Using Trunking 1.3 to create a trunk accross two switches

Hi:
I have installed Solaris Trunking 1.3 on my SF 880 which is running Solaris 10. It has two CE interfaces which i have configured in one trunk. Failover works fine when I connect them to a single Nortel 8000 switch. The problem is that I can't get failover working properly when I connect one CE interface to a Nortel 8000 switch and the other CE interface to another Nortel 8000 switch. Should this work? I have seen many references, eg in the Solaris Trunking 1.3 documentation, that actually says you can't create a trunk accross switches but i also found BUG ID 5079123 which says you can.
By the way I can't use the version of trunking software that is bundled with Solaris 10 because it doesn't support the CE interfaces.
Cheers
Steve

Thanks for your reply. I should have mentioned that i don't need load balencing over the trunk to work. I just need failover to work. In fact that is just what the bug id says i should be able to do across two switches. Here's a copy of the bug id:
Bug ID: 5079123
Synopsis: Trunking 1.3 to support L2 failover across switches
Category: enet_trunking
Subcategory: softwareState: 10-Fix Delivered
Description: Due to overwhelming requests to support L2 failover solution for Sun NIC across two switches. This is not trunking or Link aggregation feature as it breaks the standard of all trunk members connect to one switch.
Requirements are :
1. provide Layer 2 failover similar to IPMP(layer 3) and yet be simple enough to configure.
2. No loadbalancing.
3. Connect across two switches. and when one switch/nic fails, the traffic moves seemlessly and instantly.
4. Failback: When the failed link is back online, traffic moves back to original link. Date Modified: 2004-09-08 06:13:32 GMT+00:00

  • Creating a trunk to Router Kills Connectivity

    Hi All,
    have set up 2 routers/2 switches. SW1(3500-192.168.168.2) connects to R1(2600-192.168.168.1) via network 192.168.168.0 and R1(192.168.169.2) connects to R2(2600-192.168.169.1) via network 192.168.169.0. SW2(3500-192.168.167.2) is connected to R2(192.168.167.1) via network 192.168.167.0. All were pingable and all were telnetable after adding ip host info. I have set SW2 as vtp client and SW1 as server and both are in the status vtp domain. I then created a trunk on fasteth0/12 on SW1 which has a straight cable running to fasteth0/1 on R1. After doing so, I can't ping R1 or ping SW1 from R1. What have I not done right..? Cheers.

  • Two switches, two trunks

    Hi all,
    I have a site which has two switches; a CE520 and a C2960.
    There are two trunks between the two switches.
    one trunk with a native vlan 100 at both ends (voice vlan)
    the other trunk has native vlan 1 on the ce520 and 100 on the 2960; this is generating vlan mismatch errors
    I wonder if whoever set it up envisaged having one trunk as native vlan 1 and the other as 100.  Would there be a benefit to this?  Is it entirely redundant having two trunks between just two switches?
    thanks
    justin

    Hi 
    Just my Point of view.
    Having different vlans is more of Vlan Hopping. Frankly, I did not see others using it.
    Do you see any allowed list of vlans on the trunk? Can you please check what vlans are forwarding on the trunk.
    By making a vlan as native,say if there is an untagged packet received it will be sent to that native vlan.
    Entirely Redundant?
    If clients are connected to this switch then no
    If both the switches have uplinks to say DS and provided they are configured properly for say L3 redundancy say HSRP, then  if one of your DS goes down they will be redundant.
    Thanks

  • Two switches connected with fiber in mode trunk - Problem

    Hi to all.
    Iam new in the forum, and my english is bad.
    I want to post a problem. I have two switches connected with fiber in mode trunk, in the switch C3550 i have this configuration:
    interface FastEthernet0/1
    description Enlace LAB Medicion
    switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
    switchport mode trunk
    no ip address
    duplex full
    spanning-tree portfast
    In the switch C2960 this configuration, on interfaces Fa0/48, Giga0/1:
    interface FastEthernet0/48
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,20,229
    switchport mode trunk
    spanning-tree portfast
    interface GigabitEthernet0/1
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,20,229
    switchport mode trunk
    media-type sfp
    duplex full
    spanning-tree portfast
    The problem:
    The ip phones with Voice vlan (vlan 20), not find the DHCP server located in the data vlan (vlan 229)
    However, using the command:
    #switchport trunk native vlan 229
    The result is the voice vlan works, but the data vlan not and viceversa depending if the native vlan 229 is present.
    I will appreciate any suggestion.

    leolaohoo.
    The configuration on ports switch C2960, have the mode access with voice vlan 20:
    interface FastEthernet0/1
    switchport access vlan 229
    switchport mode access
    switchport voice vlan 20
    spanning-tree portfast
    interface FastEthernet0/2
    switchport access vlan 229
    switchport mode access
    switchport voice vlan 20
    spanning-tree portfast
    I will remove from trunk links:
    spanning-tree portfast
    Thanks alot.

  • Use one IPS port to create tunnel to two remote MDS switches?

    is it possible to use one gigabit port on MDS IPS 14+2 linecard to create FCIP tunnels between two other remote MDS switches?
    each tunnel will  allow a different VSAN. this is kindda crude but gotta do it, if it can be done

    yes it can be done, make 1 FCIP profile defining the Ip address of the GE interface.  Then create 2 different FCIP interfaces ( tunnels )  each one will use the same profile, but have different peers.

  • Creating a view on two ODS using the most actual value of Timestamp

    Hi All,
    I am creating a view on two ODS. I have made an internal join of the field timestamp from both the tables. But the timestamp in bot ODS do not match, which is why there is no data visible in the view.
    There is a requirement that the value of timestamp to be used has to be the most actual value of timestamp from the two ODS.
    I would be grateful if some pointers regarding the same could be provided.
    Thanks and regards,
    Shruti Kulkarni

    Hi Shruti,
    ODS should not be linked on Timestamp basis, there must be some other alternatives like document number, date etc etc...
    In other case if its possible to include addtional key figure in to ODS then
    create a dummy key figure , in the aggregation tab page Select Exception aggregate as "Last Value" and in the "agg.ref char" Select time stamp as info object. This setting will make sure that in the ODS you have only last updated data.
    Hope that helps.
    Regards

I want to report it to Apple but dont know how to go about it. I want the Apple ID deleted. How do I go about that? Is there also a way to ensure that the email address wont be used again by this person to create another Apple ID?
    This is compounded actually by a Gmail issue. I have had this email address for ages, since the start of the beta. But lately in the last year or so, I am getting mail that seems to be intended for other people but it is using my email address. It is probably one of them who created the Apple ID.

  • Using SQL view object to create ADF table

    Hi,
    I have created a column called "Month" (which extracts month from the date column) and another column to count the no. of requests.
    i want to create an ADF table with 2 columns, a column showing the month and another is showing the no. of requests for that month.
    However, now I only managed to achieve the ADF table to show the overall total requests, which means if i add up all the requests for all the months and i get 500
    My ADF table shows this:
    Jan: 500
    Feb: 500
    Mar: 500
    How should I create the view or what should I do to make it such that the no. of request is based on the month?
    Please advice.
    Thanks (:

    Hi,
    For the given situation you can create a Query Based View Object with the following query
    SELECT
    COUNT(TEMP1.DT) REQUEST,
    TO_CHAR(TEMP1.DT, 'Mon') MONTH
    FROM
    TEMP1
    GROUP BY
    TO_CHAR(TEMP1.DT, 'Mon')
    where DT is the date column and temp1 is the name of the database table.
    Following are the steps that i followed to get this query :
    i have taken the following sample table :
    create table temp1
    (srno number primary key,
    dt date)
    *Note you may use any existing column instead of srno or use dt only (i took an extra column as u know we need a primary key /row id)
    the following is the sample data
    insert into temp1 values (1,sysdate);
    insert into temp1 values (2,sysdate);
    insert into temp1 values (3,add_months(sysdate,1));
    insert into temp1 values (4,add_months(sysdate,1));
    insert into temp1 values (5,add_months(sysdate,3));
    insert into temp1 values (6,add_months(sysdate,5));
    the table appears as follows
    SRNO DT
    1 22-JUN-12
    2 22-JUN-12
    3 22-JUL-12
    4 22-JUL-12
    5 22-SEP-12
    6 22-NOV-12
    To start with ADF View Object Creation (Using Jdeveloper 11.1.2):
    Create the view object using Create View Object wizard
    In Step 1. Name window
    set the value for Name : Viewab (you can use any of ur choice)
    In the data source section : select query
    In Step 2. Query window
    a. Click Query builder (it will pop up sql statment window)
    b. In the SQL Statement window
    in quick-pick objects section -> select temp1 table -> shuttle the columns from available list to selected list
    in select clause section -> select srno column from select list-> choose count() function from function drop down list -> insert function -> set alias to REQUEST-> click validate
    now select dt column from select list -> choose to_char() function -> click insert function -> alter the function to to_Char(temp1.DT,'Mon') -> set alias to Month -> click validate
    in the group by clause section -> Click the green symbol to add -> from the expression palette insert dt column -> insert the to_char function -> alter the function to to_char(temp1.DT,'Mon') -> click validate
    in the Entire SQL Query section -> click test query -> in the test query window -> click query result-> you will see the result -> click close -> click ok
    Click next
    Step 3: Bind Variables
    Click Next
    Step 4: Attribute Mappings
    click Finish
    So the view object is ready :)
