Replacement Module supervisor in Cisco Catalyst 6500 VSS 1440

Hello forum Cisco team!

I am trying to replace a defective supervisor (Sup720 VS 10 G) on a pair of Catalyst 6509 VSS. I received the RMA and the document Replace Module, supervisor of the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Virtual Switching System 1440 (the document is attached) with the procedure. After going through the steps, I have a few questions during the installation of the new supervisor:

1. do all links (including the VSL) must be connected before feeding the new supervisor? It comes from before that image and the boot config is copied to the new supervisor.

2. once the startup config and the image is copied from the active VSS switch in the new supervisor, the document said to check orders for priority switch in the copied startup config form the active VSS, but the priority of each switch is not stored in the startup configuration as far as I know. Can you please clarify this?

My goal is to add the new supervisor engine without disrupting the current active VSS switch.

Thank you in advanced for your support!

Hey,.

With regard to your questions:

1. do all links (including the VSL) must be connected before feeding the new supervisor? It comes from before that image and the boot config is copied to the new supervisor. - Yes

2. once the startup config and the image is copied from the active VSS switch in the new supervisor, the document said to check orders for priority switch in the copied startup config form the active VSS, but the priority of each switch is not stored in the startup configuration as far as I know. Can you please clarify this? - Once you convert the switch for VSS priorities will be stored in the startup configuration file. Please visit the following link:

http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/TD/docs/switches/LAN/catalyst6500/IOS/12-2Sx/configuration/guide/book/VSS.html#wp1111770

However, it is no longer recommended and therefore should be avoided. I suggest you not setting is not the priority.

HTH.

Kind regards

RS.

  • 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

  • Compatibility matrix for Cisco Catalyst 3012 Switch Module

    Hello

    I'm checking the compatibility of the VMware vSphere 5.5U1 Guide and an IBM switch module Part Number: 43W4401 product name: Cisco Catalyst Switch Module 3012. The search of the matrix returns Cisco 1GigE I350 LOM who seems to identify the drivers of Cisco.

    Can anyone help clarify and check if this IBM re-branded chassis switch module is supported and to a specific firmware for the switch code? Thank you all.

    L2/L3 switches are off-limit of drivers for vSphere hypervisor, so you don't find on the HCL...

    Here's IBM BladeCenter matrix interop for VMware:

  • PoE for Cisco Catalyst 2960PD-8TT-L

    Hello

    Will deploy this device for a small office. Just a quick question, a Cisco Catalyst 2960PD-8TT-l switch provides PoE on all its 8 ports or simply powered through his PoE uplink port.

    Read the URL below, but did not have much info. TIA!

    Sorry John, my comment is not directed at you.  The link you posted, the content is very, the lack of a better term, misleading.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/ps12200/prod_models_comparison.html

    Go to this site instead.  It shows that the model you have chosen has NO PoE.  Instead, it uses the PoE of a switch upstream to turn.

  • 6248 FI Cisco's UCS with Cisco catalyst 2960 connectivity

    In our environment, UCS, connects the two fabric as a Cisco Nexus 9 k switch upstream with vPC and it works well. But we need to isolate some virtual servers on the blades of the UCS on an entirely separate DMZ switch which is Cisco catalyst 2960.

    (1) so can we connect cables separate physical twinax of FI uplink ports to catalyst 2960 and connectivity to the servers in the DMZ keeping YEW to nexus connectivity as it is?

    (2) in this case, as there are 2 switches to nexus core 1 and 2 so we will require 2 cisco catalyst 2960 for disjoint such a network? or otherwise we can connect A FI and FI B to one on his 2 numbers 2960 switch. Gig SFP ports + 10?

    (3) also suggest things must be taken in charge, the best guides practice or an illustration in this context.

    The assignment is static and cannot be changed.

    location 1 - uplink 1

    slot 2 - uplink 2...

    If a property has no blade, the corresponding uplink is not used and that can not be changed!

    This dedication of uplinks of IOM is of course a lot of resources: cables, ports on FI, allowed port,...

    Have you run wireshark on the server because the request to switch? If so you make sure that there is a response from the server? For Windows network POLICY Server (I've never tried Centos), you must ensure that the request is related to a policy which then authenticates, or denies access. Usually, it is a matter of such attributes and the seller.

    Regarding the configuration, it seems a bit out of the AAA. Try to remove the:

    line "aaa dot1x group service radius authentication" and this by using instead:

    "aaa dot1x default radius authentication group". After the dot1x word you are supposed to provide a list of the authentication or the default Word if you do not want to use a list.

  • Problem with VLAN between Cisco Catalyst (3560G) and SG300-52

    I am having trouble with the creation of a trunk of vlan between a SG300-52 and a Cisco Catalyst 3560 G.  I have 4 VLANS (1, 2, 10 and 11) on the 3650 and I need ports on the SG300 to be able to communicate with them.

    On the 3560, port 14 is defined as:

    interface GigabitEthernet0/14

    switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

    switchport mode trunk

    spanning tree portfast

    On the Sg300 port 52 is defined as:

    interface GigabitEthernet52

    point to point link type spanningtree

    switchport trunk allowed vlan add 1,2,10,11

    description macro switch

    Try to understand what the problem... Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Chris

    Hi Chris, the first problem is the spanning tree portfast, it shouldn't be on an interconnection network switch. You may have a mismatch of vlan native as well, but that shouldn't matter.

    A suggestion, however, the value of the port SG300 general mode and disable the input filter.

  • Cisco Catalyst 4503-> Cisco 3560 L3-> Cisco 2960 L2-> Cisco SMB switch

    Hi Experts,

    I am trying to add a Cisco SMB SF300 - 24 Switch to an infrastructure that has only the Cisco Catalyst switches

    The base layer is Cisco Cataylst 4503. Distribution is Cisco Catalyst 3560 and Cisco 2960 switches access layer.

    There are about 30 VLAN present in the infrastructure that is announced to all switches using VTP. Inter VLAN routing takes place at basic switches

    by creating the Interface VLAN for each VLAN of L2.

    1. the new 150 VLAN must be created on the new Cisco SMB switch. If I create a corresponding interface 150 VLAN on core switches, it will forward the other VLANs traffic just as he is currently working for Cisco 2960 Catayst switches?

    2. While they inspected, I could see that the DERIVATIVE is not supported on the Cisco SMB switches and I would need to go GVRP if I need to make advertising information to other switches VLAN. But since GVRP is only supported on CatOS and there is no inter operability between GVRP and DERIVED, I would need to manually create the VLAN on the new switch. Is this correct?

    Help, please!

    Thank you very much

    ANUP

    Good afternoon Anup Sasikumar

    Please use our forum

    My name is Johnnatan I am part of the community of support to small businesses, I saw your post and I understand that you want to configure VTP and GVRP.

    I'm afraid you will have to configure it manually each Vlan in each device CatOS GVRP, in order to keep their databases vlan in sync. As you say, VTP is support it not in CatOS

    You can try to connect the two protocols, but I encourage you do not follow this procedure.

    On your question about intervlan routing, if you create a corresponding interface 150 VLANS on switches to base it is routed, if your configuration is correct (port access, ports of junction, intervlan etc..)

    I hope that you will find this answer useful, if it was satisfactory to you, please indicate the question as answer.

    Please evaluate the useful messages.

  • Cisco Catalyst 3750 G cable StackWise Query

    Hi everyone, I hope you can shed some light on my question.

    I have a job reserved Friday to add a switch to an existing fireplace. I was wondering at what point I need to use a longer cable to complete the ring.

    The existing stack consists of 2 x Cisco Catalyst 3750 G-24TS-24 switches are the 1.5U models and I will be adding a 3750 G-12-12 to the stack. So a total of 4U.

    So I guess my question is, do you think that the CAB-STACK - 50CM = cable supplied with the unit will be long enough, or do you think I will need to order a CAB-STACK - 1 M =? It's been a while since I've done it and I think remember me being quite stiff and bulky cables. All switches are in order without a space.

    Kind regards

  • Cisco FWSM 6500 limit group vlan module

    With licensed 20 firewalls FWSM.

    not more than 16 groups of VLANs are allowed for a single module.

    What is the limit of the vlan-groups with a license of 50 or more?

    Lowen is right, you can actually all your VLAN map on the module with a single group. Then in the context of the system, you decide which VLAN correspond to which contexts.

    In response to your question lowen, Yes, you can map several groups on a single module. I acutally do sometimes, even if it is not a practical reason to do so.

    Hello Sanjay

    Y at - it an oversubscription happenning in my 6500 chasis causing the bundle down the State. Newspapers at the time the end suggest that for the components of the interface.

    Oversubscription can happen at the ASIC level and line card, but I don't think that anything to do with the problem whereby what is oversubscription has confronted your switch.

    With regard to the excess requests, here is an example

    WS - X 6724-SFP

    Port ranges by port group: 1-12, 13-24

    01:12 oversubscription rate (an ASIC each 12 ports)

    Look at this link for more information on excess requests in each module.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/switches/LAN/catalyst6500/hardware/Module_Installation/Mod_Install_Guide/02ethern.html#wp1040314
