
  R1 #.

• Cisco UCS configuration happy Pack

  Hello

  I downloaded the last available Cisco UCS Content Pack, listed as version 1.5.  I was able to import the content successfully Pack and see the dashboard properties, queries, alerts and retrieves the fields.  I am also able to select the Cisco UCS content Pack in a drop-down list in the section of the dashboards of the site (no data is displayed).

  However, I can't find anyway to configure the content Pack in my Center of interconnection Cisco UCS fabric, etc!

  Am I missing something?

  Do you mean Insight Log version 1.5 to version 1.5?

  Instructions for the UCS configuration can be found here: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/servers-unified-computing/ucs-manager/110265-setup-syslog-for-ucs.html. You can add a review on the UCS on Solution Exchange application documentation.

I have I need to connect my Dell TL 4000 LTO3 tape library this Cisco UCS so that I can configure a virtual machine with the EMC Networker software for backup of virtual machine data. When I connect the Cisco UCS library, it does not recoginize as tape drive.

  Please suggest how to set up the same.

  Thank you

  Amit,

  We do not support direct damage attach FC tape library to the FI currently.

  It may be a CF or CF storage end switch.

• Connection Cisco UCS 6120 FI directly to Cisco Catalyst 6500?

  I watch a lot of design with the Cisco UCS solution guide and everywhere it is Cisco Nexus 5000/7000 connects to the uplink ports of Cisco UCS 6120 FI with the benefits of technology to the vPC.

  How about connect Cisco UCS 6120 FI directly to 10GE ports in Cisco Catalyst 6500 (without VSS and VSS)? It is possible to design?

  If I use C6500VSS there will be port-channel of the aggregation of the UCS Nx10GE all the bandwidth?

  And what happens if I use C6500 (without VSS) - how it will be on the many links between UCS and two boxes C6500? It will be blocked by STP? A little on the other?

  Please explain to me, because we have only C6500 switches in our data center and want to test a Cisco UCS schassis.

  Yes, you can connect the 6120 s to cat6500s with or without vs. With VSS, you get a vPC as port channel where 2 links to a single 6120 can be connected to different 2 6500 s in a port LACP-channel.

  VSS is not necessary, you can connect a 10 G uplinks / 1 G of 1 or more of a 6120 at cat6500s. I you have 2 cat6500s (non - vss) and 2 uplinks by 6120, then you want to connect 1 cat6500-1 and the other to cat6500-2. I would recommend going ahead and creating a single port-channel port so that you can easily add the uplinks in the furture without interruption of service.

  Ideally, for non - vss, I would have 4 10 uplinks by 6120; 2 in a channel port cat6500-1 and 2 in a port in cat6500-2 channel

• Cisco UCS-C210 M1 accredited for Unified Communications server

  Hello:

  Our VAR tells us that HP and Cisco are splitting up.  We are an HP store today and 7800-H series MCS routers were a perfect fit.  Our VAR tells us now that he must go with the renamed IBM systems.  BUT I would avoid the IBM servers.  And attractive servers Cisco.  But I have been unable to determine if the Cisco UCS-C210 M1 server is certified for various applications of Unified Communications (Manager of Communications, unity, Cisco Emergency Responder, ICM, CVP, etc.).

  Has anyone heard of Communications deployments unified on the hardware of the UCS?

  Thank you

  Ken

  UCS blades are being qualified for management of the applications of the CPU now. The qualification of rack mount server is expected, specifically the C210 later this summar I think.
