Cisco 28xx: VLANs support

Sirs:
What is the maximum number of VLANs allowed in the in-built FEth interfaces? It depends on IOS version?

Hi,
The 2800 platform will allow you to configure any of the VLAN IDs in the range of 1-4094. The number of actual sub-interfaces that you can create will be limited by the number of Interface Descriptor Blocks (IDB) supported by the platform.
Quoting from CCO: "An Interface Descriptor Block (IDB) is a special control structure internal to the Cisco IOS software that contains information such as the IP address, interface state, and packet statistics. Cisco IOS software maintains one IDB for each interface present on a platform and one IDB for each subinterface."
The number of interfaces that you can have is limited by the IDB limit for the platform and of course, memory available.
Therefore, while you can theoretically configure 4094 ethernet sub-interfaces, in practice that is not achievable.
Now, the 2821 supports a maximum of 1400 software IDBs. So that is what you are limited to.

  • Does CISCO C3560X VLAN support multiple Network segments which are further configured with HSRP function

    Hi Cisco experts,
        My name is Kumagai and I need your expert opinions below.
    I am trying to configure one VLAN1 support multiple network segments as below.
    (this should be a very straight forward configuration and should be OK, I think ? )
     interface Vlan1
     ip address 172.30.0.0 255.255.128.0
     ip address 172.30.31.253 255.255.254.0 secondary
     ip address 172.30.61.253 255.255.254.0 secondary
     ip address 172.30.71.253 255.255.254.0 secondary
     ip address 172.30.4.253 255.255.255.0 secondary
     The only issue that is eating me is the above network segments are using HSRP too
     and I am not sure is this possible with a combination of VLAN1 supporting multiples which are
     further supported with HSRP settings in Cisco environment.
    !example of HSRP:
    interface Vlan4
     ip address 172.30.4.253 255.255.255.0
     no ip redirects
     standby 4 ip 172.30.4.254
     standby 4 priority 105
     standby 4 preempt
    <<< what will happen if I add the HSRP configuration as below into the above VLAN1 with multiple Network segment ??)
     I would like to summarize my "Combined" configurations as below but I need your expert opinions on
     whether the configuration below is workable without any problem ??
     Or it is a total flop because Cisco does not support the configuration below !!!
     interface Vlan1
     ip address 172.30.0.0 255.255.128.0
     ip address 172.30.31.253 255.255.254.0 secondary
     ip address 172.30.61.253 255.255.254.0 secondary
     ip address 172.30.71.253 255.255.254.0 secondary
     ip address 172.30.4.253 255.255.255.0  secondary
     standby 30 ip 172.30.31.254
     standby 30 priority 105
     standby 30 preempt
     standby 60 ip 172.30.61.254
     standby 60 priority 105
     standby 60 preempt
     standby 70 ip 172.30.71.254
     standby 70 priority 105
     standby 70 preempt
     standby  4 ip 172.30.4.254
     standby  4 priority 105
     standby  4 preempt
    Thanking you in advance !!!!!

    Hi,
    As far as i know we dont set the ip helper address on the radio interface. It should be on the L3 interface of corresposding VLANs i.e.
    int vlan 20
    ip helper-address 192.168.33.xxx
    int vlan 60
    ip helper-address 130.20.1.xxx
    I'm assuming that your using SVI's (int Vlan 20 and int Vlan 60) rahter than physical interfaces. Also hope you have configured switch port as trunk where this AP is connected.
    Modify the AP config as below since you are using data vlan as the native vlan
    interface Dot11Radio0.20
    encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
    interface FastEthernet0.20
    encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
    Ideally your AP fastethernet configuration should looks like below and not sure how you missed this as this comes by default when you have multiple vlans for multiple ssids.
    interface FastEthernet0.20
    encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
    no ip route-cache
    bridge-group 20
    no bridge-group 20 source-learning
    bridge-group 20 spanning-disabled
    interface FastEthernet0.60
    encapsulation dot1Q 60
    no ip route-cache
    bridge-group 60
    no bridge-group 60 source-learning
    bridge-group 60 spanning-disabled
    Hope this helps.

  • Is Cisco Nexus 5596UP support vlan base Policing and traffic shaping on code NX OS version: 5.1(3)N1(1)

    Is Cisco Nexus 5596UP support vlan base Policing and traffic shaping on code NX OS version: 5.1(3)N1(1)
    where i couldn't see any police command under the policy map 

    I have tested this issue on another 5548UP with L3 running the same NX-OS version and get the same problem. Show CDP from the switch is not discovering devices, but the neightbors can see the 5K in question. Reboot sometimes will fix it, but not always. I suspect a problem with the software since that doesn't happen in NX-OS 5.2. The one I am using is
    Software
      BIOS:      version 3.6.0
      loader:    version N/A
      kickstart: version 5.1(3)N2(1)
      system:    version 5.1(3)N2(1)

  • VLAN Support On Routers

    I recently bought an 851 only to find out afterwards that it only supports 1 VLAN when I needed it to support at least 7. The documentation on VLAN support seemed pretty buried.
    Does anyone know if there is an easy way to find out how many VLANs each router model supports? I dont' want to make the same mistake again, and I can't seem to find what I'm looking for by combing through the data sheets for each model.
    Thanks!
    Sorry, I meant to post this in the routing and switching forum and I can't figure out how to delete the thread.

    Hi
    A maximum of four VLANs are supported on the Cisco 870 Series with the plus feature set (Advanced IP Services/Advanced Enterprise Services) Cisco IOS. The Cisco 850 Series only supports one 802.1q VLAN.
    See this link http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps380/products_qanda_item0900aecd8028a982.shtml

  • 871 vlan support

    hello, i have the cisco router (871) and when i try to create another vlan (another than vlan1 wich is default), i get the following message:
    "vlan can not be added. Maximum number of 1 vlan(s) in the database"
    with the command "show vtp status" i obtein:
    "maximum vlans supported locally:1"
    how can i change this???
    i have read that i have to update my firmware and add a new flash card, is it true??
    thank you very much

    i would say try updating the ios image, i have c870-advipservicesk9-mz.124-6.T.bin and i have 8 possible vlans. also check your VTP version and post what it is

  • RV016 VLAN support

    I was looking at the RV016, thinking that it might be perfect for a situation I have, and there seems to be many references in various forums for simpleVLAN support for this model, i.e. designating a range of physical ports to a VLAN. But the documentation on Cisco's site for this model makes no mention of VLAN support at all. Has it been removed from this model for some reason? Was this a feature on the pre-merger Linksys version that is now gone, or is the feature undocumented for some reason?

    Hi Daniel,
    You need to configure multiple subnets - in order to have 2 IP ranges.
    Thann you need to chose different VLANs on 2 ports of RV016 (Port Management > Port Setup) - for example VLAN1 on port1 and VLAN2 on port 2 - thus you will separate the trafic on the 2 ports. You can connect your LAN on port1 and the AP for guest wifi on port2. Both subnets will have access to i-net, but not one to each other.

  • Is cisco prime infrastructure support / can be run as syslog server?

    Dear All,
    is cisco prime infrastructure support / can be run as syslog server?
    and,
    where i can see network topology diagram, using cisco prime infrastructure?
    many thanks,
    Jerri

    Hello. Cisco Prime LMS will be replaced by Cisco Prime Infrastructure in the near future.
    In the current release of Cisco Prime Infrastructure you can't use topology diagrams. This feature is in roadmap.
    About syslog, you can send syslogs to Cisco Prime Infrastructure, but I don't recommend using it as syslog server. Please see this link for more information https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2179520

  • Cisco 1900 switch support vtp version2 and etherchannel or not?

    cisco 1900 switch support vtp version2 and etherchannel or not?
    Please help and reference.
    Thank in advance

    Hello,
    Fast Etherchannel is supported on 1900 switches.
    Please refer the below URL for details:
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/28201900/1928v9x/ee_scg/overview.htm#xtocid72765
    I "think" you need to have Enterprise Edition Software. In case if you have a standard version, then you need to purchase the upgrade kit to upgrade to enterprise version.
    As far as I know, VTP V2 is not supported on the 1900.
    By the way, 1900 swiches are End of Sale and the last date of support is July, 2007.
