CAT 2950 console terminal issue

I recently picked up a CAT 2950 switch, everything "seems" to run fine, LEDs are green and I am able to make a console connection. My issue is that the console connection does not last more than 15 seconds before closing/timing out, also the close time seems to be varible but never more than 15 seconds. I am able to enter exec mode, global configuration mode along with configuring the console interface to never timeout but that does not seem to help.
I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions, I am unable to clear
I was able to initiate the "write erase" command and sucessfully reload the swtich.
Switch#write eraseErasing the nvram filesystem will remove all configuration files! Continue? [confirm][OK]Erase of nvram: completeSwitch#reloa00:15:38: %SYS-7-NV_BLOCK_INIT: Initalized the geometry of nvramdSystem configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: yBuilding configuration...[OK]Proceed with reload? [confirm]00:15:44: %SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested
Here is about 15 seconds worth of the IOS booting, after I had to create a new console terminal connection to see it.
User mode:
Switch>Switch>Switch>Switch>
So it operates just for 15 seconds.
Any suggestions?

Write erase clears the startup-config in nvram but you must not save the running config afterwards.
Just "wr era" and power cycle or reload.

Leo

  • Shetting up SSH in Cat 2950 switch

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst2950/software/release/12.1_19_ea1/configuration/guide/swauthen.html#wp1205873
    I am trying to configure SSH on the Cat 2950 switch.  AAA needs to be configured for authentication using the local database.  What does the following sentence mean? "When configuring the local authentication and authorization authentication method, make sure that AAA is disabled on the console".

    Hi,
    For configuring ssh  in switches you should have cryptography images with switches it will be in names like K9 in ios name and configuraing aaa check ou the below link hope this helps out your query !!

    The message genrally indicates to avoid for packet to move to radius/tacas server.so that login can happen via local database.

  • FSCM via WS-RM (without PI ) - Update termination issue

    Hello experts .
    We are trying to integrate SD with FSCM ( credit management) using WS-RM (without PI).
    Details of the issue and steps followed so far.
    Ideal Scenario :
    Once we create / change a sales order ( in SD ) , the interface Creditworthinessquery_out (WS Consumer ) gets triggered (in SD) and the subsequent response CREDITWORTHINESSQUERY_IN(Provider) is triggered from FSCM (with the details of creditworthiness).Once the query response in received an notification is triggered from SD to FSCM (asynchronous service).
    After receiving the query response the functionality of credit check happens while creating / changing the sales order .
    Configuration steps followed in SOAMANAGER
    We have created end points for all the relevant service interfaces (Providers) , and also created logical ports for the respective consumers.
    During the creation of logical ports - for the consumers we used the WSDL (of the providers) as the inbound message action.
    (This has been done to all the services query , notification that are relevant in our integration).
    Current behavior / issue .
    While creating sales order the sales order is not getting saved (getting updated in the database).System allows us to complete the sales order creation process and also we get a message as sales order saved successfully. But then there is a update terminated express document that pops up. Sales order is not getting updated in the database.
    When I see the logs/traces in SOAMANAGER I see that the query out is successful , query in has the right response (in warning state though) . But no notification is being triggered ?? 
    How to overcome this update termination issue ?
    When we see the SM13 log , it points to SLD issue (LCR 010: Internal error in SLD API). why do we need a SLD without PI

    Hi  ,
    Finally we are able to solve the update termination issue . But again we are using a work around .
    Situation :
    Once we executed the VA01 transaction we were getting update termination issue . After lots of debuggung we found that system was trying to get the Business system details ( Own business system data ) . The table lcrt_clntcache had no values.
    Solution
    We inserted appropriate values in the Table LCRT_CLNTCACH (business system data ) and now it works .This is a work around we got as of now.Credit checks are happening successfully and also integration is good .
    (typically if we define business system in SLD (PI) , and run SLD_CHECK , this table gets populated , but in our case we are not using PI instead we are using WS-RM)
    But now few questions arise .
    a) Why do we need a business system in case we are not using PI ( typically we define business system and technical system in PI )  and instead using WS-RM ?
    b) Is it a good practice to update the table ( as did in workaround above )?
    c) Is this any bug and needs to be consulted with SAP ?
    Please let me know your views .

    The first thing you might want to try is upgrading the 2950 code , that is very old code .The latest is 12.1.22-EA5a .

  • Connecting Cat6509 to Cat 2950

    Connecting a Cat 2950 to a Cat 6509 using a cross over cable. This comes up as trunk but I don’t want it to.
    When it was first connected, it led to some spanning tree errors as the port vlan at both ends were different. On the C2950, I had vlan 1 and on the C6509, I had Vlan 211. I change the port vlan to 1 on the C6509 and then this was ok but now it is trunking.
    I dont want to trunk on these port. What I want it to create a connection as a normal access port in say vlan 211.
    How do I do this?
    And then after doing the above, will routers connected to the switch be able to talk to each other via vlan 211?
    I am running CatOS on the 6509 and IOS on the 2950.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Do the following
    On 2950
    conf t
    int fa x/y
    switchport mode access
    switchport access vlan
    switchport nonegotiate
    On Cat 6500
    If trunk is there then,
    set trunk x/y off
    set vlan x (vlan#) y/z (port#)
    for example
    set trunk 2/23 off
    set vlan 100 2/23

  • [Forum FAQ]Solution for Windows PowerShell console font issue when changing system locale

    Issue description
    After changing Windows System Locale to another country, users cannot modify Windows PowerShell console font to Lucida after modifying the font settings. There is also a potential bug report in Microsoft connect:
    https://connect.microsoft.com/PowerShell/feedback/details/806286/powershell-4-console-font-issue
    Reason
    In most situations, this problem is caused by system locale is changed to other countries from United States, such as Chinese, French, etc. Because of this change, the code page and font of Windows PowerShell console might be changed with system locale.
    For Example, if change system locale to Chinese (Simplified China), Windows PowerShell console
    (%systemdrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\System Tools) properties would be changed like this:
    Solution
    To resolve this problem, please follow the steps below:
    Access to the path below to find the shortcut of Windows PowerShell:
    %systemdrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\System Tools.
    Right click Windows PowerShell and choose Properties.
    Switch to Options, check if Current code page list there, if that it is, choose
    437 (OEM-United States) and click Apply. Maybe you will encounter an
    Access Deniedpop-up as the following picture.  Then you need take ownership of current PowerShell File, switch to
    Security Tab and obtain full control permission for current User Account.
    Note: if Current code page was not list there, just leave alone
    Options settings and switch to Font Tab.
    Switch to Font Tab, choose the font you wished to use, click
    Apply.
    After the above settings, current Windows PowerShell console font should works as you wished.
    Applies to
    Windows PowerShell 3.0
    Windows PowerShell 4.0

    Cause
    This issue is due to the bootmgr file, we cannot use the bootmgr file of Windows 7 to find the Windows 8 Operating System files.
    The Windows 7 bootmgr can indeed boot Windows 8.
    This is on a BIOS system 
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVO5aeaKeeE
    This is on a UEFI system 
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3-K6Fyobz0
    The Windows 8 bootmgr partially loads Windows 8 before offering the boot menu.  By choosing Windows 7, the system must do a reboot.  Using the Windows 7 bootmgr, no reboot is required.

  • 802.1x RADIUS authentication problem with Cat 2950 to CiscoSecure ACS 3.3

    I wondered if anyone can help or shed any light on the following problem.
    I am getting an authentication error when doing a RADIUS authentication to CiscoSecure ACS 3.3 running on a Windows 2003 server, the authentication request is coming from a Catalyst 2950 switch which is doing 802.1x for Windows XP clients. This problem only happens when the XP client connects to 2950 switches, Cat 3550s and 3560s work fine.
    The Cat2950 is running 12.1.20 (EA1) which is more or less the latest IOS.
    The error I get from ACS 3.3 is "Invalid message authenticator in EAP request" when the 2950 tries to authenticate an XP client for 802.1x to the ACS server using RADIUS.
    Doing a RADIUS and 802.1x debug on the 2950 I see a message about 'Unknown EAP type', I am using PEAP on the XP client doing EAP-MS-CHAPv2 authentication, the same XP client authenticates fine with 3550 and 3560 switches problem only affects 2950s. Can anyone confirm the 2950 supports EAP-MS-CHAPv2?
    I have checked and re-checked the shared secret and it definitely matches on 2950 and ACS.
    One thing I noticed in the RADIUS debug is the 2950 sends 18 bytes for attribute 79 when the RFC defines attribute 79 should be 3 bytes or less, I don't know if this is related to the problem or is correct behaviour.

    Hi, I am new with 802.1x, and was hoping that someone would help with these queries:
    1. How is a certificate requested without being allowed on a network that is not authenticated with 802.1x. I had to first connect to an active network, retrieve a certificate with the proper username and password, and then physically connect to the port on the 2950 switch which was enabled to do 802.1x
    2. My config is as below:
    aaa new-model
    aaa authentication dot1x default group radius
    aaa authenication login default group radius
    dot1x system-auth-control
    interface f0/1
    switchport mode access
    dot1x port-control auto
    end
    I able to login using the radius server, so radius is working (on ports other than f1/0). However when connecting to f1/0, the port on the 2950 remains blocked.
    3. The certificate is issued by the ca server, is viewable via Internet explorer,and is issued to the correct username which is on the active directory.
    I even tried using local authenication with 802.1x, this did not work
    4. If I have a certificate, will this automatically give me access to the 802.1x port?
    5. I have windows 2000, and authenication is set to 'Smart Card or other certificate.
    Am I missing anything?
    Any advise will be greatly appreciated

  • Termination Issues in VL01N reference with Sales Order

    Hi Group,
    we were facing issues while creating the Delivery(VL01N) with reference of the Sales Order and getting an Express termination message as under:
    'Enter a Batch'.
    we found information with tcode 'SM13' with the Function module 'RV_MESSAGE_UPDATE'.
    kindly provide your valuable inputs.
    Regards,
    Vishnu

    There can be various reason for these kind of termination. Normally this due Number range overlapping or Object requested is currently locked by some other user. If you have used TCode SM13. Then you might have checked the reason why the 'Termination' Message appeared. So, there you can check ABAP run time errors is cause. If you can post :
    - Status
    - Class (mandatory)
    - Number (mandatory)
    - Error Details
    In that case, we will be in better position to assist you.

  • Date and Time stamp wrong in Console / battery issue?

    Since April the date stamp in Console reads 12/31/69. The date and time on the system is correct. I know these are current Console logs. My battery did go bad around this date, but I bought a new one and have had no power issues.
    Also kernel task seems to be running high -- any connection?
    Here's a small sampling of the console log from the point where it changed:

  • Toll Free termination issues

    Over the past several days I've had issues with calling several toll free numbers which end up in the Cincinnati area.  Called the toll free provider and they don't see an issue but said they look like dropped calls coming into their network from an interconnect.  A few friends have also noticed the issue as well.  We make a call to the toll free.  The call will ring a few times then disconnect.  Almost like a time out or something.  Any ideas or known issues?

    No.  It seems to be several toll free numbers.  I can only make it happen when calling via verizon wireless.  I opened a ticket with vwsupport and they looked at several things then sent it on to the network guys.  I also have had conversations with the toll free owner and carrier.  They are seeing the issue coming into them and trying to sort it out from that direction as well.  Must be an issue either in the vw core network or some intermediate between you and the terminating carrier, which I think in this case is Cincinnati Bell Any Distance.

  • How to I get back from shell named "cat" to default Terminal? This is from a failed RVM (Ruby) installation.

    I tried to install RVM with an About.com guide. Now the terminal is labeled cat at the top after flashing login and bash. It won't run anything I type. I think it's because one of the steps told me to enter this:
    $ cat >>~/.bash_profile
    [[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"

  • ASA5510 ASDM 6.0 GUI console login issue

    HI All,
    I have Cisco5510 running with ADSM 6.0 version, I was able to access it fine since few months but suddenly I am unable to login through that.
    Its prompting for username and password and loading it to 100% but not opening the GUI console.
    I feel this could be the JAVA version issue but with the same version of JAVA I am able run another ASA 5520 which is running with 6.4ASDM version.
    Request you to suggest the right JAVA version to run 5510 with ASDM 6.0 GUI console, else if I am wrong on this suggest the solution to close this issue.
    Regards
    Suresh

    Suresh,
    Have you tried to update the ASDM? It is mostlikely a Java issue, but it would be a good idea to update the ASDM to the same version. We have noticed issues with old versions of ASDM running newer versions of Java.
    Give it a try and let us know.

  • DSM Terminator issue -  when exiting, user sees "about blank" screen

    This issue is being experienced by two of our Portal users. When the user exits the portal, they get an "about blank" internet explorer page that is minimized in the Windows taskbar. When viewing the "about blank" page properties, there is no information about the page. It allows you to maximize it into a blank white screen or close it out.  Also, before this page is loaded, when exiting the Portal a quick screen flashes before the Portal screen closes. The screen basically says
    ****Closing sessions... Transmission protocol, DSM Terminator v.6.060 (sync)  (long portal address)   Request PREPARED for sending via client  (Finished 1 request(s) distributed***** 
    Both users experience this issue everytime they exit their Portals. We have tried numerous troubleshooting measures to fix the problem and we've isolated it to their specific computers, not their usernames.  We have had this before and reformatting does fix the issue, but we want to know how to avoid reformatting and just fix the one issue.  We've scanning the computer for spyware/viruses, checked their startup configuration, cleaned temp/temp internet/cookies, tried different user names.  Thanks for your help on this!

    First off the DSM terminator window is completely normal.  This is client side javascript that closes the connection to R3.  This can be run server side if you need it to but doesn't work if the connection is done over SSL. 
    As far as the popup window, I would try and restore the defaul IE settings.
