Weird Broadcast on uplink port

Hello everyone
I have noticed one weird thing on some of our switches. Lets say we have Switch A and Switch B and Switch C
Switch B and C are connected to Switch A.
I have configured storm control on uplink port on Switches B and C
I can see 1,2% broadcast on uplink ports of Switches B and C, but there is no broadcast % on these uplink ports on Switch A
How is this possible? If there is a broadcast on one end of an uplink port, it should be also on the other end, am I correct?
Moreover, I started removing VLANs from these uplink ports, removed all except my management VLAN but broadcast around 1,2-1,4% were still on the link.
I have checked all ports with storm control on Switches B and C - no broadcast %
I have also checked other switches connected to Switch A - no broadcast %
Can some explain to me, how can I narrow down this broadcast traffic?
Thank you

Hi,
Well, I gotta be honest with you, I had never heard the term but I would like to share something with you cause I saw that this is not the first time you have questions about VM-FEX.
These are the 2 modes I had heard before, I am not sure if you were trying to refer to one of those:
It comes from this great presentation from Ciscolive!:
http://www.alcatron.net/Cisco%20Live%202013%20Melbourne/Cisco%20Live%20Content/Data%20Centre%20And%20Virtualisation/BRKCOM-2003%20%20UCS%20Networking%20-%20Deep%20Dive%20including%20VM-FEX.pdf       it starts on page 58
It also covers Disjoint L2 briefly, which was part of your original question, in page 91.
Also, this book http://www.ciscopress.com/store/data-center-virtualization-fundamentals-understanding-9781587143243 from a great colleague covers a good amount of information about VM-FEX 
I hope this helps somehow with your question/doubts.

  • Input packet drops on uplink port-profile

    Hi,
    I'm using Nexus 1000v and vSphere 5.1;
    I just migrated some physical servers to VM, and I have some weird reporting issues;
    Just to make sure it wasn't a network issue they asked me to verify if anything was overlooked on the Nexus side of things;
    Everything checked out, but I'm seeing a lot of input packet drops on the physical ports of the system uplink port-profile;  I doubled checked the configs on the VSM and the Catalyst stack and all is configured properly;
    should I be concerned about these Input packet drops that I'm seeing on the VSM on the physical interfaces of my uplink port-profile?  If so, could it be the NICS in the ESX host that could be the issue?
    Any feed back would be appreciated;
    Thanks.

    I have the same symptomps on 3 different Nexus 1000v. All 3 run the same version  - 4.2(1)SV2(1.1) VMware is 5.0 sp1 and the hardware for ESXi hosts is more or less the same (At least server blade model and CNA).
    We have tried to use vempkt to capture traffic but no traffic is captured if we filter on drops even though the counter on the port-channel and member Ethernet interfaces increase. On the hosts we tried vempkt we see about 20 drops per second. Here is some info. I have removed some irrellevant stuff.

    In our case, could the input drops depend on that we allow vlans from the upstream hardware switch to the VEM that do not exist on the N1000v and that this is the reason we can not capture the dropped packets?
    Any ideas?
    PS: We see drops on uplinks on all VEMs       

  • Why the Fibre uplink ports are down state even after giving no shutdown command at the interface

    Hi
    My Predecessors brought 2 CISCO 3750 switches and implemented LACP on these core switches. Due to looping in the network the Fibre uplink ports GigabitEthernet1/1/3 and GigabitEthernet2/1/3 are down (I think these uplink ports are mirrored in the LACP concept)
    Please see below from the configuration.
    I logged into the core switch and went to this particular interface GigabitEthernet1/1/3 and I gave the following command and still the port is in the down state after I gave no shutdown command. Do I need to give the same no shutdown command at interface GigabitEthernet2/1/3 as well ?
    Switch-Core1(config) interface GigabitEthernet1/1/3
    Switch-Core1(config-if)#no shutdown
    Switch-Core1(config-if)#
    Please see below  After no shutdown command given still these 2 Gigabit fibre uplink ports are down.

    It is possible you are overloading that little 4215. If that is the case you should also be seeing "missed packet percentage" messages in your events.
    How much traffic is your 4215 getting? Those sensors will start to drop packets for inspection at about 30 Mb/s.

  • WRT54G v5 Uplink Port Not Designated

    Running out of ethernet ports, wanting to add a Fast Switch (SMCGS5), the back panel of this router doesn't designate which port is an uplink port, likewise the switch. Unless I went blind, my User Guide and the User Guide online for this model, has no mention of any uplink port designation, other than the 3rd paragraph of the online Product Description, for this model.
    I'm currently using one laptop, two PC's, and one NAS, and want to add one more wired PC. I'm noticing intermittent stalling or freezing after I installed the switch into Port 1. So I switched over to running to the switch from Port 4, noticed no difference in wired performance. Shutdown everything to be used on the network, including doing a reset all, no change in wired performance when the switch is used, otherwise, works fine with existing router/switch ports. 
    Took switch to friends house to install in their network. They have no problems with this switch.
    Would anyone be able to help me identify if the WRT54G v5 Router even has a uplink port? Or are "all" the ports, uplink ports? I've read the pre-posting information and have searched for similar question(s).

    You can still keep your linksys router...I would recommend you to upgrade the firmware on the router , then reset and re-configure it...
    Download the firmware from here ,
    Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device: -
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page.In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1
    Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
    Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
    Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful"  After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
    Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...
    Then, unplug the power cable while holding down the reset button for another 30 Seconds...
    Plug the power cable back in, and keep holding down the reset button for another 30 Seconds...
    Release the reset button...Now re-configure your router and connect it to your switch...I hope this works...

  • Best QOS Practice for a congested Uplink Port?

    I have an MPLS uplink port to a carrier that carries both voice and data.
    For example, Customer 3750 Switch 100MB Uplink--->100MB Uplink Carrier Router---Carrier Router 6MB MLPP Voice/Data MPLS Uplink with QOS configured for Voice subnet on carrier side too.
    The port occasionally suffers from overutilizition and spikes to the full 6MB
    I have a centralized CUCM that has phones that occasionally reset due to TCP 2000 timeouts (usually during the period of high utilization)
    So that I can avoid most phone resets during high utilization I have prioritized all voice traffic (signalling and RTP streams) to EF
    My question: What is best practice configuration for a congested uplink port? I'm going to assume the answer is it depends (the all great technical answer )
    Here are my thoughts on how to configure the 3750 uplink port so far:
    apply mls qos trust dscp
    apply priority-queue out
    (Here's where I'm looking for help)
    apply some sort of policing or bandwidth statement on the interface to protect the voice traffic: What are the recommendations and what would those configurations look like?
    I would apply these these configurations to the uplink ports at the edge site as well as the central site.
    Any thoughts as to the best way to accomplish this?

    You want to prioritize VoIP traffic at congestion points, which for you, looks to be whenever your LAN bandwidth hits your 6 Mbps WAN.
    If the carrier takes your 100 Mbps, and doesn't just generally police all traffic to 6 Mbps, but instead has different priority queues for the 6 Mbps, all you should need to do, is insure you traffic is correctly processed by your WAN vendor.  This, though, might require marking your traffic for the WAN provider.
    If you carrier first polices all your traffic at 6 Mbps (many do), then you need to shape the traffic (with you own prioritization) before the provider "sees" it.  If you need to "shape" on the 3750, there's a command to limit a port's bandwidth utilization, as a percentage.  However it's not exact, so you may need to "shape" slower than 6 Mbps to insure 6 Mbps won't be exceeded.  (BTW, for 6 Mbps, if you need to do QoS, you would be better off with an ISR.)
    You also mention 6 MLPPP, but it's unlclear what your device is for that.
    How to configure 3750 QoS is involved.  Basically when you enable QoS, each port has four dedicated egress queues.  By default, different traffic markings go into one of the four queues, each queue has same share of the bandwidth, and almost same share of the buffers.  The PQ command you noted, enables the first queue to always transmit its packets first.  Normally, you'll want to do that for VoIP bearer packets, which you've (insured are) directed to that queue.  You also want to insure that VoIP signally packets are not likley to be dropped and, more or less, are forwarded quickly.
    Cisco has multiple papers on QoS configurations, including papers for 3750s, so instead of my trying to present that, the above is intended as an overview.  Feel free to post additional questions, the more specific, the more likely you'll get an answer.

  • SR-IOV Uplink Port with NIC Teaming

    Hello,
    I'm trying to setup my uplink port profile and logical switch with NIC Teaming and SR-IOV support. In Hyper-V this was easy, just had to create the NIC Team (which I configured as Dynamic & LACP) then check the box on the virtual switch.
    I'm VMM it does not seem to like to enable NIC Teams with SR-IOV:
    Can anyone advise? I'm not using any virtual ports. I just want all my VMs to connect to the physical switch though the LACP NIC Team, something which I thought would be simple.
    I have a plan B - don't use Microsoft's NIC Teaming and instead use the Intel technology to present all the adapters as one to the host. I'd rather no do this.
    Thanks
    MrGoodBytes

    Hi Sir,
    "SR-IOV does have certain limitations. If you configure port access control lists (ACLs), extensions or policies in the virtual switch, SR-IOV is disabled because its traffic totally bypasses the switch.
    You can’t team two SR-IOV network cards in the host. You can, however, take two physical SR-IOV NICs in the host, create separate virtual switches and team two virtual network cards within a VM. "
    There is really a limitation when using NIC teaming :

  • Dashboard for only Monitoring uplink ports ~~~~~SCOM 2012 R2

    Hi Guys,
    I want to monitoring signal interface of switch like uplink port. And same i want create dashboard.
    Please help me out for creating dashboard for only signal uplink interface port.

    If you want to monitor the interface status on a switch, you'll have to build a custom monitor. (Unless you use supported devices e.g. Cisco Catalyst).
    Go to authoring > monitors. Under the class 'Node' you can make a new monitor. Choose for SNMP and follow the wizard.
    You'll need the OID to monitor. Usually you can find this OID in the MIB's (using a MIB browser) of your device.
    MIB's can be found on the vendor website.

  • SCVMM2012r2 UR3 : Even with no Virtual switch assigned, an uplink port profile remains

    Hi,
    What I'm tryng to do, is to unassign an uplink set on my host, set to the wrong NIC (actually, on 3 NIC, event if I specified 2 when I added the logical switch...).
    To proceed, I deleted the Logical Switch assigned in the host properties on Virtual Switches tab.
    On my host, the teaming has been deleted, but unfortunately, on one of my NIC, the subnet set in my Logical Network subsit in "Logical Network Connectivity" and is greyed out.
    It's said "The subnet an VLAN information is set by an uplink port profile set 'tVMNet' associated to this host an cannot be changed here".
    But, if I removed the virtual switch, how can it be?
    Thanks for any advice, I'm stuck

    Hi all,
    I did finaly remove the cluster from SCVMM and added it back, and it's working now. No more ghost config remaining.
    I'm working on SCVMM from 3 days now, and I'm really not sure that's the easy to use tool we need to manage our small private cloud... It's buggy, slow, oposite of ergonomic and far too much cloud provider oriented...

  • NCS wired MAC trace incorrectly puts MAC at uplink ports

    Greetings,
    I generally love the Cisco Prime NCS functionality which allows one to quickly trace a MAC address to a switch and port.  However, I'm having trouble with some MACs appearing at the uplink port of a closet switch rather than it's real access port on a different.  While it is true that this PC's MAC is in the CAM for that closet uplink port, it's there with hundreds of others.  It is also in the CAM for the port it is actually connected to, and in that case it's the ONLY MAC for that port, as expected.   Both switches are functioning within NCS, and in fact if I drill down into the switch it is connected to, the client detail shows this MAC connected to the proper port.  It's just the search trace that "incorrectly" shows it out at some uplink.   In fact, it moves around to different closet uplinks (per the MAC search history results).  It doesn't only happen with this MAC, either.   I kind of sold the customer on this functionality and it's a little embarrassing.
    1. Has anyone seen it and knows of a way to get it to show correctly and/or prevent this problem?
    2. What criteria does NCS use to determine where to place the item when the MAC appears in multiple places?  I would think it would at least pick a port that does not have other MAC addresses on it first, under the assumption that ports with multiple MACs are uplinks (I realize that there are cases where it COULD be on a multiple MAC port, such as an uplink to an unmonitored switch...not the case here).   I can tell you that in the cases I've noticed, the uplinks are not 802.1q, just access ports.
    Thanks!
    Gary

    Had the same issue here.  Here is the best solution I have found so far:
    Hotspot + Pepwave Max On-The-Go (w/ Load Balancing) + Airport Extreme
    I have a VZW MiFi, but I believe this set-up will work with other hotspot devices.  I actually have 2 MiFi Hotspots with a monthly allowance of 20G each.  They are plugged directly into the Pepwave router (aka, tethered).  (Note:  you have to have the right cable to do this.  The one that came with my Hotspot was only for charging.)  If, for some reason, you cannot tether with your Hotspot device, you want a router that offers WiFi as WAN.  The Pepwave will do this.  The Pepwave is connected to my Airport Extreme via ethernet cable.  I have the WiFi on the MiFis and the Pepwave turned off.  So the only visible network is my Airport Extreme.  The Pepwave is essentially just functioning as a modem.
    I used to have a Cradlepoint, but I did not find it very user friendly--too complex for home use.  The Pepwave Max OTG is awesome.  I got the one with Load Balancing so it allows you to connect up to 4 cellular devices.  If you only need the one Hotspot, you can just get the cheaper Pepwave Max OTG.  The Pepwave allows me to run off one of the MiFis until I hit my 20G/month allowance, then it automatically switches to the other one.  That way I never max-out on my monthly data allowance.  Additionally, it gives you a real-time, hourly, daily and monthly running tally on data usage.
    The guys at the 3Gstore are excellent and can help you figure out the best solution for your situation.

  • OS/X unresponsive while broadcasting to UDP port 2223

    At least once a week I have to power-cycle the iMac my kids use for their homework, because they cannot wait the few hours it takes to recover by itself.
    During that time all we get from the iMac is the rainbow wheel of death,
    and on the network I can see it is sending broadcasts to UDP port 2223 (rockwell-csp3). It also insists on sending NetBIOS name lookups - (despite nothing in the system preferences saying to use anything but DNS), installing a samba server on the network at least provides something to answer those lookups (but it shouldn't be necessary).
    I'm guessing that the Microsoft Office (2008) installed on the machine is somehow responsible - but a computer that is catatonic for hours at a time is useless.
    Anyone know of anything I can do to stop this, or something I can put on the network (other than a windows machine), that might make it happy?

    Is there a chance that someone has installed some kind of
    software on the computer that is trying to "call home?"
    The app known as Little Snitch can tell what may be in there
    and if it is responsible for these odd network calls out.
    How is the port security set up in the Mac? And why would
    those ports need to be open unless there was a real purpose?
    With my Macs, all of the ports in Firewall are closed to access
    except for the Network Time Server to keep the clock correct.
    {Some are used to share files between computers, & to chat; etc.}
    Do you have more than two user accounts in the computer, and
    if so, is your Admin account only used to update and maintain
    the OS X & to install apps for other users? The levels of security
    in Mac OS X can be controlled; and such odd port calls if or when
    there is no need, are signs that something is not quite right.
    Have you looked into the Console utility to see what is causing the
    hang at those time intervals you know this has happened? There
    are several different logs and reports in there; some won't apply.
    Do the children who use the computer, have access to or know the
    Admin account's password? A second user, from their account, can
    install software and do other things, if that password is available.
    I noticed you had a similar post last month that appeared to go without
    a reply; now it is locked and can't be replied to anyway. So this issue
    has been going on for some time. What may have happened in the past
    year or so, to start this issue in that computer? Something, for certain.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Catalyst 2960 uplink ports

    Hi,
    is there any difference between uplink ports (using 1Gbps SFP) and any another 10/100/1000 port on Catalyst 2960X ?  What I mean is: if uplink port has a 1Gbps SFP and considering that standard port are 10/100/1000, is there a reason, for example related to Catalyst internal hardware and bus architecture, that should make me connect a server to the uplink port instead to any another port ?
    Thank you a lot,
    enrico.

    Although you can purchase Copper SFP's, people generally use the SFP ports on a switch to connect fibre cables to which means they they get the full 12/24/48 ports for their hosts.
    Using one or more of the standard ports for uplinks means there are less for hosts but if you have spare and don't want the cost of running fibre and purchasing additional SFP's then use the normal ports.

  • My Network of Macs keep broadcasting to udp port 8612 every few seconds

    This problem was answered nicely by "Hunter3740" and Apple archieved it....It is still valid/needed for Mountain Lion!
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2464784?start=0&tstart=0
    Here is how to stop your Mac from broadcasting to udp port 8612 every few seconds without using a Terminal WIndow:
    Under Utilities (In Applicatiopn Folder) launch the Activity Monitor, then show "All Processes" and find the one named "CIJScannerRegister.app" and hit the Stop Sign (Quit Process).
    Then follow this Machintosh HD--->Library-->Image Capture--->Support--->LegacyDeviceDiscoveryHelpers---->then throw "CIJScannerRegister.app" in the trash and empty it.
    Bingo...the broadcast stops.
    Apple:  Can you fix this turd with a system update?

    except for the Network Time Server to keep the clock correct.
    {Some are used to share files between computers, & to chat; etc.}
    Do you have more than two user accounts in the computer, and
    if so, is your Admin account only used to update and maintain
    the OS X & to install apps for other users? The levels of security
    in Mac OS X can be controlled; and such odd port calls if or when
    there is no need, are signs that something is not quite right.
    Have you looked into the Console utility to see what is causing the
    hang at those time intervals you know this has happened? There
    are several different logs and reports in there; some won't apply.
    Do the children who use the computer, have access to or know the
    Admin account's password? A second user, from their account, can
    install software and do other things, if that password is available.
    I noticed you had a similar post last month that appeared to go without
    a reply; now it is locked and can't be replied to anyway. So this issue
    has been going on for some time. What may have happened in the past
    year or so, to start this issue in that computer? Something, for certain.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • 3560E Switches and 10G uplink ports

    Hi!
    Thinking of 3560E switches with 2 X2 10G uplinks, I was wondering if I can use, at the same time, 1 uplink port @ 10G and the other one @ 1G, with the proper CVR-X2-SFP converter and SFP modules.
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Martin.

    Believe if you use a TwinGig converter in one of the module slots, you can connect one or two gig SFP links to it while the other module slot is 10 gig.

  • 6800ia uplink ports DOM information

    Is there a way to get information on the optical transceivers on the uplink interfaces of the 6800ia switches.
    Since the uplink are used solely for the fex-fabric they aren't numbered interfaces so the command "show interfaces Te x/x/x transceiver" isn't available.
    The 6800ia are currently connected to a pair of 6880x in VSS which are located in 2 different location (roughly 3 KM of fiber in between them) and we want to make sure everything falls within the thresholds. Note that all the SFP modules are DOM enabled (SFP-10G-LR for our SM and SFP-10G-LRM for our MM) and we currently are running the latest Cisco suggested IOS (15.1(2)SY2).
    Thank you,

  • Vsan membership down on mapped FC uplink port

    Hi,
    since I updated Cisco UCS Manager, all Chassis and Fabric Interconnects to version 2.2(1), I get some minor faults.
    I configure ports 31 and 32 as FC uplink ports and mapped each port to a vsan:
    Port 31 = VSAN "blue"
    Port 32 = VSAN "red"
    (I know, this is not common to map two diffrent VSANs to the same fabric, but I have to )
    Since the update, I get minor faults:
    Port 31 --> FCoE or FC uplink is down on VSAN "red" / membership-down
    Port 32 --> FCoE or FC uplink is down on VSAN "blue" / membership-down
    I have no FC port channels or FC trunking mode activated. Fabric Interconnect is in EHM.
    Same in the other fabric.
    Can someone help me or is this the same cosmetic issue as discussed in the quote?
    FCoE Uplink vsan membership fault for any vsan not configured upstream Symptom:Fabric Vsan Membership Down fault message on FCoE uplink portsSeverity: MajorCode: F1083Name: Fabric Vsan Membership DownConditions:Observed with UCSM 2.1 and when FCoE uplink port is configured on the Fabric InterconnectWorkaround:None.Error message is cosmetic.
