Can we monitor Catalyst 500 series Switches?

Dear All,
I am having Catalyst 500 switches in my Networking Environment. I want to monitor those switches by using snmp. Please advise whether this can be done and what are the kinds of traps we can enable? Also please suggest some links or pdf's of this Cat500 series switches. 
Also these switches are having the below iOS.
12.2(25)FY
12.2(25)SEG6
Thanks,

  • I need online Configuration Guide for Catalyst Express 500 Series Switches

    Hi Mates,
    Please is there an online help page for 500 series catalyst
    I have this one for IOS 12.2(25)FY http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6545/products_configuration_example09186a00806da6c9.shtml
    but I need more detailes like IOS 12.3(7)JA for Aironet 1300 http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps5861/products_configuration_guide_book09186a00804ebd50.html
    Regards

    I'm afraid there is not such document for IOS 12.2(25)FY since the Catalyst Express 500 Series switches are manageable through the GUI Device Manager or Cisco Network Assistant.
    I have also found key features and standards supported for that release:

  • I want your valuabale opininon on ESW 500 series switches

    In my offiec i want to connect 8 accesspoints and 8 smart boad and 8 pcs to a switch the access points are cisco 1240g series and controlled by a wlan controller.
    this switch should be connected to a core switch 4507 using fiber.
    can i use these esw switches for this

    Not sure what you mean by 8 smart boad - can you be more clear on that?
    Couple of comments:
    - Please note that we recommend the ESW in a Cisco Small Business type deployment with products such as UC500, SR500, AP500. Also, management is via a configuration utility GUI or CCA, not CLI as you would use for the Cisco Catalyst switches. Check this discussion which has a PDF that goes over positioning of the switches- https://www.myciscocommunity.com/message/8385#8385
    - Please check the POE requirements you need against the ESW switches - check the question on at Q & A
    Q. How many devices can the Cisco ESW 500 Series PoE switches power?

  • How to remove the WiSM2 from the Catalyst 6500 series switch?

    Hello, can you explain to me how to safely remove the WiSM2 from the Catalyst 6500 series switch?
    According to the documentation "Catalyst 6500 Series Wireless Services Module 2 Installation and Verification Note":
    To remove the WiSM2, perform these steps:
    Step1     Shut down the module by one of these methods:
    In privileged mode from the router prompt, enter the hw-mod module mod shutdown command. NoteIf you enter this command to shut down the module, you must enter the following commands in global configuration mode to restart (power down, and then power up) the module:
    Router# no power enable module modRouter# power enable module mod
    If the module does not respond to any commands, press the SHUTDOWN button located on the front panel of the module.
    Step2     Verify that the WiSM2 shuts down. Do not remove the module from the switch until the POWER LEDis off.
    But, in the case of Step1 (1st methods) I do not see a option "shutdown"  in the command "hw-mod module 3"...
    All I prompted to enter is:
    c6500#hw-module module 3 ?
    boot           Specify boot options for the module through Power Management Bus control register
    reset          Reset specified component
    simulate  Simulate options for the module
    Is it hidden options? IOS version of c6500 is 12.2(33)SXJ1
    In the case of Step2 (2nd methods) there is not any button on the front panel of the module?
    And yet, it is better to remove the module configuration manually or use the command module clear-config prior to removing the module?

    Good catch.
    Which one is true, will get back to you on this if i've something soon.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/module/wism2/installation/note/WiSM_2.html#wp34727
    The above link is procedure to remove wism2. This procedure doesn’t look like wism2 is hot swapable.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/module/wism2/installation/note/WiSM_2.html#wp34621
    All modules, including the supervisor engine (if you have redundant supervisor engines), support hot swapping. You can add, replace, or remove modules without interrupting the system power or causing other software or interfaces to shut down. For more information about hot-swapping modules, see the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Module Installation Guide.

  • How to erase all configuration in Cisco ESW 500 Series Switches

    Hi anybody,
    Anyone show me how to erase or remove  configuration file from ESW 500 Series Switches?
    Thanks
    Thuc

    Hi Thuc,
    The restart / reset function will allow for local or remote reset of the  the unit to Factory defaults, see screen capture below. ;
    Alternatively, the Switch can be reset by inserting a paper clip into the RESET opening on the friont of the switch.
    Pressing the manual reset for 0 to 10 seconds only  reboots the switch.
    Pressing the manual reset for longer than 10 seconds results in the switch being reset to factory defaults.
    does this answer your question, not exactly sure it does ?
    regards Dave

  • Cisco 500 series switches

    Dear support,
    Can Cisco 500 series switches deliver 24V on the access port for POE operation?
    Best Regards

    I belive the 802..2F and 802.2at poe standard is strictly 48v.  I haven't found anything to the contrary.  There are inline convertes 48v-24v or something like this that can be used with a non poe switch: http://www.digital-loggers.com/poe24.html but that means all conected device would be off the same access port / vlan. 

  • Connecting two cisco ESW 500 series switches.

    Hi Experts,
    I have a basic knowledge of network and need some help.
    I have two cisco ESW 500 series switches and i want to connect them together.
    Q1 # Which type of cable i should use to connect these two switches CrossOver or fiber...What is the advantage of using Fiber over CrossOver. ?
    Q2 # What are the marked ports in the image used for...???

    tech spec,
    Traditionally you would use crossover to connect switches. Most modern network devices have Auto-MDIX which allows the device to connect using either crossover or straight through.
    The ports on the right can be used for uplink or as regular network ports. On the 10/100 versions the ports on the right are usually Gigabit, thus making them more suitable for uplink to another switch, etc.
    Please mark this thread as answered or reply if you have any additional questions.

  • Catalyst 500 series

    hi,
       i have a question regarding cisco 500 series switches and it is that if we want to shut down this switch remotely then is it possible or it has to be done manually by going to the switch location and disconnecting the power supply because i dont see a power off or shut down option if it is accessed remotely like from a pc.
    regards
    Ahmed

    I don't think many devices are meant to be shutdown. As soon as there is power they run. That's what they are made for.
    What do you wish to acomplish with the shutdown?
    Cheers,
    Michel

  • 10.0.0.0 range not allowed on 500 series switch

    I effectively now have a paper weight. I have 10,000 devices with IP addresses in the 10 range. Yet my switch does not allow an IP in this range. Does anyone know of a way to fix this design flaw?

    By "not supporting it," do you mean that you can't put an administrative address on it for management, or that it doesn't pass traffic that carries a "10. " address?
    Because if you're saying that it won't pass the traffic, then I'd say you have a dead switch, because L2 switches don't know (or care) what the L3 address is.
    If you're saying that you can't use "10. " addresses for management ... I'd also have to say that it's unlikely, and you have a config problem or a dead switch.
    The express 500s are L2 switches, so there's no such thing as layer 3 (IP addressing) from the switch's point of view.
    Try posting your config.
    Good Luck

  • Setting uplink port on Catalyst 2900 series Switch

    Greetings, I'm working on my CCNA and I want to copy down the IOS to my Linux box via TFTP before making any major configuration changes (basically back it up).
    I've noticed I don't have an uplink port on the Switch and not really sure how to go about this.
    Also can I use CAT5 or will I have to use Cross-Over?
    thanks

    [quote]
    As long as the speed and duplex are set to auto then MDI/MDI-X is enabled.
    [/quote]
    I'm not sure how to confirm if MDI/MDI-X is enabled or not on the Switch.
    Forgot to include this other detail.  All of the devices (Linux pc and Cisco Switch) are connected to a Linksys SOHO Router/Switch.  Will this make a difference?  I wouldn't think so as long both devices can ping each other.
    thanks

  • Catalyst 500 express switch , how to discover ?

    is there a discover tool for such a switch, i forgot the assigned ip , i know very very stupid.                  

    - whats the user network segment of your switch?
    - do you implement separate network management for all cisco devices? if yes, whats this network segment?
    perhaps if youre in a critical time, resetting the config will do:

  • Catalyst-3750-series-switches -stack switches

    Hi,
     I have to show the temperature of each of the stack members in the switch.  The MIB that I am using is  CISCO-ENVMON-MIB ;
    I am trying to parse the ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusDescr to get the temp instance for each switch instance.
    is this the correct way?.

    Here is the output from one of the standalone 3750 switch in my lab:

  • Making a switching choice - Catalyst 500/520/ESW Linksys SRW/SFE

    Greetings would someone be able to clarrify please what direction Cisco is taking in regards to the SMB switching product line as i am starting to get somewhat confussed.
    From my estimation we currently have the following available for the SMB market, agreed there is a significant price difference between some of the product lines but it appears as though the choice when choosing an appropriate switch is becoming somewhat blurred and is beginning to come down to price rather than features and or performance characteristics.
    Cisco Catalyst Express 500 Series Switches
    Cisco Catalyst Express 520 Series Switches
    Cisco Small Business Pro ESW 500 Series Switches
    Cisco Small Business Managed Switches (Linksys Business Series)
    Cisco Small Business Smart Switches (Linksys Business Series)
    Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series Switches
    Can i ask if there are any plans to merge some of the product lines such as the 500 and 520 which are both similiarly priced, managed almost identically and have the same feature set.
    Are there plans for the ESW line to replace the existing Linksys SRW/SFE and Cisco 500/520 equivalents?
    Would i correct in assuming that the ESW line runs IOS Code?
    Any assistance would be much appreciated.
    Regards
    Mark Rigby

    Mark,
    Great questions.  Thanks for posting.
    1. Yes, you can expect that over time the ESW 500 Series will replace the Catalyst Express Series.
    2. There are no plans for the ESW 500 series to replace the SRW/SFE switches.  These product families are somewhat overlapping, but are targeted towards different types of small business customers and VAR partners.
    3. You are incorrect in assuming the ESW is IOS based.  It is not.
    The attached PDF provides a high-level comparison of the Cisco switches that sell into SMB.
    Thanks,

  • Catalyst Express 500 series connection problems

    Hello! our company is currently using two 500 series switch connected to eachother using the g1/1000mbits port, a cisco router is also plugged in to one of the switches for broadband internet access. After deployment the following problems came up, we are unable to use our wireless access point even when the port is set up as being "access point" using the smartports feature, we simply cant ping the access point no matter what port type we set on the switch and we keep having the error message on the router that it has denied connection from that device, my feeling is that for some reason i'm not aware of the router is blocking certain devices to transfer data no matter what type of port we define on the smartports feature. I cant find anyway or option on the router software to disable this blocking or filtering of the data in order to connect any devices i want normally without any restrictions. for some reason the switch is not accepting connections from the access point...
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hi, well, i did disabled STP but it didnt help, i'm going to post the network topology more exactely and the settings being used so its easier to get any help as i think i missed some points about our network :) ....so here it goes :
    1. All the devices and client computers are using fixed ip addresses on the range 192.168.254.x
    2. Topology :
    Switch number 1 connected devices:
    17 client computers connected
    1 printer
    1 cisco router (with dhcp disabled and using fixed ip too)
    1 Netgear AP using set with DHCP
    Switch number 2 connected devices:
    10 client computer connected
    Switch 1 and 2 are connected using the G1/1000mbits uplink port
    Settings being used on BOTH switches (they are both catalyst 500,same software version) :
    - default vlan1 is set and enabled
    - STP enabled
    - IGMP snooping enabled
    - all ports are enabled and set to auto mode for speed and duplex
    - port Gi1 that is used to connect both switches is set as "Switch" type with smartports.
    - gateway (cisco router) ip address set
    - security set to "low"
    - STP settings on switch 1:
    currents roots: VLAN1 , priority:32768 , root port: fa24 (where the router is connected), route path:38
    - STP settings on switch 2:
    currents roots: VLAN1 , priority:32768 , root port: Gi1 (uplink to switch 1), route path:42
    switch 1 specific settings:
    - the port where the AP is connected is set using smartports as "Access Point" and the port where the printer is connected is set as "Printer" also using smartports on the switch device manager software.
    - the port where the cisco router is connected is set as "router" with smartports
    Facts:
    - I am able to ping all the devices on the network from any computers connected to both switches.
    - I am able to ping the printer from any computer connected to both switches as well.
    - When AP is connected directly to the cisco router wireless clients have access to internet with no problems
    - all wired client computers on both switches connect to the internet using the router without problems.
    Issues:
    - Cannot ping the AP from any client computer on the network
    - When printing from Switch 1 clients everything goes well, but when i print from clients on Switch 2 i am unable to print as its unable to connect to the printer, however i can ping the printer on the command-line !
    - When i try to plug in the network cable from the AP to its designated port on Switch 1 the network crashes !
    Error messages:
    When trying to print from clients on Switch 2 or when try to connect and use AP on switch 1 i get or "access denied to device connecting to portxx" or i get an STP blocking error .
    Hope the picture is clearer now.
    thanks once more.
    Fernando.

  • Cisco Catalyst 3750-X or 3560-X Series Switches

    Recently, our company was deciding to buy Cisco switches, but they just tell the requirements and I finally focused on two kinds of switches, Cisco Catalyst
    3750-X or 3560-XSeries Switches? Who can tell me, tnx in advance.

     As I read a blog recently, it listed the specific differences between Cisco 3750-X and 3560-X, except for the common features of Cisco 3750-X and 3560-X, Cisco 3750-X can also offer-- Cisco StackPower technology: An innovative feature and industry first for sharing power among stack members; 
    Cisco StackWise Plus technology for ease of use and resiliency with 64 Gbps of throughput; 
    Investment protection with backward compatibility with all other models of Cisco Catalyst 3750 Series Switches. 
    And made a more detailed comparison between the two products, for ur reference.
