Network Assistant

I'm looking to download network assistant 5.0 but not able to find the download link, and is network assistant still a free download and if so do you have the download link. thanks for any help on this.

Yes, Cisco Network Assistant is still free. You will need to register for a guest CCO account before you can download it though. You can register for a CCO login at http://tools.cisco.com/RPF/register/register.do.
Follow the "Lastest Cisco Network Assistant" link at http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl?topic=279230132
You will be asked to authenticate with the CCO username and password you registered for. Once you have authenticated and see the Downloads page click LAN Network Management > Cisco Network Assistant > Cisco Network Assistant Version 5.0 > 5.1.

Captive Network Assistant checks 249 different airport, hotel and other misc WiFi hotspots adding a good 3 minutes to my startup time.

Hey there,
During startup of my MacBook Pro, Captive Network Assistant checks 249 different airport, hotel and other misc. WiFi hotspots. Proabaly adding a good 3 minutes to my startup time. ***? This all started while I was on extended layover at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.
I thought Captive Network Assistant was an iOS thing. No iOS devices in my home or office. Here's a portion of the console log during startup.

Looking at the times, I see this only takes a fraction of a second but my startup time is still much much longer than it ever was or should.
Does anyone have any idea on how to get rid of this? I deleted the Captive Network Assistant.app from my computer but the checking continues. It seems to be a rarely mentioned issue doing a web search, and nothing like this, although it's referred to in certain articles.
Really weird.
Gregg

I'd take another look at your startup log.
If you look closely, you'll see that all those log messages occurred in the space of 30 milliseconds - by comparison, a human blink takes about 150 milliseconds.
So while I don't doubt you're seeing slow startup time, I don't think CaptiveNetworkSupport is the culprit, per se.
Fortunately, since every startup event is timestamped, it should be easy enough to determine what task is taking the most time.
As for CNS, it's not just an iOS thing - it's standard in Mac OS X, too. I'm also under the impression (but can't confirm) that it only checks the networks that you've previously connected to, so check System Preferences -> Network -> AirPort -> Advanced -> WiFi and delete any networks you no longer use or expect to connect to.

Cisco Network Assistant, unable to add a switch

I have a network running some 20 switches, two controllers and many AP's. All the devices that should be able to connect to cisco network assistant can successfully. However there is one switch that will show in neighbours but will give the message of “unable to connect to device” when I try and add it to the topology.
As far as I can see the config is identically to all other similar switches in the network. I can telnet from a switch (management VLAN) to the switch in question. However when I try to ping or telnet from the PC running network assistant (different subnet) I am unsuccessful. However I can ping/telnet to all other cisco device from this PC.
The switch is a WS-C3560-48TS and I have included the config for firstly the switch in question and another switch of the same model and config that works correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

The switch configurations look pretty straightforward and mostly correct.
I notice that the problem switch has "ip routing" global command. Why is that necessary? You are only using it as a L2 switch, yes? If you use "ip routing" and have no routing process (ospf, eigrp, etc.) running you would need to add a static default route (ip route 0.0.0.0 etc.) and not use the "ip default-gateway" command. Otherwise the switch itself (the SVI) does not know how to leave the management VLAN routing-wise since it is the only L3 interface defined.
(I might also add "ip http authentication local" on each and I'd definitely disable telnet in favor of ssh)

Hi, I am having problems with the network assistant not showing the front panel view's correctly when connecting to our stack of 3850's. As can be seen in the attached image of 3 switches they show that identical ports are enabled on each one. Switch number 3 should actually be all grey as no devices are connected to this new member. The Network Assistant Version is 6.1, Is there a way of fixing this?
Thanks
Phil

Hi Miguel,
It is possible to programmatically set or change the position of front panel objects. (for example: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/4D0DA06B43195B3F862572F3000AF2D3?OpenDocument) However, if you haven’t intentionally done that, it seems unlikely that it is the problem.
Have you tried copying the entire block diagram in to a new VI to see if the problem persists? While it is unlikely, you are right that it is possible for VIs to become corrupted. I’ve never heard of a situation like this except in the situation where the settings Tom had you check have been changed. Here is some information about those settings:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/7567EF257B9CFDF986256F630073228F?OpenDocument
Since there was no rearrangement when you copied the front panel to a new VI, you might try copying the block diagram a little bit at a time to see if there is some particular part of it that creates the problem somehow.

Software Cisco Network Assistant for Switch SMB?

Is there any management software as the Cisco Network Assistant for smb switch as SLM224G or SRW224G4-K9-NA, or only works with models 2960 and higher?

The SX300 series switch will work with CCA. But it does not work with CNA.

Can't create VLAN's with Cisco Network Assistant

Hello everyone
I have a problem with my newest Switch, a WS-C2960X-48TS-L
Normaly I can programm all my Switches with Cisco Network Assistant. But now I have a problem with creating VLAN's. I can create them, safe them but after a refresh, all the new VLAN's are gone!
I updated the CNA to the newest Build 6.0 and updated the Switch to 15.2(2)E, but nothing helps!
Over the CLI I can do everything, but this is not a option for me! To programm sometimes a switch CNA is perfect for me! If it works!!
Thanks
Tobi

yes I can programm the vlan's over CLI. That's works. I have not tested this if its really works, but the VLAN's are programmed.
hmm I checked the STP / VTP settings with a second identical Switch, but there are no differents. Made a backup of one Switch and restore on the other One, but I'm still not able to create VLAN's.
however, I contacted my vendor today, he tell me that it shouldt be a problem to take back the switch.
Best regards
Tobi

Network Assistant V6.1 incorrect port statistics

Hello All,
I have recently upgraded my Cisco Network Assistant to Version 6.1. It's showing that I have undersized packets on 1 port, this is between a Catalyst 2960 PoE-24 and a SLM2005. However, when I log directly into both switches, they are not showing any undersized traffic. Any ideas?
Thanks for the assist.

Make sure that you've VTP domain setup in the primary switch so all VLANs will be populated to all trunked switches, then setup a SVI management interface in the secondary switch. Using NA, connect to the secondary switch SVI management interface, go to Switch, select the desired port and modify it to use the right VLAN

ESW-520-24-K9 and Cisco Network Assistant

HI,
Is this switch model ESW-520-24-K9 is supported by Cisco Network Assistant.
In the leatest release notes of CNA are supported Catalyst Express 520 Series Switches and this model WS-CE520-24TT-K9 is on the supported list.
But the mention model above is EoL and the new one is ESW-520-24-K9.
Thanks,
Kamil

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your replay.
Yes, you are right that this switch model is supported by CCA but not by Cisco Network Assistant.
These programs are different in functionality.
The situation has become clearer, since the customer bought the Cisco Catalyst 2960 series switch.

Wrong Port Statistics in Cisco Network Assistant

Hello,
I'm having some troubles with CNA (version 6.0). There's a few switches in the network that displays wrong information about sports activities/statistics. I've got some ports administratively down, without activity, however CNA is showing Tx and Rx rates, etc. I've already cleared counters from the application and from CLI too. If I do "show interface Gix/x/x" in the CLI, it returns results that I waited, but not in CNA, where it's showing wrong information. Moreover, some ports which should have activity and statistics, don't displays info. All rates and statistics shows 0 when I'd must see any number except 0.
I'm talking about a stack with 3 Catalyst 3750-X 48P.

In Cisco Network Assistant, under smart ports, if I configure the switch port as Cisco Wireless/Router, it hard codes the interface as Trunk.In this particular case what is the reason for hard coding it as trunk?
When you are dealing with autonomous wireless access point, it's very common to have mutiple VLANs configured in the WAP, therefore you need a Trunk switch port.
You can also configure the trunk port to allow VLANs of your choice.

What Router are you attempting to connect to? Wired or wireless?

Cisco Network Assistant Will Not Connect to 3825 Router Using http

Trying to use the CNA to connect to my 3825 router, in preparation for 2960x switches we are going to purchase. I cannot connect using http - read/write. It seems as though the username and password fail. I can however, connect Read – only Level 1, and the username and password work fine and I am logged in. Is there something I can check in the Router configuration for the Network Assistant to work?
Thanks

It will be helpful for other community members to know the solution and cause, if can be shared.
-Thanks

Cisco Network Assistant 6.1 Topology

Greetings, I am using CNA to visually map my infrastructure. However, when CNA discovers a device, it sometimes places it outside of the viewable area. I have tried various ways for the device to show up within the screen so I can move it to a spot in the map. Ideas please.
thank you

The latest release notes still indicate this is an issue for ssh:
Cisco IOS Notes
•Network Assistant fails when a device is running the cryptographic software image and the vty lines have been configured with the transport input ssh and line vty 0 15 global configuration commands only use SSH.
The workaround is to use the transport input ssh telnet and line vty 0 15 global configuration commands to allow SSH and Telnet access through the vty lines. After you upgrade to Cisco IOS 12.2(25)SE or higher, you can enable http or https separately from Telnet. (CSCdz01037)

Network Assistant Level_15_access authorization problem.

I am having the same type of problems as described in Level_15_access. At the end of Level_15_access instructions were listed but no response.
I can telnet in, I can use Hyperterminal and log into the switch.
The only thing I did different from instructions in Level_15_access was not use secret so I could see what was in the show run.
In my show run I see
Username (Switch username) privilege 15 password 0 (switch password).
However putting the switch username and switch password into the network assistant authentication: device only brings back the authentication: device window again.
I also see interface Vlan1
ip address 192.168.1.251 255.255.255.0 in show run and see the 192.168.1.251 in the authentication: device window.
I did just download the latest network assistant 5.8 and have the same results with version 5.5. I am using Windows 7 computers.

The private default IP address of the router is 192.168.1.1.
198.162.1.1 is a public IP address and some web server of someone else.
