How to connected mgmt port on switch 2960 -XR

Hi guys,
I need of a technical support  to resolve a issue with some Switch 2960-XR and its MGMT Port installed on our infrastructure.
I'd like to reach it via ssh connection to management them from a remote station (my PC), some guides found on Internet suggested me to use a extenal Hub/switch and a PC dedicated for that like this:
|SW1 mgmt port|------|H|
|SW2 mgmt port|------|U|-------- PC
|SW3 mgmt port|------|B|
I've also tried to patch the mgmt port on a port tagged with a management VLAN but it's not worked.
I ask you if there is a way to reach that SW using mngt port  without use another external SW, thanks in advance for your support 

Our network is hybrid, we have CIsco Sw and IBM Sw.
For the IBM solution the configuration of mgmt port is inband (data) and use an interface called IP2 where assigning an IP address we can manage via ssh the sw. In this case we've created a dedicated Vlan 15 and assigned as IP 10.10.10.15/24 to the interface IP2. 
In Cisco Sw the only ways I know is either to create a dedicated Vlan with an IP or using Out of band, but in this case I've to use an external Sw.
Which is the best solution to have the management port on Cisco Sw without to use out of band?
thanks

  • Equium M40X-189: How to connect RGB port to RS232 port?

    Hi,
    as you know the Equium M40X-189 P-M 730/XP has an RGP monitor port and does not have RS232 port.
    Im working with Auto-titration device which require RS232 port for connection!
    Any idea of how i can connect my notebook to this device!
    pls help
    thanks
    Omrankl

    Hi
    As far as I know the RS-232 port is a serial port and I dont think that its possible to connect the RGB port to the RS232 port.
    But I have found the useful website:
    http://www.ontrak.net/usb.htm
    There you will find a description how to connect the USB port to a RS-232 port.
    You need a ADU interface.

In my /etc/rc.conf I have eth0="dhcp" and INTERFACES=(eth0). I also tried using WICD which I have installed on the computer (it's a laptop with a wifi chip) by enabling the wicd daemon, disabling the network daemon and blacklisting the eth0 interface; but when WICD tried to connect to the switch, I got an error saying it was unable to acquire an IP address. Please correct me if I am wrong but I suspect this all means I am going to need to specify my own static IP address as the switch is not going to assign one to me automatically. If that is the case, how do I go about specifying my own IP address? Thanks!!
    As mentioned by arkham, switches operate at Layer 2, which isn't aware of IP addresses (Layer 3). So if this is actually a switch (not a router) then no, you won't be able to get a DHCP lease from it since it's not running a DHCP server.
    If there's nothing else on your network acting as a DHCP server, which it doesn't sound like there is, then you'll need to set a static IP.
    # Use 'ifconfig -a' or 'ls /sys/class/net/' to see all available interfaces.
    # Interfaces to start at boot-up (in this order)
    # Declare each interface then list in INTERFACES
    #   - prefix an entry in INTERFACES with a ! to disable it
    #   - no hyphens in your interface names - Bash doesn't like it
    # DHCP:     Set your interface to "dhcp" (eth0="dhcp")
    # Wireless: See network profiles below
    eth0="eth0 10.16.1.175 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.16.1.255"
    INTERFACES=(eth0)

  • Packets input or output in switch 2960

    Hi all,
    How to know have packets input or output of one port in switch 2960 Catalyst. Thanks you!

    Thank for your answer.
    I have some problems involved Cisco Catalyst 2960 Switch.
    I am using a device which includes Marvell PHY chip 88E1111. The device can send and receive PTP packet to and from my PC.
    Now, I want to connect the device and the PC to Cisco Catalyst 2960 Switch, which will help me trace all of packets in the network . The test scenario is below:
    -          Switch: Cisco Catalyst 2960
    -          Tracer: Wireshark software
    -          PC: Windows 7-64 bit, plugging in Switch port 1 (interface 1)
    -          Device: FPGA board, plugging in Switch port 2 (interface 2),
    operating mode: 1000Mbps, Fullduplex, no auto-negotiation, no auto power efficient-ethernet.
    -          Interface 2 of the Switch is static set by the device’s MAC
    address , which ensures the Switch known the device’s MAC.
    I suffered a problem. Although the RJ45 TX status led are on, there is not any packet sent to the Switch. I have no idea in this case.
    Could you give me an advise please.

  • How to find which port on the switch that it connected with Mac address?

    Hi,
    I am trying to find which port of the switches it connected to thru mac-address?
    I am able to get the mac-address from the ip address when i do
    "show ip dhcp binding snooping" at the core switch.
    But when I move on to the Edge switch to check which PC with this Mac address connected to the port,i returned with no result.(onli trunk port result)
    I use sh ip arp | inc 000d.60cb.445d
    but didn't give me which port it connected to.
    How to solve this problem?
    thanks!
    KL

    Hi KL,
    If you are already on the edge switch you can run a command "sh mac-address-table address " and it will give you the port number.
    Incase you get a port which is a trunk port that means the end device does not exist on this switch and exist on some downstream switch. So you can just find out the ip address of the downstream switch with "sh cdp neigh detail" command and connect to that downstream switch and then again issue the command "sh mac-address-table address " and check the port number and follow the above steps till the time you get the switch on whcih end host is connected.
    HTH, if yes please rate the post.

  • How to provide access to multiple users connected to a Dumb switch? (multi-auth/multi-domain)

    Good morning everybody,
    I am writing on behalf of not being able to implement a desired outcome in our company network. In fact the situation is as follows:
    What I want to do is to be able to authenticate users (802.1x authentication) in our company radius server and authorize them access by having a dynamic VLAN assignment in a multi-user environment on one and the same port of a Cisco 2960 switch. So far, the authentication and authorization has been working completely smoothly (there are no problems with itself). The concept involves the configuration of both DATA and VOICE VLANs as I there is also phone authentication implemented. In order to simulate this environment I introduce a Dumb switch connected to my Cisco 2960 Catalyst.
    What I have successfully managed to get to work so far is this:
    1) On one switch port I have tried the “authentication host-mode multi-domain” and it worked perfectly for a PC behind a telephone, or with one PC connected to a the dumb switch + the telephone connected to another port of the dumb switch. Logically it is the same situation as there is a separation in two domains – DATA and VOICE. Bellow is an output from show authentication sessions for this scenario.
    Interface  MAC Address     Method   Domain   Status         Session ID          
    Fa0/23     0021.9b62.b79b  dot1x    DATA     Authz Success  C0A8FF69000000F3008E (user1)
    Fa0/23     0015.655c.b912  dot1x    VOICE    Authz Success  C0A8FF69000000F9009F (phone)
    2) On the other hand, when I try the same scenario with the “authentication host-mode multi-auth”, the switch still separates the traffic in two domains and is able to authenticate all users, AS LONG AS they are in the same VLAN.
    show authentication sessions:
    Interface  MAC Address     Method   Domain   Status         Session ID          
    Fa0/23     0021.9b62.b79b  dot1x    DATA     Authz Success  C0A8FF69000000F3008E (user1)
    Fa0/23     b888.e3eb.ebac   dot1x    DATA     Authz Success  C0A8FF69000000F8008C (user2)
    Fa0/23     0015.655c.b912  dot1x    VOICE    Authz Success  C0A8FF69000000F9009F (phone)
    However, I cannot succeed authentication of many users from DIFFERENT VLANs, neither in multi-auth nor in multi-domain modes.
    What I want to get is an output like this:
    Interface  MAC Address     Method   Domain   Status         Session ID          
    Fa0/23     0021.9b62.b79b  dot1x    DATA     Authz Success  C0A8FF69000000F3008E (user1)
    Fa0/23     b888.e3eb.ebac dot1x    DATA     Authz Success  C0A8FF69000000F8008C (user2)
    Fa0/23     0015.655c.b912  dot1x    VOICE    Authz Success  C0A8FF69000000F9009F (phone)
    I want the switch to authenticate the users anytime they connect to itself and for them to have an instant access to the network. (I tell this because I tried scenario 1) with multi-domain mode and authentication violation replace, and it worked but, two users never had access to the “Internet” simultaneously!!!
    The configuration of the interface connected to the Dumb switch is as follows.
    interface FastEthernet0/x                                                      
     description Connection to DUMBswitch                                            
     switchport mode access

     authentication port-control auto                                               
     authentication timer reauthenticate 4000                                       
     authentication violation replace                                               
     dot1x pae authenticator                                                        
     dot1x timeout tx-period 10                                                     
     spanning-tree portfast                                                         
    The way I see it is explained in the following steps:
    - PC1 connects to the Dumb switch. This causes the Cisco switch to authenticate user1. This creates an auth. session with its MAC address linked to a domain DATA.
    - When PC2 connects to the Dumb switch, this causes the violation replace which replaces the recent authenticated MAC address with the MAC of PC2. I would like it once authenticated to appear in the authentication sessions with a link to a new DATA domain linked to the VLAN assigned from the RADIUS server.
    Is this possible? I think (in theory) this is the only way to provide authenticated access to multiple users connecting through Dumb switch to the network.
    Has anybody ever succeeded in such a configuration example and if yes, I would be love to get some help in doing so?
    Thank you
    Stoimen Hristov

    Hi Stoimen,
    I have done a setup similar to yours with the only exception being VLAN assignment. When I used dACLs only, it makes things somewhat easier as the VLAN no longer matters. Remember that the switchport is in access mode and will only allow a single VLAN across it (with the exception of the voice VLAN). I think that is the real cause of your problem.
    From what I can see, you have 2 options available to you:
    1) Use dACLs instead of VLAN assignment. This means that an access list will be downloaded from the radius server straight to the authenticated user's session. I have tested this and it works perfectly. Just Google Cisco IBNS quick reference guide and look for the section that deals with Low Impact mode.
    2) Get rid of the dumb switches and use managed switches throughout your network. Dumb switches will always be a point of weakness in your network because they have no intelligence to do advanced security features like port security, 802.1x, DHCP snooping, etc.
    Hopefully someone else will chime in with another option.

  • Airport Extreme dropping connection with a Cisco 5 port Giga switch

    I've connected a Cisco 5 port Giga switch SG100D-05 to one of the LAN ports of the Airport Extreme and for some reason the connection is being dropped or it fails to connect. Any idea of why this is happening and how can it be fixed?

    If you have not already done so, you might want to do some basic troubleshooting to try to isolate the cause of the issue.
    To do that, temporarily disconnect the switch and power it off. Connect a computer with an Ethernet port on it to the LAN port on AirPort Extreme and turn off the wireless on the computer.
    Test to see you can get a good Internet connection this way.
    If you can, then you know that the LAN port on the AirPort Extreme is functioning correctly and your troubleshooting efforts will need to focus on testing each port on the Cisco switch.
    If you cannot get a good connection with the computer connected directly to the AirPort Extreme, try another Ethernet cable that you know is working to eliminate the possibility of a bad Ethernet cable, which is the culprit more often than you might think.
    Please post back on the results of your testing.

  • How to connect a DV camera through the IEEE 1394 port on my A50?

    Hi
    I have been trying to connect a video camera to my notebook SA50-109 throught the IEEE 1394 port.. but the notebook didn't recognize the camera at all..
    although the camera shows 'DV-in' when i plug the cable witch is (4-pin to 4-pin) DV cable..
    is there any thing I need to do before to make it work?
    any ideas.. please?

    Hi there. Your PC should recognize automatically the DV camera. It's OK to have the firewire (1394) connection shown under "network connections". Next to mine it says "connected" although the harddisk connected to it is switched off. Maybe there is something wrong with the cable? Or, another suggestion, try to restart the laptop while the camera is connected ... Not many further suggestions I'm afraid ... Good luck!

  • How to connect Apple TV when I have run out of HDMI Ports?

    I have a Sony Bravia TV with 3 HDMI Ports - in those I have connected:
    - Sony Home Theater Surround Sound
    - Playstation
    - Sky Digital TV HD Box
    Is there a way to connect Apple TV without disconnecting any of the above? (and without buying a new TV with 4 HDMI ports!)

    lkrupp is correct, the only soution is to add what's called an HDMI switch to your setup.  The HDMI switch normally has 2, 4, 6, or 8 HDMI inputs and one output.  The output goes to your display.  You then select which input you want to choose.In your case, you can do one of two things:
    Connect all your sources to the HDMI switch.  You then select sources via the HDMI switch and you no longer need to change HDMI inputs on your TV.
    Disconnect one of the HDMI sources you have (let's say it's the Playstation) and plug both the Playstation and the APPLE TV into the switch.  In this setup you need to change the input on both the TV and the HDMI switcher.
    The simplest setup in your case is to buy a 4 or 8 port HDMI switch and put all your devices on the switch.  If you are looking for inexpensive HDMI switches, you need to look at Monoprice.  The stuff is all manufactured overseas and can be hit or miss but it's the cheapest that you'll find.  If you feel like you need some guidance and help, then try www.hdtvsupply.com.  They have a good selection and great support.

  • How do I configure Time Capsule to work with 8 port unmanaged switch?

    This is what I want to end up with.

                                                                                                  entertainment center(TV, xbox 360, dvd, apple tv, ect...)
    I have been using the above setup with an E3000 router in place of the time capsule without any problems, and was expecting to just be able to switch out the E3000 for the time capsule and keep right on rolling. At the moment, without the switch plugged in, using the time capsule as a stand alone wireless router, everything works as intended. However, I don't want to have every device in the house pulling off of wireless. Whenever I plug my switch in I lose internet connectivity. I assume this is because both the switch and the Time Capsule are trying to direct traffic and creating a conflict. I have attempted to disable the NAT in the Airport Utility and this is what happens.
    Where do I go from here, or am I heading in completely the wrong direction?

    Unfortunately, you are on the wrong track, heading in the wrong direction at the moment.
    We need to learn whether you have a simple modem or a modem/router.
    This will determine whether the Time Capsule is to be configured in router mode to provide DHCP and NAT services for the network......or if your "modem" is already doing this.....the Time Capsule needs to be configured in Bridge Mode.
    So, I suggest that you disconnect the switch from the Time Capsule for now, and power everything off except the modem, Time Capsule and the computer you are using to configure the Time Capsule, and get things working correctly first. Then, devices can be added one at a time to verify proper operation.
    If this seems to make sense to you, and you want to move forward, please post back with the make and model number of your cable modem.
