Migrating from Rapid-PVST+ to MST
We wish to migrate our Rapid-PVST+ network of around 25 switches to MST but for reasons that we believe are valid we do not want to start with the core switches. We want to convert one part of our network first that is connected to the core with a single trunk link.
We are refering to this document: Understanding Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1s) and in particular the section headed 'Alternate Configuration (Not Recommended)'. We can accomodate the drawbacks of this scenario, and in any case it will only be a temporary setup unitl we complete the migration.
Under 'Invalid Configuration' it states that "If the PVST+ bridge is the root, this bridge must be the root for all VLANs (including the CST, which always runs on VLAN 1, regardless of the native VLAN, when the CST runs PVST+)". My question is if this is strictly correct (the border bridge MUST be the root for all the VLANs) or if the PVST+ sub-section as a whole must contain the root (e.g. the next PVST+ bridge in the topology would also be valid if its priority were high enough)?

Hi Daniel,
Let me start by explaining what is the problem with MSTP/PVST+ interoperation. Things to watch out for are direct consequences of the interoperation limitations so it is vital to understand what is going on.
When MSTP region is connected to an (R)PVST+ region, it tries to speak (R)PVST+ and process received (R)PVST+ BPDUs. This process is called PVST Simulation. However, there are major difficulties in this process: the (R)PVST+ uses per-VLAN semantics while MSTP runs instances with VLANs simply mapped onto them. The role and state of an MSTP boundary port is always determined by the IST ( = MSTI0) instance talking to the outside world, and is simply inherited by all instances running in the MSTP region. That means that if the port is discarding in IST, it is discarding in all instances (and hence all VLANs). If the port is forwarding in IST, it is forwarding in all instances (and hence all VLANs). The same goes for every role/state combination. This fact makes it impossible to do any per-VLAN semantics on an MSTP boundary port. Even if you tried to map incoming (R)PVST+ BPDUs into appropriate instances, you could arrive to an unsolvable situation where the port should be discarding for one VLAN and forwarding for another, although they are both mapped to the same MSTP instance.
These limitations are the guidelines according to which the PVST Simulation works. Because the MSTP boundary port should use only IST data when speaking to the outside world (that is how MSTP boundary port should operate according to IEEE specifications), PVST Simulation makes use of it: it takes the IST data and replicates it into PVST+ BPDUs sent out for all VLANs defined on the switch. In other words, an MSTP boundary port speaking to PVST+ region sends one PVST+ BPDU for each VLAN that is defined on the switch, using IST data as the contents of this BPDU. Essentially, this makes the entire MSTP region look like a single huge switch identically configured for each and every VLAN, with the configuration simply taken from the IST.
Doing this is easy. However, the opposite process is much more constraining: an MSTP boundary port tries to process every received PVST+ BPDU using the IST instance. This is where the troubles begin. If all received PVST+ BPDUs are supposed to allow stable and unambiguous determination of the MSTP boundary port role and state, they must be identical, i.e. the same Root Bridge ID, the same Sending Bridge ID, same Root Path Cost, same Sending Port ID, perhaps even the same timers in each received PVST+ BPDU (sorry for the "perhaps" word here - the PVST Simulation is practically undocumented and these are only my experiences - some areas are still white). Failure to meet this requirement, i.e. receiving two or more differing PVST+ BPDUs on an MSTP boundary port, results in PVST Simulation inconsistency and into permanent blocking of that port until the conflicting PVST+ BPDUs cease to be received.
Note that this requirement of receiving identical PVST+ BPDUs is impossible to achieve with current Catalyst switches: every recent Catalyst switch is using Extended System ID, i.e. it inserts the VLAN ID into the Bridge ID when creating a BPDU for a particular VLAN. Even if you configured the PVST+ region so that a single switch was the root bridge for all VLANs, its PVST+ BPDUs would still differ because each of them would carry a different Extended System ID in the RBID/SBID field.
The only way to prevent these problems is to make sure that the MSTP region is considered as the root switch for all VLANs. Because it is the IST whose data is visible outside the MSTP region, this can be accomplished by configuring the bridge priority on the IST root bridge so low that it beats all switches in the PVST+ region and thereby becomes the root bridge for all VLANs.
Now to your questions:
We are refering to this document: Understanding Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1s) and in particular the section headed 'Alternate Configuration (Not Recommended)'. We can accomodate the drawbacks of this scenario, and in any case it will only be a temporary setup unitl we complete the migration.
That document is a perfect reference. However, it does not describe the troubles related to the PVST Simulation because it does not take the Extended System ID into account. In fact, the scenario with the PVST+ region containing the root bridge for all VLANs is not possible to accomplish with current Catalyst switches. It is ironical that by striving for compatibility between MSTP and Cisco (R)PVST+, Cisco has actually created a situation where it is very easy to be incompatible. So in my opinion, you cannot accomodate for such a setup - you can not afford having a root switch in the PVST+ region because that would most probably lead to MSTP boundary ports being blocked due to PVST Simulation inconsistency.
I shall stress that these problems are created in particular by the PVST Simulation. Switches running pure IEEE STP/RSTP do not cause these problems because they run a single (R)STP instance for all VLANs. An MSTP boundary port can talk to a single external (R)STP always without problems - a single (R)STP can never produce two conflicting BPDUs. It is as easy as that. It is the overdone striving for compatibility with PVST+ BPDUs that is causing these troubles.
Under 'Invalid Configuration' it states that "If the PVST+ bridge is the root, this bridge must be the root for all VLANs (including the CST, which always runs on VLAN 1, regardless of the native VLAN, when the CST runs PVST+)". My question is if this is strictly correct (the border bridge MUST be the root for all the VLANs) or if the PVST+ sub-section as a whole must contain the root (e.g. the next PVST+ bridge in the topology would also be valid if its priority were high enough)?
It is not the border bridge exactly that must be the root bridge for all VLANs. As I explained earlier, the MSTP region talks to the outside world using IST data. If the MSTP region is to become a root bridge for all VLANs, then the IST root bridge priority must be the lowest among all PVST+ bridges. The IST root bridge itself can perfectly be an internal switch somewhere deep inside the MSTP region.
The same would be valid if the PVST+ region was to become the region containing the root bridge for all VLANs. This root bridge can be any switch inside the PVST+ region, not just a boundary switch. However, this would require, among other things, deactivating the Extended System ID which is not possible.
Please feel welcome to ask further!
Best regards,
Peter

Migration from rapid-pvst to mst
Hi, we need to migrate our switching network (2 6513 and 8 4507 all running ios, we are using more than 200 vlan) from rapid-pvst to mst (we are going to interconnect some non-cisco switch). Is there any suggestion about this migration? Thank you.
Since you're having more than 200 vlan's, this suggestion of migrating from PerVlan RSTP(PVRSTP) to Multiple Spanning Tree (MST) is a good one. Before that ensure whether your cisco ios version supports MST feature. I think your catalyst switches all will support MST. It has2 main advantages.
1.Load Balancing,
2.Less cpu burden.
The following document explains in detail about MST:

A small conundrum which I can't get my head around. can someone please help.
I have a meshed layer 2 network with multiple vlans in my server farm connecting to two core routers. All these devices are running in 802.1d Spanning Tree.
I want to migrate all these to 802.1w Rapid spanning Tree. However all the documentation I read suggets that when I reconfigure a switch to Rapid it will listen on its links to utilise the appropriate protocol (802.1w or 802.1d)in use by the connected switches.
As all my switches work in 802.1d mode as I migrate a switch it will be Rapid capable but will work in 802.1d mode because all the other switches are in this mode.
Changing an attached switch to rapid will result in that listening after the config change and it will only hear 802.1d from the other switches(whether they are rapid or not) because that is what is in use.
Eventually all but one of my switches will be rapid capable but they will all work in 802.1d mode. I'll then make the config change on this last switch, it will listen to waht is being talked (802.1d) and will then come up in that mode.
So all my switches are now rapid capable but are working in non-rapid 802.1d mode.
How do I make them use the 802.1w protocol ????
The config change doesn't take up or down the point to point links and I don't reboot after making the change. Hence from the documentation the port just listens and uses what is being sent from the other end which will be 802.1d!!!
I must be missing something or not understanding things correctly. Can someone please advise how the links become 802.1W
ThanksThanks for your help Gents.
I have managed to find a definitive answer to my question by much searching on the Cisco Website and comments made by yourselves.
The definitive answer is:
1. RSTP selectively sends 802.1D-configured BPDUs and topology change notification (TCN) BPDUs on a per-port basis.
2. When a port initializes, the migration-delay timer starts and RSTP BPDUs are transmitted. While the migration-delay timer is active, the bridge processes all BPDUs received on that port.
3. If the bridge receives an 802.1D BPDU after a ports migration-delay timer expires, the bridge assumes it is connected to an 802.1D bridge and starts using only 802.1D BPDUs.
4. When RSTP uses 802.1D BPDUs on a port and receives an RSTP BPDU after the migration-delay expires, RSTP restarts the migration-delay timer and begins using RSTP BPDUs on that port.
The upshot of all this is that when a switch is configured for rapid spanning tree (spanning-tree mode rapid-pvst), the switch initializes its ports. It will immediately start sending RSTP BPDUs. If the Switch on the other end of the link(s) understands RSTP BPDUs it will then start to send RSTP BPDUs. When the migration delay timer expires they will be talking to each other in Rapid spanning Tree mode.
Switch links that have non Rapid switches at the other end will come up in 802.1D mode.
The Switch will then have different links operating in different modes. In essence a hybrid Switch.
Consequently converting a large meshed switch network to Rapid spanning Tree is quite easy and simple. Just change switches one at a time and the links will automatically change to 802.1w where possible and will remain 802.1d where not. Eventually the entire network will progressively become 802.1w as more switches are reconfigured, until it is completely 802.1w

i'm searching for a document that helps me configuring Rapid PVST+?
Another issue, if you have around 20 VLANs, is it recommended to go to Rapid PVST+ or MST?
Thanks in advance
Abd AlqaderHi Ankur,
Thanks for your response.
i'm confused about the difference between RSTP, PVST+, and Rapid PVST+.
Also, when you have to span the VLANs (around 25 VLANs) across multiple access switches, with 2 uplinks from each to the two 6509 switches (both will be distribution & core). I'm thinking to implement either Rapid PVST+ or MST (manual load balance) with HSRP.
root switch VLAN will be the primary HSRP.
Is this a good design, or do you have another opinion?
Thanks in advance

Rapid-PVST+ Interacting with MSTP
Hi,
we want to implement MSTP at customer side. unfortunately there are some legacy switches who don't understand MSTP.
so we'll have to implement a "hybrid scenario" where the "core" speaks MSTP using instances and the access-switches are
using their "old" spanning tree protocol (talking with the Instance 0 of the MSTP).
now my question:
when the core is migrated to MSTP, is the IST Spanning Tree able to talk with legacy switches in a "rapid way"
(if the support it)?
i found a cisco document which deals with this topic, but i'm not completely sure that it answers my question....
Rapid-PVST+ Interacting with MSTP
An MSTP switch interacts with a Rapid-PVST+ switch in the same way that an MSTP switch interacts
with PVST+ switch. (See IST Interacting with PVST+.) The MSTP switch will send IST BPDUs in
802.1D format on all VLANs to the Rapid-PVST+ switch and IST will consider the port connected to
the Rapid-PVST+ switch to be at the boundary of the MST region.
Has anyone of you experience with such "hybird" MST/Rapid-PVST+ configurations?
thanks a lot for your answers &
kind regards,
BernhardHi Bernard,
In that scenario, as mentioned in the document, the MST region is going to send plain STP BPDUs to the rapid-PVST region. So basically, only STP will be run at the boundary between MST and rapid-PVST. In particular, there will be no proposal agreement possible on the vlans because MST only runs one instance (the CIST, instance 0), while rapid-pvst runs several instances (one per vlan). So the MST side does not have a per-vlan context that would allow it to answer the proposal from each individual PVST+ instance. To be honest with you, that could probably have been enhanced, but the interaction rapid-PVST/MST has never been a priority, as we hope that customers will be able to migrate the whole network to MST and only use this interaction as a temporary solution.

Francois -
Behavior of running PVST+ & Rapid-PVST+ simultaneously?
Say you have a network w/ 10 switches.
9 of them run Rapid PVST, and one runs the legacy PVST.
Would the entire L2 network fall back to legacy PVST, or only the segment where the one switch that's not yet converted to Rapid?
This Cisco doc says: "
When any RSTP port receives legacy 802.1D BPDU, it falls back to legacy STP and the inherent fast convergence benefits of 802.1w are lost when it interacts with legacy bridges."
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps708/products_configuration_example09186a00807b0670.shtml
However, it doesn't really say if the compatibility fall-back applies to just one segment, or the entire network.
Also, what's the best way to migrate from 802.1D to 802.1w?
Is it best to go bottom-up (start from access, distro, then core), or top-down?
I've been doing it bottom-up, but wanted to know if that's appropriate.
thx

Also believing, like Peter, STP with rapid-STP impacts only the joint segment, I prefer STP root core toward edge conversions. This to get the rapid-STP benefit to the core first, and to be able to selectively chose what "branches" I convert next. I.e. I might not convert from core to edge one hop layer at a time, but might choose a partial "tree" from the core. -
Spanning-tree modes: PVST vs RAPID-PVST
I am upgrading an old network and as I add switches, I would like them to run rapid-pvst, instead of just pvst which is what the older switches are running.
Last I checked (with a Cisco techie at Networkers 2006), it was OK to have trunked switches with different modes (pvst and rapid-pvst)... but now I'm hearing differently from a few other sources.
Can someone please verify if this is a concern and if so, how should one proceed?
Cheers...rapid-pvst+ can be migrated into your pvst+ environment.
rapid-pvst+ configured switches revert to pvst+ to provide interoperability.
cisco recommends configuring the rapid-pvst+ and pvst+ for different STP instances. the rapid-pvst+ root switch must be running rapid-pvst+ and the pvst+ root switch must be running pvst+; as well, the pvst+ switches should be at the edge of the network.
(this being said, upgrade your core first and move outward. keep your pvst+ root switch out of the core where rapid-pvst+ will be running)
please see the following link for more info:

PVST+ vs rapid-PVST+
I have a network which consists of 28 2955C switches connected in a ring. The spanning tree works correctly if all of the switches are configured for PVST+. However if all of the switches are configured for rapid-PVST+ then multiple problems occur. Among them multiple roots, multiple switches disappearing from the network etc. Anyone know why?
Hello,
without knowing the exact details of your setup, make sure that all your VLANs are part of MST, since you cannot run PVST and MSTP at the same time. Also, try and set the root switch for your MST instance(s) manually, by using the 'spanning-tree mst instance-id root' command on the respective root switch.

Hi,
I'm working for a company that has 2x 6500 chasis switches in the main building as Core switches (CORE1 and CORE2). There are 3 other buildings that house employees (Building 2 and Building 3) and a DR site. The "Core" switches at these other buildings are 3750 switches (stacks of 2). The buildings are connected with 1Gb fibre (MM) leased lines in a square:
Since a few days we are seeing alot of spanning tree recalculations on the Core switches of Building 2 and 3 which causes alot of network issues for the people in those buildings. More precisely the Gi1/0/1 interface on both core switches of those buildings (see red crosses in picture) are constantly displaying these messages:

And less than a minute later the same again. This is happening with all VLANs. There's about 125 VLANs and all go over the square.
From what I understand this means BPDU packts are not received in time (2 seconds) and spanning tree starts recalculation. We already asked the provider of the leased lines to test them but they claim nothing is wrong with them. It"s also a bit weird that we are seeing this on 2 different places (physically different locations and lines).
CPU usage looks normal (around 14%) on all switches in this square. Since it's happening on 2 locations I don't think a faulty cable or SFP is causing this.
Any ideas from you guys?

Which spanning tree protocol is preferred PVST or rapid-PVST and why?
I have WS-C2960G-24TC-L and Cisco 3750G switches, I have option to configure PVST spanning tree or rapid-pvst. Please let me know which is better and why? also send me some document explaining both protocols in detail.

As Alex has noted, normally rapid-PVST should be preferred.
Depending on needs (and device support), MST might be better yet. -
Hello,
i would like to kindly ask for a help with following issue:
Basically we are migrating from the 10.3.0 to the 10.3.5 version. We are building the domain using the template in "silent mode". And when i try to create the domain with new weblogic 10.3.5 im getting some errors.
The command to run the creation of the domain is following:
${WL_HOME}/common/bin/config.sh -mode=silent -silent_script=${SILENT_SCRIPT} -log=${WLLOGFILE} >> ${LOGFILE} 2>&1
returnCode=$?
SILENT_SCRIPT contains following commands:
read template from "/local/wg372/BM/appl/config/NEW_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED.jar";
write domain to "/local/wg372/BM/appl/BmDomain";
set OverwriteDomain "true";
close template;
When i setup new env(solaris) with weblogic 10.3.5 im getting following error when the silent_script command (*write domain to "/local/wg372/BM/appl/BmDomain";*) is executed:
2011-07-18 16:53:00,427 INFO [runScript] com.oracle.cie.domain.script.ScriptExecutor - succeed: read template from "/local/wg372/BM/appl/config/NEW_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED.jar"

I tried to google for this issue, look into the weblogic documentation but with no luck.
So i would like to kindly ask, if anyone of you perhaps could give me a hint/advise with this problem.
Thanks in advance.Hi,
thanks for the reply but im not sure if we are talking about the same thing. What i need is to upgrade the weblogic "DOMAIN" not the weblogic installation itself.
Anyway,
after some googling and testing im again stucked with another issue:
1. First i have created the old doman (10.3.0)
2. Then i have tested the domain with the new weblogic version 10.3.5 - as it should be (and is) compatible within those 2 versions
---> worked fine
3. Then via offline WLST(of weblogic 10.3.5) i have managed to create new template with command writeTemplate(nameOfTemplate.jar)
4. But when i try to create the new domain with the new template via WLST(of weblogic 10.3.5) im again stucked (im able to read the template in wlst but not able to writeDomain ) - error:
wls:/offline> readTemplate('/home/wg372/tmp/new_template.jar')
wls:/offline/BmDomain>writeDomain('/home/wg372/tmp/new_domain')
Error: writeDomain() failed. Do dumpStack() to see details.

I tried to have a look around for the "The application location must have write permission." problem but again with no luck.
Furthemore when i try to do the same with old domain template, with old version of WLST (of weblogic 10.3.0), i have no problems with creating of the domain.
Any ideas?
Ill keep you updated :-) -
Removing Public Folders after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013
Recently we migrated from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We did not migrate Public Folders and are retiring them from Exchange altogether. I shut Exchange 2007 off for a couple of weeks to ensure 2013 functions properly and it does so we're
ready to decommission Exchange 2007. I was able to remove all the mailbox databases without a glitch. Using the EMC I click to remove the Public Folder database from Exchange 2007 and get the following message:
Error: The public folder database "server\storage group - Public Folders\ Public Folder Database" contains folder replicas. Before deleting the public folder database, remove the folders or move the replicas to another public folder database.
Any help appreciated.Hi Terry,
If you run the following command does it come back with any public folders?
Get-PublicFolderStatistics -Server "SERVERNAME" | fl
If nothing comes back you can follow this guide to manually remove the public folder database (at your own risk) http://haythamalex.wordpress.com/2011/11/24/how-to-force-exchange-server-public-folder-removal/
Cheers,
Jack
I get alot of output from that command.

ActiveSync stops working after migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013
We have started the migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We've followed best practices and everything is working great except ActiveSync. I've performed Exchange migrations in the past so this is nothing new for me. I've also been referring to
a great guide which has been a big help,
http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2013/migration-deployment/planning-and-migrating-small-organization-exchange-2007-2013-part1.html.
Once a user is migrated from Exchange 2007 to 2013, ActiveSync stops working properly. Email can be pulled to the device (Nokia Lumia 625 running Windows Phone 8) by performing a manual sync. But DirectPush is not working. The strange part is it's not affecting
everyone who's been migrated. Anyone who is still on Exchange 2007 is not affected.
At first I thought it was our wildcard certificate. 99% of our users are running Outlook 2013 on Windows 7 or higher but we do have a few terminal servers still running Outlook 2010. Outlook 2010 was giving us certificate errors. I realized it was the wildcard
certificate. Rather than making changes to the OutlookProvider I simply obtained a new SAN certificate. Although that resolved the issues for Outlook 2010 users, ActiveSync was still a problem.
Rebooting the phones and removing the email account from the user's device and re-adding it didn't resolve the issue either.
Then I performed an iisreset on the CAS server. This didn't help either. I didn't know it at the time, but I was getting closer...
I tried using the cmdlet Test-ActiveSyncConnectivity but it gave me the following error:
WARNING: Test user 'extest_0d9a45b025374' isn't accessible, so this cmdlet won't be able to test Client Access server
connectivity.
Could not find or sign in with user DOMAIN.com\extest_0d9a45b025374. If this task is being run without
credentials, sign in as a Domain Administrator, and then run Scripts\new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 to verify that
the user exists on Mailbox server EX02.DOMAIN.COM
I started reviewing how Exchange 2013 proxied information from the CAS to the mailbox server and realized the issue may in fact be on the mailbox server.
I performed an iisreset on the mailbox server and all of a sudden ActiveSync started working again. Awesome!
I can't explain why. The only thing I can assume is when some users were migrated from 2007 to 2013 something wasn't being triggered on the Exchange 2013 side. Resetting IIS resolved the issue. I guess I'll have to do an IIS reset after I perform a batch
of migrations. Disabling ActiveSync and re-enabling it for the affected users didn't help - only the IISRESET resolved the issue.
If anyone has any information as to why this happens, please chime in. Also, if anyone knows why I can't run the Test-ActiveSyncConnectivity cmdlet, I'd appreciate the help.
Thanks.Hi,
In Exchange 2013, the Public Folder is changed to Public Folder mailbox instead of Public Folder in Exchange 2007 database.
Due to the changes in how public folders are stored, legacy Exchange mailboxes are unable to access the public folder hierarchy on Exchange 2013 servers. However, user mailboxes on Exchange 2013 servers or Exchange Online can connect to legacy
public folders. Exchange 2013 public folders and legacy public folders can’t exist in your Exchange organization simultaneously. This effectively means that
there’s no coexistence between versions.
For this reason, it’s recommended that prior to migrating your public folders, you should
first migrate your all legacy mailboxes to Exchange 2013. For more information about migrating public folder from previous versions, please refer to:

Cross Forest Migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013
Hi
Could anybody advice me the steps also the pros and cons for below mentioned environment if we are going for the cross forest migration.
Source
Domain - test.local
Active Directory - Windows 2003
Exchange Server - 2007
Target
Domain - test.net
Active Directory - Windows 2012

How could I remove the source environment including the exchange servers. after the migration ?
Regards
MuraleeHi Oliver ,
Please suggest us.
In my environment we are in a plan to migrate from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 (cross forest migration).
Source : Exchange 2007 with sp3 ru 10
Target : Exchange 2013 with cu2 ( new environment yet to be created).
Trust : Forest trust in place (two way )
Domain and forest functional level : 2003 in both target and source
Migration Steps :
Step1 :
We are in a plan to execute 'preparemoverequest.ps1' first in the target forest ,so that we will get the disable MEU
in the target forest.
Step2:
Then we are going to use ADMT to migrate users SID'S and password .
Step3:
Then we are going to move the mailboxes with New-moverequest
Please have a look in to our steps and suggest us ,whether we are going to proceed the migration in a right way or not
.Is anything needs to be changed please intimate me .
Thanks
S.Nithyanandham
Hey there,
Sorry for taking a little while to get back to you, i've been busy working on Hosted Lync deployments!
Use ADMT first, then when using preparemoverequest.ps1 script using the -uselocalobject cmdlet. This will then tie it up to the ADMT migrated account.
