ESXi - Trunking for Cisco switch

Hi, I'm having a little trouble to create a trunk to a crowd of v4.1 ESXi.

My config on the switch

interface GigabitEthernet3/29
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk allowed vlan 100 300
switchport mode trunk
switchport nonegotiate
spanning tree portfast trunk

ESXi side VLAN ID has been set to all (4095) - side switch and host configurations is passed to the host of vCentre.

Defining the interface of switching on an access on VLAN100 port, the host will stand fine. Problem is that I need another network to be consulted (VLAN300)

interface GigabitEthernet3/29
switchport access vlan 100
switchport mode access
spanning tree portfast
end

I am able to allow a second card on the host computer and the whole upward like a trunk as above, seems to work fine, even if I don't have a virtual machine upwards on it yet to test

*

My query is, how can we allow multiple VLANs to an ESXi host on a single card? What I'm missing here...

Thanks in adavance.

Brendan

For me, looks like the vmkernel interface used for the management network is not be marked, as the host responds when you define the physical switch as an access port port in the VLAN 100. So either mark the vmkernel with VLAN ID 100 port or VLAN 100 native VLAN on the switchport physical... (switchport trunk vlan 100 native)

  • 10G Cisco switch

    I would like to know if the compatibility for the storage matrix Dell is updated regularly, especially for cisco switches.
    We seek to deploy a few PS6210 with 10G connectiivity and here for use with switches Cisco 4500 X series. However these are not included in the doc. There are a few cisco switches that are the end of life (4948 and some nexus switches).

    Hello

    Yes the guide is updated regularly, usually monthly or updates are available.

    Since the x 4500 is not a Nexus series switch, you looking for correct DCB support?

    In this case these Dell 'Level 3' offers better support for resonable effort.   I'll make sure that use you the latest firmware IOS and EQL.  There are other switches catalyst IOS in the guide.  Configure it in this sense would be a great place to start.   Ideally, the switch dedicated for iSCSI use, not VLANd with other types of traffic.

    If you can first test before production, then support can see table diagnosis and SANHQ archive for any signs of network related issues.   (retransmit rate and types for example)

  • Plug-and-Play for Cisco Small Business 300 Series managed switch

    Nice day

    What are the automatic installation options available for the Managed Switch series of Cisco Small Business 300?

    It seems there are not, the operating system is not the standard IOS I used to.

    I would use with ability to bridge the Infrastructure first Cisco PnP.

    Concerning

    Stone

    First Infrastructure use and assume an agent CNS (Cisco Network Services) on the other side, when you enable the 'plug & play '. Series 300/500 do not run IOS and does not include the CNS agent, but there is a way to activate the automatic configuration. Switches supported by the automatic DHCP configuration (using DHCP options 66, 67, etc.) in which case they automatically download their config to a TFTP server at boot time. This allows an administrator to put the configs for all switches on a TFTP server and simply start a default switch factory in order to obtain config.

    Seal a document shows how this is done.

    Hope that the information would be useful.

  • Required for NAC firewall ports manager manage/add the Cisco switch

    Hello

    I am trying to add switches cisco for the NAM, but I am not able to add the switch I get the error "unable to control switch" I tried opening ports 161-162 on the firwall; If I were to allow all traffic between the NAM and the switch, cisco NAM is able to add/manage the switch.

    Do not know what are the other ports may be required for cisco NAM for managing the switch?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    As far as I KNOW, only UDP 161 and 162 for SNMP communication ports must be open.

    Please make sure that you have configured the correct port on the switch:

    (config)# snmp-server host 172.16.1.61 traps version 2c cam_v2 udp-port 162 mac-notification snmp 

    If still does not, I would check the logs on the firewall for any traffic blocked between the cam and the switch.

    Welcome to the community,

    Cisco and other hardware providers offer ESXi images customized to support their equipment. However, the customization is made by adding/replacement drivers and tools. The base is still the same original VMware image. There is no specific license provider.

  • To the main unit Infrastructure Cisco switch port

    Hello.

    I had a doubt as to the Port of the Switch in my Cisco Switch for a camera of the first Infrastructure.

    This port must be a Switchport to access or a Switchport Trunk?

    What is your recommendation on this subject? What is best practice?

    Thank you very much.

    Access port should work fine. You do not configure a VLAN on the device itself, just the IP address / subnet and default gateway.

    Thank you

  • Circuits on Cisco Switch SG200-50

    Hi all

    I'm trying to inter vlan routing using Cisco Switch SG200-50 with router Cisco 1941. The router I created three subinterface for VLAN1, 2, 3 and VLAN1 is vlan native. I have a LWAP with Cisco WLC connected to the same switch. I have activated assignemnet vlan dynamic using Windows /NPS. RADIUS Wireless successfully user can authenticate as well the vlan is assigned, but unable to ping the router subinterface.

    On the switch, you must activate the trunk port connected to the router ports and AP, tried all means, what makes the trunk port and General, nothing worked. users are unable to ping the gateway.

    If you have worked on this switch, pls help how to on this subject.

    If the Cisco technical support team can help me, that would be great

    Thanks in advance

    OK, so the information you provided in your latest messages confirm that the privilege level you get via telnet/vty is different from the one you get via the console. This is due to the configuration of AAA which applies to the vty ports but not on the console port.

    So if you want the same rules apply to the console port, then you must configure the port console for AAA as well.

    If you don't want these rules then you need to remove the AAA configurations. The best way to remove these is by typing 'no new aaa - model' However, careful not to lock you out of the unit. Make sure you have local accounts with the privilege level 15 and you also know the active password/secret.

    I hope this helps!

  • Switchport security best practices for Cisco IP phones

    Hello.

    I have some difficulty to understand what the safest method is to ensure a Cisco IP Phone.

    Can't get info on how many course connect a switchport and a telephone computer IP Cisco with a daisy chained to him.

    The thing I fear more precisely is how to secure against attacks of Double VLAN tagging and COP on this port.

    I searched regardless of the possible resource for the answer and you have not found anything useful.

    I also have a question regarding port security on a switch: can you set a minimum amount of MAC addresses active and then limit the period of ageing on the MAC addresses on a specific switchport, such that if someone disconnects the phone and sets up a Cisco switch or other device of thugs, then the port should be stopped during the period of ageing.

    Let me know, what you would suggest to better secure the hose between the Cisco IP phone and the switch.

    Best regards

    Casper.

  • How to add a VLAN to trunk on Cisco SF200-24 port

    Hi all

    I have question want to ask:

    I have Cisco switch SF200-24, I want to Setup VLAN as below:

    1 to 10 of Harbour = Vlan 100

    11 to 21 Harbour = Vlan 200

    22-24 Harbour = Vlan 300

    Port GE1 = Trunking (primary)

    Port GE2 = Trunking (secondary)

    How to add all the VLAN 100, 200, 300 go through primary and secondary circuits?

    What port should I connect to management switch?

    Thank you

    > How to add every VLAN 100, 200, 300 go through primary and secondary circuits?

    first set the ports as trunks via the "VLAN management'-> 'Settings of the Interface' - click on the corresponding port, click on the button"Edit"and select"Trunk"in the list.

    Once these (GE1 and GE2) ports as trunks, you can now assign all the VLANS you want through "Management of VLAN"-> "a Port VLAN membership." Select the first port (GE1), click on "join the VLAN" and select VLAN all desired from the list on the left and put them in the list on the right.

    and you're done.

    > Which port I can connect to management switch?

    the default management IP switch is part of the default VLAN1. If you want to keep access to the switch, assign "VLAN1" to one of the ports of access, or change management VLAN number other than 1 - but in this case remember to apply the correct IP settings in order to satisfy the subnet assigned to the new VIRTUAL LAN.

  • Configuration Wireless 3G as online backup with cisco switch layer 3?

    Hi all

    We have an existing GPRS modems for data transfer between 2 different sites, this connection is a bit slow to no more than approximately 114 Kbps, the idea is to add a 3G modem, so the solution will be based on a two-way communication lines which are 3G network and the GPRS network.

    The line GPRS will be the main and 3G will be secondary, this redundancy offers a high level of availability of communication between the two sites.

    is it possible to configure this redundancy with a cisco switch layer 3? If this is the case do you have a tutorial or a link which explain how to do this work with a layer switch 3 ciso?

    all information will be useful for me, thanks

  • I need to attack a Cisco switch on my network

    Hi all

    I came in a new acquisition of site. The site bought a Cisco 2960 switch from a contractor and paid him to install a few years ago.  When the site came under our ownership, I asked them to get the login information from the contractor for the switch. His response has been more or less, "its configuration is fine, you don't need access."  See you, we OWN the switch and the work he was hired to do was completed years ago.

    In any case, I'm tired of the back and just so I would just brute force.  I'm sitting in the USA, and the switch is in India. My infrastructure is as follows for this connection.

    My PC - ASA 5520 - VPN - ASA 5505 - Cisco 2960 Switch

    There access connection configured for regular HTTP on port 80 only, so erase the text. My subnet is allowed after the two firewalls.  Is it possible that I can make this happen from a remote site, or what I need to be on the local network?

    The easiest thing is to have someone on the site connected to the console with a terminal session port and share their screen with you. They may need to use a mobile hotspot if the switch is the only connectivity they have on-site.

    Then power cycle the switch and follow the password recovery procedure.
