Migrate/Replace Cat 6500 Supervisor

Any guides or tips on how to replace a Cat 6500 Sup 32 8G with Sup 720 10G? This is a single 6509 with 2 sup engines.
thanks

Because your supervisors are different you will need to remove both supervisors and replace them at the same time. You won't be able to run a SUP32 and a SUP720 at the same time.

Replacement for Cat 6500

Hi all
Is there a replacement for Cat 6500

Hi ,
You can use DFC4XL . XL means , it has more memory and store more TCAM table .
What is the difference between DFC4 and DFC4XL?
A. DFC4XL offers more scalability in terms of IPv4/IPv6 FIB entries, ACL entries, and NetFlow entries compared with DFC4 (see Table 3). Other than those hardware scalability differences, there are no feature differences between DFC4 and DFC4XL.
Table 3. Feature Differences Between DFC4 and DFC4XL

How to Configure Transparent caching on Cat 6500 with CSM in bridge mode?

hi.
I found How to Configure Transparent caching on Cat 6500 with CSM in routed mode.
But,
I need help How to Configure Transparent caching on Cat 6500 with CSM in bridge mode?
Please let me know sample configuration.
thanks.

Hi,
I wrote the document you mentioned and I also wrote the one below.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/modules/ps2706/products_configuration_example09186a00802c1201.shtml
The one with the SSLM is a bridge mode config.
If you replace the SSLM with a cache [or a farm of caches] it would be a similar config.
Replace the SSL21 vserver with an HTTP vserver [most important is to keep the vlan configured on each vserver]

Cat 6500 with DCNM 6.2(1)

Hi there,
for test purposes I installed Cisco Prime DCNM 6.2. It works great with out Nexus 5k and 7k, however I have trouble with our older Cat 6500 devices. While I know that support for these devices is limited I am surprised that the portchannels could not be discovered performance wise and in regard to the topology map, even if they are connected to N7k's. Neither the normal portchannel ISLs between different 6500 nor the vPCs between 6500 and N7k appear in the topology, although the switches were successfully discovered and are considered "managable" via snmp and ssh.
Is there anything I need to do to make it work?
Best regards
Pille

Rafael,
I had the same issue. You need to go into ACS and create a custom Shell Profile (Policy Elements > Authorization and Permissions > Device Administration > Shell Profiles), flip to the "Custom Attributes" tab, and add the following:
Attribute: cisco-av-pair
Requirement: Mandatory
Attribute Value: Static
Value: shell:roles="network-admin"
...although if you want a non-admin or DCNM "User" role, you would use the following instead:
Value: shell:roles="network-operator"
Save that. Then make sure your Device Admin Authorization Policy (Access Policies > Access Services > Default Device Admin > Authorization) references that Shell Profile in the "Results" section.
I'm using DCNM version 6.2(5) and this works.
Here's a useful link for more info: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9911/products_configuration_example09186a0080bf5512.shtml

Who is anybody using a WISM with FWSM on a CAT 6500 Switch?

Hi
Who is anybody using a WISM with FWSM on CAT 6500 switch ?
Are there any problem,if use?
And How can I set them to connecting each other ?
I have founded a document relate it on the cisco website that name is Integrating Cisco WiSM and Firewall Service Module.
I have a question concern it.
Why do I have make a VRF to communication each other ?
Please let me know.

As far as the FWSM is concerned you can have each of the wireless vlans come in to the same context of the FWSM and then just add those vlans to the FWSM as separate vlans.

Hi,
I`m configuring 802.1q trunking between CAT 6500 and passport 8600, in CAT 6500 I configure the port as trunk dot1q mode ON. In Passport 8600 I configure the port as TAG port.
I cretate the same vlans in both switch, but the interface vlans are create in CAT Switch. all hosts in Passport Switch that belongs to vlan 1 can ping his default gateaway (Interface Vlan) but hosts that belong to other vlan no.

How to Configure Transparent caching on Cat 6500 with CSM in routed mode

I am trying to configure Transparent caching on Cat 6500 with CSM in routed mode, but facing some problems in it , also I have gone thru the example config on cisco site for transparent caching using CSM on Cat 6500 , but the above does not fit my clients requirement.
The scenario is like
Access Switches - Cat6500 with MSFC & CSM - Internet Router
|
Cache Engines and Real servers
The clients as well as real servers are on seperate VLANs (L3) and the requirement is to load balance the internet traffic using cache engines.
I'd really appreciate any helpful suggestions or any useful links/docs/info on this.
Thanks
kumar

Hello Joerg,
Thanks for the reply.
I have already gone thru the sample config shown by this weblink, however this link refers to configuring transparent caching on the CSM in BRIDGED MODE ( i.e both the client and server vlans are having the same IP address ) but in our case , we have multiple L3 VLANS on the CAT6509 having IP addresses in different SUBNETS , and the Real servers to be used for caching also exist on one of these VLANS. Thus, the scenario described by the Weblink does not apply here. Also , in the configuration referred by the above weblink, the VLAN 100 is configured as client , however the endusers are shown to be on vlan200 which is configured as SERVER VLAN in the CSM.
Dont you think there is something wrong here, I mean the endusers should be on VLAN 100 (Client) and real servers on VLAN 200 (SERVER).
So, I have to configure CSM in routed mode ( i.e both the client and server vlans will have seperate IP addresses in different subnets ) and the endusers will be on all VLANS .
Pls let me know , how I can implement this solution.
Thanks again

Jumbo Frame - Enabling on a VLAN of CAT 6500 running IOS

Jumbo frames needs to be enabled on one of the vlan interface on Cisco 6500 IOS Switch.
=================================================================
•1) Once enabled the mtu 9216 on the required vlan interface do we need to reload the switch to take effect (I believe that in some low end swicthes it needs a reload)
•2) If we enable only one Vlan interface, how about the other vlan interfaces(about 200 are on this switch)? Do we need to specify mtu1500 on other vlan interfaces?
I have read information at the following two links, but I still wish to reconfirm by asking the questions in this forum. Someone who has already implemented this may have gained more experience while implementing it on CAT 6500 IOS Switch.

You do not need to reboot your 6500 after you enable jumbo frames, but it is good idea to do it during an outage window. You only need to reboot smaller switches i.e. 3560, 3750, etc...after enabling jumbo frames. On these switches you can only enable it globally. Only enable jumbo frames for the vlans you need. You usually need jumbo frames for vlans connecting to the storage systems.
Good Luck

Cat 6500 doesn't appear in Topology View after replacement of the Supervisor engine

Hi.
I've a problem with a LMS 3.2 (latest updates).
We've replaced the supervisor engine with a new one (there was no change in model or IOS).
All is working fine, but only one thing is missing: The device was in the unreachable status in CM-Topology-View. So, I've deleted the switch into the Topo-View and rediscovered. The device doesn't appear. I've deleted the device in CS and redescover the hole net. Same effect: the device is present in RME, DFM, IPM, but not in CM-Topo-View.
The communication between NMS and device has neighter abnormalities nor other problems. I've checked ICMP, TFTP, Telnet, SSH, HTTP, HTTPS, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3.
All inventory jobs, Config jobs, DFM-Polling-Jobs and so on are working properly with this device.
Any ideas?
Regards
Markus

Hi.
Thx a lot ... the clearing of the cache was successful.
but where is the interrelationship between the discovery/data collection and the browser cache? Why I set the option to "every visit of the page" for temporarily internet files?

Cisco Catalyst 6500 Supervisor Engine 2T Baseboard

Morning Guys
i have just bought a Cisco 6506-E Chassis, it came out with only the SUP2T Engine on slot 5, i have already stacked 3 switches (3750-X) as my core, i want to replace them with the chassis the problem now is my company doesn't have money to buy the 48 port switch and the fibre switch for the chassis, help me link the SUP2T Engine with the stack and improve my network. i also have the 12 port netgear fibre switch. help with the configuration.

You obviously need to configure the ports etc. but the switch should recognise the module as long as you have an IOS that supports it.
There is nothing extra to do, you just slot the module in.
If you are connecting all your distribution switches to the 6500 then if you don't need a vlan/IP subnet in multiple buildings then you should use L3 connections to the 6500.
Note also that you may want to consider at some time in the future a second supervisor or another chassis as this 6500 with one supervisor is a single point of failure ie. if it goes then there is no communication between buildings.

Replacement catalyst 6500 switches under redundancy environment

Hi everyone,
I plan to replace old core catalyst 6500 switches with new ones for the purpose of reinforcement.
Now two core catalyst 6500 switches are working under redundancy environment.
There are many catalyst 6500 switches as distribution switch connect to each core catalyst
6500 switches as attached.
I think there are two ways to replace core catalyst 6500 switches.
[One]
Replacing one core catalyst 6500 switches first, then one week later, replacing another core
catalyst 6500 switch. And all traffic will be handled another core catalyst 6500 switch automatically
by EIGRP routing during replacement.
Advantage:
One another core catalyst 6500 switch continues operating even if the replacement fail.
Disadvantage:
Two core catalyst 6500 switches will operate in a different version (CatOS, MSFC IOS) for one week.
Any problem might be happened due to this issue.
[Two]
Replacing both core catalyst 6500 switches at the same time.
Advantage:
Replacement will be finished at one time
Disadvantage:
If the replacement fail, whole network goes to down and it cause critical situation.
I have to replace successfully so I would like know good information about this, such as
best practice, case study and so on.
Your information would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,

Hi,
If I were you, I will go for option 1.
This option will give us the time to observe the traffic pattern, time to get the network and EIGRP to stabilize and even to check for any issues on the IOS part.
This will give you time frame to work out for any issue if it happens in between the weeks time.This will gibe you tha time to see for any imcompatibilty issues as such.
HTH, Please rate if it does.
