Update of connectivity for 10G VIC Cisco NAC 1225 Options

I currently have the opportunity to upgrade a server C220M3 UCS Intel standard 1 G of LOM to 10G and I'm looking at different ways to do this.  It is a stand-alone UCS server running VMware.

Currently in this environment, it is not a port of uplink switch 10G which can be used to connect to a port of UCS 10 G, I'm looking how to fill at least 10G upgrade on the side of the UCS hardware and have this component completed, all having a period of transition from the connectivity of 1 G in the short term.

It seems that the 1225 VIC is the obvious choice to do this, as price wise, it is reasonable and it is fully featured, even though we only need 10 g ethernet (no FCoE in the short term).

An option I was looking at was to use the 1225dts model, this to support backward compatible with 1000BaseT, 10BaseT.  However if it is an easy choice on UCS, Cisco do not seem to have modules of 10 G of copper on the side of the switch, except in specific models of the Nexus family.  What limits our options of switching in the future (this excludes the use of 4500-x or 3850 s for example).

10G of fiber is an option, such as Twinax, but this brings me to my next questions.

1. it seems that, according to the data sheet of C220M3 to http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/products/collateral/servers-unified-com... (see table 14) that the 1225 does not support Twinax.  In fact, it is the only NIC and ANC listed who apparently can't stand, which seems odd.  Is this correct, and what is the reason behind this?   Is it a hardware problem, a software problem or a problem of documentation?

2. If Twinax Cisco is not an option, the 1225 does support 1 G SFP as the GLC-SX-MM?

3. it looks like the X 520 map for UCS might work, because I believe that it can work with dual rate 1 G / 10 G SFP.  Someone has already tried this or have any comments on the way that those with UCS?

Thank you

Reuben

Yes, take a look at page 34 of the plug for this server, but the SPF only supported are 10G - SR and the FC8G-SW.

  • delivery of mail with 5510 e error - print. updates and connection are ok. a friend has the same problem.

    I checked all of the updates and connections for my new printer.  As far as I can tell, I've checked everything that needs to be checked and everything is good.  But I still have the error of mail delivery when e-printing.  And my friend has the same problem with his new b111a 5510.  What could be the problem?  Regular, printing, scanning, and so on work fine with my wireless connection.

    So looks like it's maybe a problem with the E-mail address provided by your internet provider, you send from,

    What I would say as a test is to create an email account with g mail and or yahoo and try to send the e-mail to your eprint/E-mail account and see if it accepts the email too, make sure you have your printer the value Accept e-mail for all users, you can do so by logging into Eprint Center and then enter these parameters and select this option

  • Cisco NAC appliance - after a success does not change users to connect to the vlan propper

    Hello

    I am new to cisco NAC BURNERS and I have to troubleshoot an implementation. It is a real OOB IP gateway configuration. Users can connect to the Pentecost the CCA, but after the connection of this success, they remain on the role not authenticated, as well as on this vlan. I checked the SNMP protocol and seems to work very well. Also, I checked the logs on nac_manager.log and there is nothing surprising, in fact I see nothing about this user or IP address that connects.

    Also the user does not appear on the list of users online on cam.

  • Cisco NAC Profiler

    Hello

    I have some doubts if any1 can clearly it will be great. I have the deployment of gateway NAS OOB real ip in my network.

    Assuming that all ports are Nac_controlled. So as soon as the client caches they are in the local network virtual auth.

    now I have a cisco nac Profiler in my network which I will configure IP phones and printers.

    by example, if the port of the ip phone is connected to it will be also under auth vlan.

    so as soon as as ip phone gets plugged, Profiler cisco will see the profile and change the vlan auth to its vlan respective by mapping the profile and the profile of the NAC that we have mapped in the Profiler and given of the vlan in the user profile of the NAC for the ip phone.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, for the understanding of the operation. I need profile of ip phones. I am not able to connect.

    It would be very useful if you can help me.

    Thanks in advance.

    Nitesh salvation,

    the NAC has no control over the voice VLAN, then this would be defined locally on each switch ports.

    For example, you assign it not the point endpoint IP Phone profiled in any role, because the input is 'ignored' and the phone works on the configured locally voice VLAN without going through the NAC.

    The IP phone case is different from that of printers and ATM... as in this case, these devices are looking at VIRTUAL local network access (which is commissioned by the NAC), and you do not expect to see all other devices (MAC addresses) on the same port of a printer, ATM or other endpoints without an agent. That being said, you can assign profiles different points of endpoints to different roles in this case.

    I hope that answers your questions.

    Kind regards

  • Base installation of Cisco NAC

    Hello

    I bought a Cisco NAC server and a Cisco NAC Manager.  I have it in the laboratory to test for the moment, but I would extend approximately 200 users possibly on campus lan.  I just check that a user is valid on active directory.  Perhaps the best way I can do that is by making a discovery on the server of the NAC to valid mac addresses.

    What is the best way to do this? That is to say

    user connects to a port on the campus lan

    Active directory checks that they are a valid user on the domain

    they get their usual dhcp address once they are authenticated

    If they are not a user validates on the field that they will not be authenticated

    I'm not worried about the verification of the antivirus, pc built... for now

    For the moment, I installed the server of the NAC and the NAC Manager and both can access it through a layer 3 switch.

    Thank you

    Kevin

    Kevin,

    Essentially, you ask for advice on how to do this. As I just pulled out of 1000 users NAC L2 VG OOB (who looks like, it's what you want to do) and a 3000user of the NAC L3 RIP OOB as well as OOB wirless and looking IB VPN right now. My best advice would be to buy the next book.

    Cisco NAC Appliance 'Host security with clean Access Application' by James Heary for about $60. (available on Amazon)

    This covers all deployment scenarios and is invaluable for me when I created the NAC. What it does is put in the necessary steps and is easier than flitting back and forth between the CAM and CASE manual.

    Hope that helps

  • Cisco NAC offers Support

    Hello

    I have some question about Cisco NAC and don't know if it is able to support:

    1. can you packets qos to NAC honor/confidence when it is configured for inband/off band?

    2. for the creation of the lobby admin on local accounts management comments (using the own access device); cisco nac appliance does support

    the lobby admin via acs/external db authentication? If this isn't the case, adding a comment server would reach it?

    3 - is not cisco NAC appliance support wireless controller and the mixture of cisco/non-cisco switches? If so, if the switch supports snmp mib mac-notification/link/link down; would this be enough?

    4 is Cisco NAC comes with a predefined set of rules AV to verify that all AV support is running for the posture check (example if NAC supports 100 produced different viruses; can he check all 100 different product that can be installed on a PC for control of posture). An example of this would be hotel / that there are people of different products installed antivirus trying to access the network and the antivirus must run and installed and updated to access network). I know that the pre-confgiured default rule can check for installation/setting however not sure on the status of service / application running.

    Thank you.

  • Cisco NAC server and check active number? Would this work?

    Hi all

    A client has achieved a question when we introduced Cisco NAC today.  They wondered, lets say, a client of Cisco NAC agent installed may be connected to the network switch. It has all valid requests and patch levels on his machine (posture validation check pass)

    However, even if the customer takes the position of all the parameters, they want to know that if the host name of the client (for most Windows laptops) does not exist in their active database (this database is a database of estate number which is in a similar format or .csv) posture validation must fail.

    Have you met such request like this before? Is there a function on the NAC server which checks a field against an external database as an active database?

    See you soon.

    Dumlu,

    Currently, it is not possible. You can create controls who can check values locally, but not against external data warehouses, so for this card against your thinking, NAC would have to know all the names of workstation before hand and then check against that. It is unwieldy and very very difficult to scale.

    If it's something you and your client think would be a good addition (and it sounds like a good idea) Please engage with your account team and ask them to request a feature for you.

    Thank you

  • What is the difference between Cisco NAC and ACS?

    I am currently part of a new construction project and my Cisco account manager and sales engineer recommend Cisco NAC for our new MDF. I'm confused because I don't clearly know the difference between a Cisco ACS and the NAC. What is the difference?

    Thank you

    Chris

    Chris,

    The two are completely different, maybe the sales rep could present you with more information and application. Each offers a variety of services tailored to the specific needs. I think that we need to read more in depth on the proceeds of the NAC. NAC seems an excellent solution for authentication authorization but other regulatory compliance.

    When you see ask your representative to sales for more information/demo.

    ACS is more widely use as a central point to access control to network devices routers, an example is for acs accounting management and the authority to order on all devices on the network using acs as RADIUS server. Considering that the NAC is over a central point of safety inspection on earlier systems of access to your network by via LAN or outside, an example of these respected regulatory defined could be inspections could be virus definition checks before getting lan access thus preventing access to the LAN if the system does not have regulatory compliance defined in NAC access is denied. Another example could be the unknown local host connections etc... So, it seems that NAC is a much broader product that provides endpoint security internal, not only the authentication authorization as acs... ACS has been there for a long time, NAC is rather new product.

  • Being trained by Cisco NAC nuts! Help!

    Hi all

    Getting desperate here... been trying to get the solution NAC Cisco (Cisco NAC 3310) to work, but with limited success, and the results are currently desperately randomly. I have a lot of experience with Cisco product and so far this has been the most painful :-( Here, any help would be appreciated gladly!

    OK, here's the Setup: the cam and CASES are configured in mode OOB VG (Layer 2). I install everything by following the guide from Cisco (I hope) - different VLAN for the CASE, the cam and VLAN mapping, managed subnets, etc. to switch profiles configured. Yet, I get strange answers: some PCs are unable to connect to the network, even if successfully managed switch port informs the cam a new MAC is detected (varies the switch port to the vlan auth of vlan initial). I have accumulated my brain trying to figure out what's wrong, newspapers event does not indicate a lot of problems. Just to check on some uncertainties:

    1. for the managed subnet IP, should I check the box "Enable subnet based Vlan change?"

    2. for the subnet managed, if I put the IP address of subnet managed as the IP of the gateway? E.g. 110 VLAN (vlan not reliable) mapped to 10 VLANS (VLAN trust) which is the 10.1.10.0/24 subnet. The gateway is 10.1.10.254. So should I configure managed subnet IP/netmask as 10.1.10.254/255.255.255.0? Or choose another unused IP address from that subnet (for example 10.1.10.1)?

    3. I am also the experience of the situation where to connect with success (pass the verification of the NAC etc.), I unplugged my laptop on the port managed switch and after a while connected. This time no authentication happens, but the network connectivity is broken (even if the Cisco Agent is running). Seems that the network port is placed in the VLAN Auth, yet nothing is invited to open a session. Any ideas?

  • Error message on the download of update of firmware for airport

    Get an error message when you try to download the update of firmware for the airport. Have disabled the Wi - Fi for all devices; powering down of the airport; MacBook connected to the router via a cable; access to Internet but the download update still gives an error. Any ideas on haw to get the update, or what is the problem? Thank you.

    The error message say, exactly? What version of Mac OS X you are running on this machine?

    For updates of the firmware to work, you must be connected to your device from the airport and connected to the Internet at the same time. If you have a situation where you have to disconnect from the Internet to connect to your airport device, it does not work, at least not for the first time, you have to download a firmware version for the same model of AirPort base station.
