Interconnect different fabricpath networks via CE

Deer Fabricpath Experts
Hi,
I have a problem that derived in Fabricpath and STP.
Please tell me the way to resolve this issue.
Please see below, FP and CE Diagram.
               +--------------------+                  +---------------------+                +---------------------+
               |   FP Network  |                   |  CE Network   |                 |  FP Network   |
Vlan A --- |    Production   | -- Vlan A --  |  Catalyst        | -- Vlan A -- |  Devlopment   | -- Vlan A
               |   Nexus5K/7K |                   |                      |                 | Nexus5K/7K   |
               +---------------------+                 +---------------------+                +---------------------+
Vlan A is a FP Vlan, so that it is need to transit fabricpath network.
FP Network Production and  Development are separated by policy,  for the purpose of no affect convergence each other.
I want to have the same segment Vlan A over the different fabricpath network.
This Vlan is shared of Production / Devlopment FP Network and CE Network.
But, Fabricpath have some limitations,  can not interconnected via CE Network.
FP Network is looked like a root bridge. and if CE port receive superior BPDU, go down blocking state.
As a result, Nexus5K/7K port facing the Catalyst port,  go down same.. blocking state.
This behavior is the normal fabricpath operation.
Look below.
Layer 2 Gateway Spanning Tree Protocol (L2G-STP) builds a loop-free tree topology. However, it has some limitations. One limitation is that the STP root must always (virtually) be in the FabricPath cloud.
For example, it is not possible to have two FabricPath networks connected through a CE cloud. A bridge ID for STP consists of a MAC address and bridge priority. When running in FabricPath mode, the system automatically assigns the edge devices with the MAC address c84c.75fa.6000 from a pool of reserved MAC addresses. As a result, each device has the same MAC address used for the Bridge ID.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus5000/sw/mkt_ops_guides/513_n1_1/n5k_ops_fabricpath.html
But I am prohibited to combine Procuction and Devlopment FP Network directory, using fabricpath adjacency.
I have some ideas, but I don't know right or not.
a.  Apply L2 ACL like a dropping BPDUs to CE port facing Catalyst. If CE port can't receive superior BPDUs , no blocking.
b.  Disable STP of Vlan A in Nexus5K/7K Leaf. If STP can't work, no BPDUs,  no blocking.
Would you please help me.

Carrier sets weight and passes us Sing-primary, Tokyo-Secondary and London-Teriary
We see the route come in with a community of _65000 from Sing, _65001 from Tokyo and _65002 from London
We then could have a route map as follows to set local-pref or med in
Route-map OVERLAP permit 10
match community Sing
set MED or local-pref
Route-map OVERLAP permit 20
match community Tokyo
set MED or local-pref
Route-map OVERLAP permit 30
match community London
set MED or local-pref
Route-map OVERLAP permit
Local-pref would be prefered rather than MED as to determined the exit point. Those the lose rules.
is this the best way, or any other ideas?

  • Connect MacBook to wifi network via Ethernet

    I am looking for a way to connect my MacBook to my wifi network via my Ethernet port. I'm not having any trouble with the wifi but am looking at getting an apple tv and wish to be able to use wolan. As far as I know, wowlan is only available using the apple airport routers. Is there something I can get that plugs into my Ethernet port on my MacBook, connects to the wifi network and lets my MacBook treat it as a wired connection so I can use wolan? I assume something like this would. E cheaper than buying an apple router that supports wowlan...?
    Also, how do I make sure that my current router actually supports wolan?
    Thanks.

    We assume that you are trying to configure the AirPort Express to "join" your wireless network. In order to do so, you must enter in the wireless network name, exact type of security and password that your network is using.
    Mistakes are often made with the security settings because different manufacturers use different nomenclature to mean the same thing. For example
    WPA2 Personal on Apple = WPA2-PSK-AES on other wireless routers
    or
    WPA/WPA2 Personal on Apple = WPA-PSK-TKIP on other wireless routers
    Can you dig a bit deeper into your settings on your router to find out whether you are using AES or TKIP? Once you find that info, you should be able to match up the correct setting on the AirPort Express during the configuration.
    Don't be fooled by the the message that you see when you click Update during the configuration process. The message states something to the effect that the settings have been stored successfully on the AirPort Express. What it doe not tell you is whether the settings that were stored are the correct settings.
    You will know that you have the correct settings when you see a green light on the AirPort Express 40-45 seconds after you click the Update button.

  • Problem with creating an Infrastructure Network (via Access Point) for WLS 9163.

    Hi,
    I am trying to connect the WLS 9163 to an Infrastructure Network (via an Access Point). I have connected it via an Ethernet cable and am using MAX to configure it.
    The setting are as below:
    Obtain IP Address through: DHCP
    Country: US
    Radio On: Yes
    SSID: wireless (selected from drop down implying the wireless network is detected)
    Wireless Mode: Infrastructure
    Authentication: Open
    After doing these settings, I click on Save Settings. The device reboots itself and takes the IP address, Subnet mask and default Gateway automatically. The WLS link LED on the device is also turned on. The System State is 'Connected' and both the Wired and Wireless Connection Status is shown as 'UP'.
    So far so good.
    Now if I remove the wired connection and refresh the device, it does not get connected via wireless (which I believe it ideally should). The System State is shown as Disconnected. 
    I am using a Phoenix Contact WAP and have set the authentication as Open. 
    Please suggest some solution.  

    I had this exact same problem and it took me a while to figure out. As strange as this sounds, I figured out that for some reason if I had the WLS-9163 too close to the router and I pulled the wired connection, the wireless connection could drop. I read on a post in a different forum about someone removing their antenna and it working just fine so I tried that and it worked off and on but mostly off. So I figured out that the further distance away I was the better the connection stability was and I got far enough away from the router to where it was a steady solid wireless connection. This sounds really backwards from what it should be and was really bizarre but I tried different routers, used all different types of settings, had the latest firmware and had all of the equipment sitting on my desk and could not get it working once I removed the wired connection. This may not solve your problem but this worked for me so I thought I'd share that info. I was just so shocked to figure out being too close to the router seemed to be screwing my stuff up.

  • Hello my iphone 3g can not connect to home network via wifi

    Hello to all, with my iphone 3g can not connect to home network via wifi. This only happens if I apply protection to the network. Unprotected my Iphone connects fine. Obviously the password to write error-free. I can not figure out what depends on this factor, however, another iphone connects fine. Help me please.

    I have a similar,but slightly different problem. My iphone 4 recgonizes my home wifi and shows it under Settings, but will not access it, no signal shown, just 3G.  It will access other wifi signals.  My wife's iphone works fine, as does an ipad and macbook.  This is new for my iphone, about 2-3 days.
    Help!  I reset network settings and rebooted the router (Apple), no avail

  • Problems connecting to Wi-Fi network via 3G and 3Gs (due to modal view?)

    I am trying to connect to a protected network via Wi-Fi using two different devices - a 3G (running 3.0) and a 3Gs. This is a corporate network and is only allowed to visit certain websites that are closed off to the outside world. I don't know the exact type of network configuration, but I am unable to connect to sites such as Google, apple.com, etc.
    In both cases, when I choose the network in the settings app, I first see an activity indicator that clues me in to a connection being established. Then, after a moment a modal view slides up that is titled "Log In", and according to the text above the title it is going to http://www.apple.com As said above, if this is truly the case it would be a problem for me since I can't visit apple.com. So I see an error page served up by my network, and I am disconnected.
    Why is this even going to apple.com? Is the modal view some kind of new feature? Is there anyway to disable it? Note that I am not having this problem using an iPhone 3G or iPod Touch using 2.2.1

  • I have an airport express and want to know how to set up two different wireless networks. One with 5GHZ and one with 2.4GHZ so different devices can connect to either.

    I have an airport express and want to know how to set up two different wireless networks. One with 5GHZ and one with 2.4GHZ so different devices can connect to either. I have an iphone 4 that will not connect to 5ghz.
    thank you!

    Your AirPort Express is already providing two separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, but each band is using the same wireless network name.
    This is the default setup for the AirPort Express, which is recommended for most users. The theory here is that devices will automatically connect to the best quality signal based on their capabilities and distance in relation to the AirPort Express.
    It is possible to assign a different name to the 5 GHz band, and then "point" devices at that network to connect. Some users swear by this option.....(I am not one of them).... but you might want to give it a try to see how it works for you.
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the AirPort Express
    Click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next window
    Click Wireless Options near the bottom of the next window
    Enter a check mark next to 5 GHz Name.....which will automatically add "5 GHz" to the network name....so you can identify it
    Click Save, then click Update and wait a full minute for the Express to restart
    Now you will need to "point" your 5 GHz capable devices at the 5 GHz network name.  2.4 GHz devices will connect to your "other" network name.

  • Apple TV Gen 2.. Terribly Slow Streaming From Wired Home Network via itunes Windows 7. Please Help

    Hello all, I just signed up for this as i hope to get more results from here than i did waiting 4 hours for a call from apple today.
    I recently purchased an Apple TV Gen 2.. installed it on my Samsung 40" HDTV via HDMI cable and also ran a network cable to my basement where my router, (Linksys 5 port router plus Wireless) is mounted on the wall beside the cable modem.
    just to rule things out i will give some spec's and details before i get further into this.
    My goal is to use my Desktop Homebuilt PC running windows 7 ultimate 64bit to store my Digital Movie Library and stream through itunes all of my digital media to my Apple TV located in another room. Both Apple TV and my desktop windows 7 PC are hard wired NOT WIRELESS.
    My internet connection is cable and tested it this evening several times at  58.9 Megabits per second down and 8 Megabits per second down... (yes that is correct 58mb/s down. this equates to about 7.1 megabytes per second download speeds for reference.
    Now just to rule out my 2 year old wireless router i went and purchased a brand new router today... Same results.
    Now on to the problem details and my findings.
    Using my Desktop PC wired to try and stream Itunes movies from the streaming is absurdly slow.. very slow... i have yet to wait to see what happens after 30 minutes of waiting for a Movie to start.. music also takes a long time to load...
    Music... i can go to icloud funtion which i paid for today.. and click on the same song in icloud and the song starts almost instantly, so does music videos...
    Also previously purchased TV shows starts playing from the cloud almost instantly as well even HD TV shows...
    Trying to stream anything through my desktop windows 7 pc just doesnt work right...
    I have narrowed this problem down to my desktop.. but can not figure out what the problem is...
    using my macbook air 120GB SSD wireless over the same network, which i also have a mirrored copy of my itunes library for testing purposes... there is zero issues with streaming anything from my macbook air over the same network via wifi...
    Also using my ipad 2 mirroring works flawlessly, even HD movies plays without a hitch... same goes for my iphone 4s
    the only issues i am having are with my desktop and streaming from my itunes libary on it... i do not want to use my macbook air.. as that defeats the purpose of having apple TV.. in the future i plan on ripping my entire DVD / Blueray collection to a 3 TB hard drive and stream to my AppleTV...  from my desktop computer storing my entire DVD / Blue Ray library digitally on the 3TB hard drive....
    But i can not get this to work...  i can see my itunes libary on my desktop.. i can play music and watch movies.. other than anything HD will not play... but everything takes a rediculously long time to load... i can download an entire movie with my 58mb's connection in the time it takes to load something streaming from my itunes libary on my desktop PC...
    if anyone has any suggestions.. there may be something i have overlooked or i am missing. any input and or advice will be greatly appriciated.
    Thanks,

    Ok.. in order to help other users i will post this..
    I have resolved the issue... it was rather simple and dumb...
    I never use windows media player ever.. i do not like it and can not stand it.. because in my case it was a brand new windows installation this fix will only apply to certain users..
    because it was a brand new windows installation.. i had never clicked on windows media player.. apparently streaming settings are embedded into windows media player for the windows 7 OS...    in past installations that i have used for years.. i simply never ever clicked on windows media player, as i never had a reason to.. i use itunes for my ipad, iphone etc.. etc... 
    by accident and shear luck i decided to click on windows media player.. and of course go through the express settings....  after i did this all of my streaming problems to my apple tv gen2 disapeared... HD movies now start almost instantly... so as i stated above apparently there are media streaming settings embedded into the OS through windows media player... doesnt make any sense to me as i never use the program.. but whatever that fixed my issue..
    so for any of you windows 7 people out there using a windows 7 pc as your itunes sync computer and using that itunes library to stream to your apple tv... make sure you have done the initial setup at min.. of windows media player.. i still left itunes as my default player....  everything now works flawlessly... infact for whatever reason.. even in an HD movie my network almost has half the movie synced now accross the bar before the movie starts so now my apple tv is blazing fast....
    i have been struggling with this for 2 days now and simply never gave it a thought that windows media player would ever have anything to do with itunes streaming a totally seperate program.. but it did..
    i hope this helps other people with similar problems.
    good luck

  • Can a HP B210 AIO printer be connected to 2 different wireless networks at the same time?

    I live in a household that has 2 different wireless networks in it (both me and my roommate have our own networks) and we just bought a new B210 series AIO printer.  The printer detects both of our networks but only will print from one network at a time. If I want to print from my network I have to manually go to the wireless network wizard on the printer and select my network and re-enter my password. Is there any way that I can set up the printer to acknowledge both networks without having to constantly switch back and forth?

  • MBP no longer connects to network via Airport

    today my MBP will not connect to my network via airport. Several other apple devices connect to the network no problem. MBP connects to the network OK via ethernet cable.
    When I try to connect it just keep prompting for network password  & user password, generates spinning wheel but then returns invalid password dialogue box. Tried several times and no success - occasionally there is an additional dialogue box " Apple80211agent......."
    Pass word is fine as 5 other devices connect without any issue. What is going on?
    Incidentally, just thought to create another Airport connection and hey presto it connects.
    Still confused.

    Your local LAN runs through your router.
    All your ethernet  ports, and your modem and router, should be behind and filtered from excess current. That means a UPS generally. And run input line thru UPS (coax) first, then run RJ45 back through UPS again (there can still be excess surge or current on the line).
    Modems and routers can be compromised by surge outage or storm. So can ethernet  ports.
    You have two ethernet ports and you tried with both also.
    What you did not do that I would have added is SMC Reset / Reset NVRAM/PRAM.
    This is what I have had for the last year, very nice and stronger  signals thruout the house.

  • Can't connect to WiFi networks via tray icon, manually adding works fine

    I've searched for about a day for anyone having a similar issue and have come up with nothing so far.  I have an older HP laptop with Windows 7 32 bit that is having issues with connecting to WiFi networks.  It will find all available wireless
    networks just fine, and when I select mine, it comes up with the prompt to enter my password, however when I hit OK to connect, the prompt disappears and nothing happens or responds afterwards.  A few things that I've tried in order to troubleshoot and
    narrow down the problem:
    -I've tried connecting to two different wireless networks; one with WPA2 encryption and one with no encryption, both have the same issue (obviously the non-encrypted wireless network doesn't prompt for a password, but once I hit connect all prompts disappear
    and acts as if I did nothing).
    -I've added the WPA2 encrypted network manually to my list of wireless networks, and once I do this it connects just fine.  When removed, it disconnects and the issue happens again (this confirms that the wireless password I'm entering is correct and
    that there are no issues with the wireless network itself, as well as other devices working flawlessly on the same wireless network).
    -I've disabled all firewalls and antivirus through this whole process, did not make a difference.
    -I've reset winsock which didn't make a difference.
    -I've run a virus scan, no viruses on the laptop.
    I've run out of ideas as to what would prevent being able to connect to a wireless network through the normal process of finding nearby access points, putting in your password, and having it work.  I understand that I could simply leave the wireless
    network added manually, but this is not an option for when the laptop is taken elsewhere as having to add whatever wireless network I'm near manually is not something that should have to be done.

    I would recommend to update the driver for you wireless nic as a first step. Also, if installed, get rid of third party utilities that 'manage' your wireless network(s)
    Also check if you can
    clear out the remembered connections i've encountered issues before when a network with same ssid but different connection settings was stored by windows.

  • How do I get connected to a server on my network via an IP address?  When I try to open in a URL and login as a registered user with proper login it errors out saying there was a problem with connecting to the server?

    I am new to Mac...How do I get connected to a server on my network via a hyper link IP address path?  When I try to open in a URL and login as a registered user with proper login it errors out saying there was a problem with connecting to the server?

    Some of the following is going to use some technical terms — this area is inherently somewhat technical. 
    If you don't understand some part of the following reply, please ask.
    Is this your own OS X Server system on your own network, or is this some other server within some larger organization? 
    You're posting this in the OS X Server forum, which is a software package that allows OS X systems to provide web-based and many other services; to become servers.
    If it's your OS X Server on your network, then the network and DNS configurations are suspect, or the server is somehow malfunctioning or misconfigured.   This is unfortunately fairly common, as some folks do try to avoid setting up DNS services.
    If it's a larger organization and somebody else is managing the server and the network, then you'll probably need to contact the IT folks for assistance; to learn the network setup and DNS requirements, and if there's a problem with the server itself.
    The basic web URL "hyper link IP address path" — without using DNS — usually looks something the following, where you'll need to replace 10.20.30.40 with the IP address of your server:
    http://10.20.30.40
    UptimeJeff has posted a URL that specifies the AFP file system; an OS X file share.  That's used if you're connecting to an Apple storage service somewhere on your network.  You might alternatively need to specify smb://10.20.30.40 or such, if it's a Windows file server.  (There can be additional requirements for connecting to Windows Server systems, too.)
    If there's local IT staff available here, please contact them for assistance.  If these are your own local systems and your own local OS X Server system, then some information on the server will be needed.  (If you're on a NAT'd network, you'll also need to get DNS services configured and working on your local OS X Server system and your network — you'll not be able to skip this step and reference ISP DNS servers here — or things can and usually will get weird.)

  • Unable to connect Panasonic HDTV to home network via Wi-Fi

    I am unable to connect my Panasonic TC-L37E3 to the internet via Wi-Fi.  I purchased the additional Wi-Fi adapter for the set, and while setting up the connection I am able to see my wireless network on the TV.
    I have a basic WEP key, but I am unable to connect to the network via any of the connection options given.  For every option there is a two minute timeout which is the eventual result of each connection attempt.
    My router is 9100EM, with at 10M/2M service plan.  I am unable to connect the TV directly to the router via CATV since it is a considerable distance.
    Has anyone experienced a similar issue or can suggest any troubleshooting actions?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Try switching the router off of WEP and onto WPA2. There is a WEP Setting regarding Authentication that allows for Open or Closed authentication, but even then, devices expect Open. WPA2 is faster and more secure, and it's a good bet that the TV will work once you switch the router over.
    You can change the security settings by going to http://192.168.1.1/ and logging in using admin as the username, and your router's serial number as the password. In the Advanced Wireless Settings, you'll find the option for WPA2. Enable that option with Pre-Shared Key and set a Passphrase (if one is not already set), and then set up your devices to use that Passphrase (is case sensitive) once you apply the settings.

  • WiFi connections are unstable on multiple different WiFi networks

    Has there been any updates on the unstable WiFi connection issues with the Note 3? I have this issue with multiple different WiFi networks even though signal strength is not an issue when it happens. I picked up my Note 3 in August/Sept 2013.
    1. Work WiFi
    2. Home 2.4G channel and 5G channel
    From what I have searched so far, I am by far not the only person with this issue, but I have yet to see a fix or any kind of legitimate input  from Verizon on this issue.
    The issue even happens in SafeMode so I know its not an app that I downloaded that is causing this issue.
    Thanks

    Samsung is aware of the issue. The fix is supposedly with Kit Kat.
    They may suggest you going to a Best Buy mobile and have the software removed and put back on. Been there done that, didn't work.
    Sending a replacement out isn't going to help. It is a known software issue, and it will continue until there is a build that fixes the issue. IE: Kit Kat.
    You should have the MJE build. This software is the problem. MJ5 was no problem. If you get a replacement MJE should be on it, if not as soon as you put the SIM card in it will start to download it.

  • Sync iPad with an internal network via WIFI and file exchange?

    Hi all,
    Our architects firm is currently trying to cut down on its paper waste. One sollution we are exploring is a system by which Ipad's can be synced with our internal file network (via wifi), we can download onto an Ipad PDF files which can be viewed, annotated and reuploaded via the network. It would be essential that the network is internal and isn't an icloud type of thing. Is such a system possible?
    Thanks

    This will give you access to the documents.  You are own your own about version control.
