Link b/w router and switch

I am useing 2600 series router and trying to link it with a 2950 switch,
2950 switch is attached with a internet connection & layer 3 switches, 2600 series router is connecting with 2950 at the client permises, what will be the port configuration at both 2950 & 2600 series devices,
currently i configure sw mod trunk at 2950,
and IP at the fastethernet port of 2600 series router.
But when ever i try to telnet the router it cannot telnet

What VLAN are the devices from which you wish to telnet to the router ?
You need to configure the router as follows:
interface fastethernet0/1.10
encapsulation dot1q
ip address
Where VLAN is the VLAN you want to get to the router from ...
Pls do remember to rate posts.

  • Syslog for router and switch

    Hi all,
             Any one help me to configure router and switch log on windows server. I dont have any idea please send me link or guide to configure syslog server on windows.  For PPTP vpn users also.

    Hi,
    Are you asking, "How do I set up my Windows server as a Syslog Server"... in order to receive messages from your routers and switches?
    If so, I'd suggest a google search on syslog server - locate and download the software there, and it should have a configuration guide with it.
    Was this the information you were looking for?

  • Power consumption for router and switch

    I have a linksys EZSX88W switch which I checked power consumption of 70ma idle. It's supplied by the adapter which has an output of 1000ma. Not sure what the consumption when switch is being used. I also have an WRT54GS but haven't checked consumption yet, but it's powered by the same 1000ma adapter. In an effort to save energy-that -GREEN FEELING- I was thinking of using on power adapter to power bothe the router and switch. Has anyone tried this yet?? Also if I posted this in the wrong area I hope the moderator will move the post.
    thanks

    So you are thinking of Powering on both the Devices using a single Power Adapter? Well never tried to make both the devices use a single power adapter. As far as i think its not possible. But if you still wish, you can give a try and check if that works for you or not.

  • Help with connecting MacBook Pro with Cisco Routing and Switches?

    I'm running a CiscoASA 5510 router with several Cisco WS-C2960-48TT-L switches on a local network to connect with MacBook Pro. I need to be able to restrict access to specific users via their computer MAC address. ie: Joe Blow is limited to connecting through Switch 1 on port 10 and anywhere else he tries to plug in will simply not work.

    You need to look at the documentation that came with your router and switches. Or ask your network admin to set it up. Your question has nothing to do with your Macbook Pro configuration. MAC filtering is done in the router not in the computers/devices connecting to the router.

  • Behind Router and Switch, Can't Enter URLs Without Dot-Com

    Hello all,
    I switched my networking situation this morning and now I've lost my favorite feature...the ability to enter URLs without a .com and have Safari auto-complete them. Here's my setup:
    Wall->modem->D-Link Wireless-G Router->Netgear Gigabit Switch->iMac
    Before, I just had my iMac connected directly to the modem, but now I have some new devices that I needed to network in. The Internet and everything else is working correctly, it's just that one thing that really bothers me. I've thumbed around through manuals and D-Link's router settings and I can't seem to find the giant on/off switch switched to off. Any ideas? Help?
    Thanks!

    Based on your description of the change, my guess is that your iMac used to deal with Time Warner DNS directly and now it may be using the DNS routing settings in the D-Link. As the former owner of a D-Link I would guess you might go look in the WAN settings for the DNS field on the D-Link (in the browser-based configuration utility) and make sure the IP address there matches whatever you had entered in the DNS field in the Network settings on your Mac.

    Hi Moh,
      First, thanks for pointing out that I'm in the wrong section of the forums.  My bad.  I'll pay closer attention next time.
      Second, I tried your suggestion but it failed to work.  I cleared the configs of the router so I could start with a clean slate and followed your commands to the letter.  The host can't seem to get an IP assigned and the here's what I get with a Show IP DHCP Pool:
    Router_1#show ip dhcp pool
    Pool vlan1 :
     Utilization mark (high/low)    : 100 / 0
     Subnet size (first/next)       : 0 / 0

     192.168.10.1         192.168.10.1     - 192.168.10.254    0
      Am I missing something?

  • Router and Switch Passwords

    Hi all
    What is the difference in setting passwords to access the console, Telnet (line vty 0 4) and other passwords in routers and switches. Are all the commands and where you set the passwords at the cmd prompts the same etc
    Regards
    Glenn

    console password is used to authenticate user when user will try to access device through console port.
    Telnet password is used to authenticate user when user will telnet to the device from remotely.
    Hope this URL will give you more information.

    I did try to change duplex setting on fa0/0 of router to Full, but the interface went down and I lost the connectivity to the switch.

    > I did try to change duplex setting on fa0/0 of router to Full, but the interface went down and I lost the connectivity to the switch.
    Did you wait some time to let the divices reestablish the connection again?
    I would configure the Switchport to auto/auto in that case. Autonegotiation works (most of the times ;-) ).

  • "no keepalive" and "no shutdown" command on router and switch interface

    Hello
    I am confused about the “no keepalive” and “no shutdown” command on different interface type on router. In serial interface, the status is down/down. But in ethernet interface, it is up/up. Could anyone please clear me?
    And can this reason apply with Catalyst too?

  • Cisco VMS can support management of router and switches

    I want to use Cisco VMS to manage my IPS and firewalls.
    A also have two routere and five switches in place can i use the same software to monitor and manage them or I need separate software.

    VMS 2.3 components and the capabilities of each. VMS is packaged in one sub-box with Obtaining Documentation directing you to VMS documentation and the following two CDs:

  • Remote route and switch management

    Good afternoon support community,
    Does Cisco have a replacement for the 2811 console servers, newer with more features? I have been looking at opengear, but I wanted to know if Cisco had something equivalent to it. I'm looking for a way to manage devices via console, on a out of band network. If you have any recommendation please feel free to post them.
    Thank you for your input.
    Delmiro

    There's not a direct replacement for the 2811 console server / router as far as I know.
    Most customers I see are choosing either Opengear products or the Emerson (former Avocent, former Cyclades) ACS console servers. Link

  • Will the expiring CCNP route exam still be valid with the newer Troubleshoot and switch 2.0 exams?

    Hi everyone,
    I plan on taking my CCNP (route) exam within the next month but I just notice that the exam will only be valid until Jan of 2015. Now my question is that if I take the exam older exam will it still be valid to combine the newer  "Trouble shoot 2.0" and "Switch 2.0"? I would like to take the current route test instead of the newer version becaue I've been studying it but I like to know if it will be uselss or not when combining the other to make myself an official CCNP certification holder. 

    I have found on search:
    Q. Can I mix the current exams with newer exams to achieve CCNP Routing and Switching?
    A. Yes, it is possible to mix version 1 and version 2 exams, but if you completed version 1 exams for ROUTE or SWITCH, then you will need to prepare version 2 ROUTE & SWITCH as well in order to pass the TSHOOT v2 exam because the TSHOOT v2 exam assumes knowledge of ROUTE v2 and SWITCH v2 topics.
    The answer is unclear, yes you can mix, but you will have to prepare for version 2. I hope it's wrong information.

  • Using a router or switch with Airport Extreme

    I currently have an Airport Extreme 5th generation working great for my home network!  My ISP Modem (on ground floor "Level-B" of 3 story house including basement) attaches to the Airport Extreme via an ethernet cable into the WAN port.  Then each of the 3 LAN ports is in use:
    #1 going to my "main Mac" - MBP-13" just a few feet from the Airport Extreme in my lower level basement office (Level-A)
    #2 going upstairs to a non-WiFi eMac (Feb 2005) - that's on Level-C
    #3 going to my Canon MP640 printer/scanner so that I can use it for scanning (it is attached via USB to the Airport Extreme but that does not permit scanning)  This is located next to my MBP on Level-A
    OK but now I want to try to get my 1997 LaserWriter 12/640 PS (works great!) (and I have 2 expensive toner cartridges left!) set-up and I have some instructions on how to do this.  It will likely necessitate me having my Mac Pro G4-733 running OS 9.2.2 and the LW 12/640 both connected to my network via ethernet cables.  That's 5 connections and I only have 3 ports going out.
    But I do own a D-Link DIR-635 router and also an 8 port Peabird 8 por 10/100 Switch.  Can I use either of these to do the setup?
    OR - can I simply unplug the MP640 printer and the eMac for an hour or so that it will take to configure (if I can) the LW 12/640?
    OK but then if I do configure it, I won't need the G4-733 Power PC any longer, but I will want the LW 12/640 as part of my network so will at least need a 4th ethernet port at that time.  Do I then need to attach the router (or switch) and then connect the LW12/640 (and something else as the router or switch will use up one of the 3 Airport Extreme ethernet LAN ports…)
    Thanks for any comments on how to proceed here.
    Best regards,
