Status of 10 GE port on redundant SUP V

Hi
I have to install many 4500 with 2 core 6500. 6500 is having 10 GE module while 4507R only have 10 GE on its 2 SUP(WS-X4516-10GE), now i have to run OSPF between these switches also.
I would be connecting 1 10GE port on active SUP on 4507R to 10GE module on 6500 and other 10GE port on standby SUP of 4507R to other 6500 10GE module.
My q. here is does 10GE ports remain active on a standby SUP also, as otherwise i would not be able to use port on standby SUP.
Regards

Hi,
When two Supervisor Engine V-10GEs are present in a Catalyst 4510R or Catalyst 4507R switch, one 10G uplink is active on the primary (active) and one on the secondary (standby) supervisor engine by default, or two uplinks will be active in a nonredundant configuration.

  • Disable snmp trap link-status only on access ports?

    Hello,
    I am searching for a way to disable the snmp trap link-status only on access ports.
    The problem is that we have a lot of new devices which have no port scheme, so I can't say that everytime the router uplink on a switch is on port X or Y.
    So I have to figure out where my uplinks to routers, accesspoints or other switches are and set all other ports to
    no snmp trap link-status
    no logging event link-status
    spanning-tree portfast
    Campus Manager knows the uplinks between the devices, but there is no way to perform such a change, right?
    The next problem is, that there is nothing configured on the ports, so I can't search for a string by using compliance check in RME.
    Is there any posibility to get the topology informations from CM together with the configuration feature from RME?
    Thanks a lot!
    Sven

    Hello,
    thanks for your reply.
    I thought of something like you wrote...
    There is a best practice report for disabling cdp on access ports.
    Creating this report for a switch and click on "fix" the CM will configure the command "no cdp enable" on every access port.
    So I will have a difference between uplinks and access ports.
    The problem with that solution is, that I can't fix all my switches with one job.
    And with >1000 switches it is not really possible to click every device.
    Any further advice?
    Thanks!

  • HSRP Vs redundant Sup

    Folks,
    We have 6500's at the edge, distribution and at the core. We only have a single sup in the switches. We are doing HSRP at the distribution and the core. My question is that are there in good documents on CCO that talk about the advantages of redundant sup over HSRP? How can i convince my mananagement that they should buy redundant Sup rather than depending on HSRP.

    Hello,
    basically at the edge you loose the service completely (or partially, if there are backup connections in place) if the switch goes down.
    In the end you have to decide, what is cheaper, a redundant sup or a violation of your SLA and angry customers potentially willing to change to another SP. This is no technical decision, but a financial or political one.
    In general HSRP and redundant sups are all backup solutions. To justify the cost for redundant sups you would have to calculate the downtime (HSRP timers and MAC learning, etc. vs. switchover time) and compare the loss arising from downtime. Also take into account application needs. F.e. voip calls will be terminated by the users if there is a couple of seconds silence.
    This might or might not be an argument for redundant sups.
    In my opinion only a business case can give a good argument to justify the redundancy options.
    To give an analogy: does everyone have a second car just in case the first breaks down? No, but there are backups, which usually are sufficient, like taking the bus. In case you are a taxi driver, things look different and you might need a "fast replacement contract" with your car dealer. In case you are Michael Schumacher and driving a Ferrari formula one car, the loss through an image damage for Ferrari justifies a second car (and an expensive one!).
    Hope this helps! Please rate all posts.

  • Installing redundant Sup IV enginge in Production 4507R

    Does anyone have experience installing a second(redundant) Sup IV module in a 4507R? Do you remember the steps?
    1. Install engine (Hot install or is it better to turn off switch)
    2. Configure Switch for redundant operations.
    3. Configure for auto-sync or manual sync enginge
    4. Is good for IOS versions to match?
    How long did it take to complete installation? How much downtime, if any?
    Answers to these question or a rough outline would be great

    a redundant sup can be installed into the 4507 hot-Swappable. the switch does not have to be powered down.
    depending on the configuration of your switching/routing environment, the steps can be quite a few.
    when both sups are installed and configured properly, they will synchronize automatically.
    IOS must match between sups for proper redundant configuration.
    see link below for more info:

  • Cisoc 4507R-E redundant sup card issue

    Hi All,
    I have cisco 4507R-E switch with sup6-E. I have recently upgraded IOS on same switch. After IOS upgradation, active and redundant sup card redundancy mode is RPR. I want SSO mode for redundancy. How can I do that?
    Please suggest.

    Hi,
    Have a look at this doc on how to make the sups redundant
    You need to have the same exact IOS and license in both sups.

  • 10g ports with redundancy

    Hi all. I hope this is the right section to post this kind of question.
    Basically I need to know which switch should I buy to achieve the customer's needs.
    Each floor will have 1 x 2960 with 2 10GB uplink to the core switch. The problem is I don't know which switch should I buy acting as a CORE. The customer needs at least 16 x 10G ports for each switch and the core must be redundant in some way. So the 3750 is not an option and I thought about the 4500-x with VSS but actually I'm not sure this is the best idea. Servers will be attached directly to the core switch (I know, this is not the best idea but this is what the customer want to do).
    Thanks for you replies / help

    Yes, VSS with the 4500-X is one possibility, as would be the new 6880.
    Or, instead of VSS, you could use a 4500, 6500 or 6807 with dual sups and dual line cards.
    With VSS, your single point of failure is the IOS.  With the (redundant card) chassis, your single point of failure is the chassis, itself.  There's not much of a difference in MTBF.
    Any of the above (or Nexus) would likely work well for you.  Selection depends on your budget and feature requirements.

  • Outbound IDoc Error: Status Code 37  'Sender Port' is invalid

    Hi
    I have an Error when the Outbound IDoc is triggered.
    It shows that 'Sender Port in Control Record is invalid'.
    Status Code: 37.
    I know that there are some issues with the Sender Port Definition.
    Please help me out to solve this problem using some checkpoints at each and every step.
    Reward Points Assured.
    Regards,
    Baburaj

    Hi Baburaj Manickam
    Good
    Follow this simple procedure
    1) Send an outbound IDOC data(MATMAS) to a flat file on client1(SENDER).
    -  Create File Port (WE21) for outbound file.
    -  Maintain Distribution Model (BD64) for sender ->receiver system.
    -  Create Partner Profile (WE20) for logical system.
    -  You can use this program RBDSEMAT (t/code BD10) to generate IDoc MATMAS file(s). 
    _  Then you can FTP the file(s) to receiver system.
    2) Upload the flat file as an IDOC on the inbound sytem
    which is Client2(RECIEVER).
    -  Create File Port (WE21) for inbound file.
    -  Maintain Distribution Model (BD64) for receiver -> sender system.
    -  Create Partner Profile (WE20) for logical system.
    -  You can use this program RSEINB00 to upload IDoc MATMAS file(s). 
    INBOUND IDOC PROCESSING:
    Firstly attach your idoc to a process code.
    In the process cod you can tell the system that the specified program should be triggered whenever an idoc of that type comes to the system.
    Then you want to have a Z-function module for your idoc processing, if I understand correctly.The steps should be:
    1. Create a z function module for idoc inbound posting (copy from a function module idoc_input_*).
    2. Set Function Modules as Inbound: - Transaction BD51
    3. Assign Function Modules to Logical Messages and Idoc types:- Transaction WE57
    4. Create process codes : Transaction WE42, and link the z-function module.
    5. Create partner profile: transaction WE20 and attach the message type and process code.
    6. In the Z- function module, extract data from the idoc segments, do whatever processing you want to do, and then call BAPI_CREATE_SALES_ORDER_FROMDAT2.
    Try the Trasaction WE19 for testing your inbound and outbound IDOCs
    Good Luck and Reward me for the same
    Thanks

  • Question on 4510E+R with Sup7E, redundant sups, both IOS and ROMMON upgrade

    I found the procedure for a non-disruptive IOS upgrade for a dual-Sup7E 4510E+R using the...
    redundancy reload peer
    redundancy force-switchover
    .....commands to maintain switch availability during IOS upgrades.
    Can I use the same procedure for a ROMMON upgrade? I will not have console access and must do it remotely.
    This is what I have:
    Current ROM: 15.0(1r)SG5
    Current IOS: bootflash:cat4500e-universalk9.SPA.03.03.02.SG.151-1.SG2.bin
    This is where I want to go:
    New ROMMON: cat4500-e-ios-promupgrade-150-1r-SG11
    New IOS: cat4500e-universalk9.SPA.03.04.05.SG.151-2.SG5.bin
    config-register is currently 0x2102
    Current bootvar:
    boot system flash bootflash:cat4500e-universalk9.SPA.03.03.02.SG.151-1.SG2.bin
    Questions:
    1) Can I upgrade the ROMMON first, then IOS?
    2) If #1 is true, is there any problems with a temporary scenario where each Sup is running a different ROMMON version?
    Proposed proceedure:
    3a) Upgrade ROMMON on standby Sup
    3b) switchover to make the standby active
    3c) Upgrade ROMMON on the original active Sup
    3d) Upgrade IOS on the original active Sup
    3e) switchover to make the original Sup active
    3f) Upgrade IOS on the original standby Sup.
    Thanks for any feedback.

    Hi Eric,
    There are 2 ways to upgrade:
    1-Load the IOS version you want to both Sups, change the boot variable, so the switch can load the new IOS after the reboot and finally reboot the chassis.
    2-Use ISSU  see link:
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-4500-series-switches/prod_white_paper0900aecd806f0663.html
    As for the ROMMON, you usually don't need to upgrade it often and you can always do that later if you need to.  I think, some of the newer versions of IOS upgrade the ROMOM as well as the main image but I am not sure exactly for what platforms.

  • Ethernet Port Status 'No Link' ?

    I get this status on the ethernet port(on the summary stauts page an AP350)' No Link'
    1. I can connect to the device via ethernet.
    ( since its root Ap and not reapeater mode)
    2. I have tried replacing diff ver. of code.
    3. The help menu does not lists 'No Link' as a possible state. It only has Down, Up, Error.
    Does any one know whats going on ?
    I have constant messages Started drivers for port fe0 and Stopped drivers for port fe0.
    The port on the switch is alright. The clients connects to the AP and surf internet.
    Ping show connection intermitent.
    Is the AP gone bad ?

    Have you tried altering the speed/duplex setting on the AP? It could be having a spot of bother trying to auto-negotiate with whatever it is plugged into...
    Try nailing it down to 10BaseT/Half Duplex or something, see if that helps at all. (From the 'home' page, click the 'ethernet' link, and then 'set properties' - there should be a dropdown box there where you can select alternative settings) And if you can, configure the port on the device at the other end to the same settings (might be difficult if you are plugged into a hub and not a switch).
    Hope That Helps

  • Monitoring TCP port status

    I would like to know if a tcp port is open or not. How can i do it ?

    Hello IDS,
    Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
    I have created an example VI that expands on Stijn's response. The TCP listen will return IP and port information if the selected port is open. If it is not, the VI will time out and send an error. By putting the TCP Listen VI in a while loop and monitoring the error status, you can monitor the status of the TCP port.
    You can adjust the timeout according to your needs.
    I hope this helps,

  • Firewire port status check

    How can I check the status of my firewire ports? I recently purchased and added an external hard drive (SimpleDrive 250 GB) mainly for downloading & burning videos...but ever since I installed the thing, suddenly iDVD, iMovie & even iChat do not detect my camcorders nor iSight cameras any longer. Does iMac have a firewire port status operation that I can run to see if my firewire ports are defective? Or...what do you recommend I do now?

    It makes a difference if you have a new iMac Intel, an iMac G5, or something else.
    If you have posted on the proper board for your machine, then check out this iMac Intel firewire thread (there have been others, as well):

    You can also run the Apple Hardware Test (AHT) that came on the grey labeled Install Discs with your machine. Insert the disc and check out the Read Me.

  • 6509E VSS w/Quad-Sup 720 - Traffic Forwarding Issue

    Hello all,
    I ran into an interesting problem yesterday evening while performing a quad-sup upgrade to an existing dual-sup 6509E VSS architecture. Unfortunately, the expiration of my maintenance window forced me to roll back the changes before I had the opportunity to truly discover the root issue, however, I wanted to post my experience on Support Forums with the hope that someone else has run into it before.
    The customer I was working with has an existing dual-sup (720) environment operating in VSS mode. Both sup's were installed an operational in slot 5 of each chassis. The switch ID's had been assigned as 1 and 2, and the VSL was comprised of the two 10GE interfaces connected between each of the sup modules (1/5/4-2/5/4 and 1/5/5-2/5/5). The customer wanted to increase their intra-chassis redundancy by installing two additional sup 720 modules in slot 6 of each chassis, and adding these 10GE interfaces to the VSL.
    The overall upgrade went very well. I began by physically installing an additional sup 720 in slot 6 of the VSS standby chassis, and the sup module came up into RPR-Warm status (which is the desired state). I then physically installed an additional sup 720 in the VSS active chassis, and it too came up into RPR-Warm status. After reviewing the VSS redundancy state, I determined that everything looked good, and proceeded to add the additional 10GE links (1/6/4-2/6/4 and 1/6/5-2/6/5) into the VSL configuration. I then physically connected the additional VSL links (but shifted them around as to achieve diversity between the chassis (1/5/4-2/5/4, 1/5/5-2/6/5, 1/6/4-2/6/4, 1/6/5-2/5/5). I then reviewed the VSL link state and EtherChannel state, and everything looked great.
    At that point, we were pretty much done with the switch configuration, and proceeded to verify that server/network resources were not affected. I found that there seemed to be an issue sending traffic across the VSL. For example, some physical servers connected to switch ID 1 were having a difficult time communicating to physical servers connected to switch ID 2 (this customer is still working on dual-homing hosts). I looked at all of the obvious things - physical VSL interfaces, EtherChannel status, etc., and everything looked good. I then proceeded to remove physical VSL interfaces from the configuration, eliminating those that were added that evening (e.g., all interfaces except the original 1/5/4-2/5/4 were removed) - nothing. At this point, I was 10 minutes from the expiration of the maintenance window and was forced to roll back. It wasn't until the newly added sup's were physically removed from the chassis that the issue subsided. That said, I was able to conclude that the VSL wasn't the problem at all, but perhaps the installation of the sup's was??
    All of the sup 720's were running 12.2(33)SXI6 code, which I had verified to be a safe harbor version (although there are known bugs, none appear to be related to this issue).
    Has anyone run into this issue before? Any thoughts would be appreciated!

    You bring up VSS outside of the current environemnt. Create all vlans with a spanning tree priority higher than the existing.
    Create all the vlan interfaces and leave them shutdown.
    Connect the existing core to the new VSS core. Make sure that all vlans are properly crossing the trunk between old and new cores. Depending on how you're routing is set up, you might need to create a vlan to use for routing updates only.
    At this point, you can start changing spanning tree priorities to move the root of the vlans to the vss. Once these have been moved, you can start to manipulate hsrp.
    Whichever switch has the backup interface, shut those interfaces down. After this is done, shut the vlan inteface on the old core and no shut on the vss. Since vss doesn't use hsrp, it's hard to manipulate the vss since you want the vlan interface to be the previous standby ip.
    Flipping the vlan intefaces shouldn't cause any issues. I've done this method several times in large hospitals with no issues.
    Once you have the vss running, you can move the access switches 1 link at a time. Make sure you're running rapid pvst.
    The method I've used for this is to create a port channel on both the access switch and the vss. On the vss, you can assign the interfaces into the port channel immediately. On the access switch, disconnect one of the interfaces that goes to the old core. Add the disconnected inteface into the port channel then plug it back in. It should come up as the only member of the etherchannel. After you verify this link is up properly, perform the same with the second uplink on the access switch. When you plug it in, it should join the channel and you should be fine. With rapid pvst, nothing should be noticeable when the links block and unblock.

  • Cat6500 + SUP-2T & MPLS Features

    Hello all,
    I have done quite a bit of research on the Catalyst 6500 and the SUP-2T. Historically the 7600/6500 series has had support issues and stringent requirements on certain hardware modules in order to support L2VPN/L3VPN (ES+ Card, SIP cards etc). Essentially this kept the Cat6500 as more of an enterprise switch.
    With the release of the SUP-2T though, the box has been brought up to scale. We now have support for 1 million+ routes and supposedly support across the board for MPLS features regardless of line card type. With this being said, what we would like to do is move towards the 6500+SUP-2T as an aggregation-access box for our fiber customers. We have a need to support full VPLS featureset on 100meg fiber customer facing interfaces. We have accomplished this in the past by using ME3600s but would like to get to something a bit more scalable. Thoughts are to use a redundant SUP-2T Cat6500 with WS-X6148-FE-SFP cards. My concerns are the following:
    1. Will all MPLS features really be available on this card? Looking to attach these ports as part of L2VPN VPLS and to perform port-based and VLAN-based xconnects (EVC/EFP configurations).
    2. For those that have experience with both Cat6500 and ME3600/3800, are these two comparable from a configuration standpoint? We would be migrating from daisy chained ME3800s to this chassis if we went with it. I want to make sure that the configuration migration would be very straightforward and future provisioning would be similar to that of ME series switches.

    Hi Alessio,
    The underlying design will be a traditional Access - Distribution - Core - Distribution - Access model. With a hierarchical OSPF backbone design, i.e. area 0 for Core and backbone links, with the distribution switches configured as ASBRs. We are then planning to configure an iBGP overlay on this, and then MPLS VPN using MP-BGP to provide network segregation. This is something I have done before on a Catalyst / Nexus backbone and works well, I have just never used VSS to accomplish this. So I just wanted to understand if there are any best practice recommendations for VSS which may not be in the path isolation design doc.
    For example, in a traditional non VSS deployment, load balancing is typical configured by configuring different RD's across a pair of PEs with the same RT which route a common subnet. Different VPNv4 prefixes are then advertised to the Core / P nodes for the same IPv4 subnets. In a VSS deployment, this isn't possible, because obviously there is only a single control plane, so load balancing is achieved by the hash algorythm used on the Layer 3 port channels connecting the PE to the Core - are there any other considerations such as this which I need to be aware of ?
    I hope this helps explain the design a little better.
    Chris.
