In the vein of the OS X, Windows, and Linux "short questions" threads I've caught myself thinking on several occasions "I'd love to ask this stupid little 6500 config question but its not worth a whole thread". So after bouncing it off jwh and Dr. Fred here it is, the "Cisco Short/Stupid Questions Thread." Guidelines:

The Doco site is also pretty handy to keep bookmarked (and is about the only thing you have access to for reference in your CCIE lab exam) -- http://www.cisco.com/univercd/ It's a pain to navigate, but all the content is there (provided you know where to look) and it doesn't require a login.

I create RMAs for faulty Cisco equipment. If you think your hardware has failed, try these troubleshooting steps to confirm it. • Reseat/Reset/Power cycle - physically pull the part out and put it back in or power on and off. Certain errors (coil for instance) will disappear after this. • Move the faulty part to a different slot or chassis - if the part comes up, obviously the problem lies elsewhere. • Check your IOS - sometimes is just this simple, make sure the IOS supports the product and upgrade if necessary. • Use a spare - not everyone has them, but they can save your rear end and is pretty much the end all of troubleshooting. If the spare comes up then obviously there is a problem with the part that was replaced. • Orange/Amber and Red LEDs = failure. When you open a case with Cisco for a RMA, if you want fast results incude this information, because we're going to ask you for it anyways. • Serial number(s) - for entitlement. Usually 11 characters long and starts with three letters. Some are numeric (Pixes usually start with an 8 or a 4). • Part/model number (if you know it) - we can get part numbers from the serial number, or possibly (though not always) from a description of the part, but these aren't always correct. If you provide the part number then it eliminates the guessing and possibility of error. • Description of the problem. This does not mean "Hardware Failure", "Part has failed", "Need RMA", etc. Include the symptoms and the troubleshooting you've performed. If you have orange/amber or red LEDs, include this fact. • If you have error messages or diagnostics that blatantly states "Part has failed", capture the text and include it in the case. Not absolutely necessary, but it seals the deal. • Where you want the replacement shipped and a site contact with phone number Hope this helps

I "inherited" a bunch of great Cisco equipment (two 3560's, two 3550's) through contracts that were cancelled, so what are my options for upgrading the IOS on these and getting real Cisco support? I'm guessing I have to pay for something now? edit: Also, I have four 1600 routers but have absolutely no use for them. Are they worth anything or should I just chuck them in the dumpster?

I'm guessing I have to pay for something now? Switch images tend to be fairly robust, compared to the router images. I wouldn't worry with upgrading unless you're missing specific features, or are running into problems. In the case of the 3560's, those are very new, and probably have a reasonably current image anyhow. They're also very nice switches. The only thing you might want to check is whether you have the Standard Multilayer Image (SMI) or Enhanced Multilayer Image (EMI). There's layer-3 stuff in the EMI that isn't in the SMI. If you do want to get them under maintenance, you'll have to buy a smartnet contract, which is going to be more money than you'll want to spend, more than likely. 1600's aren't worth very much, sadly.

I'm looking at a 2960G as the "backbone" for an iScsi HA cluster. What sort of configuration considerations should I have as far as VLANs go? Also, should I keep it isolated from the rest of the network, just have it connect via uplink, or have other non clustered servers on the switch as well? I'm worried about bandwidth issues on the switch. http://www.cdwg.com/shop/products/default.aspx?EDC=850884

That's a hell of a lot of money to pay to get IOS updates, so unless you need to get IOS to bug fix, I wouldn't even bother.

I'm worried about bandwidth issues on the switch. All of the 2960G family has a 32 gbps switching fabric, while the non "G" has 16. • 16 Gbps switching fabric (Catalyst 2960-8TC, Catalyst 2960-24TT, Catalyst 2960-24TC, Catalyst 2960-48TT, Catalyst 2960-48TC) • 32 Gbps switching fabric (Catalyst 2960G-8TC, Catalyst 2960G-24TC, Catalyst 2960G-48TC) Doesn't look like the 2960 family can switch layer-3, although I could be looking at it wrong. Here's a datasheet: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6406/products_data_sheet0900aecd80322c0c.html Daddyo posted:I've got a pretty new 3570 that's just decided to reboot itself on a random basis.

That's usually the first place I go, when something is rebooting, ie., power-on versus bus error. Do you have a service contract on the device?

InferiorWang posted:Does that mean I'm going to have issues VLANing with QoS? If the 2960G doesn't do layer-3 switching, it means that you can't switch between VLANs on the 2960G. In other words, no inter-vlan routing (layer-3 switching) on the platform. You can carry multiple VLANs just fine, but they'll need to terminate elsewhere (ie., somewhere else you have 'int vlan5, ip address 1.2.3.4'). As for QoS, the 2960 has what appears to be pretty fancy stuff, like four hardware queues per-port, your usual policing controls, and dscp manipulation. Like I said, I don't have a 2960 here to poke at, but it doesn't look like it's a layer-3 switch, based on the data sheet.

I don't think I'll be doing any VLAN switching. The only QoS stuff I'm worried about is the cluster heart beat, and the cluster won't span past the device anyway. Thanks for the heads up though jwh.

Welp if you are talking about 802.1q QoS when you mention "VLAN QoS" then yes, those bits are turned on/off (CoS= Class of Service) in a layer 2 802.1q frame header I believe. Somewhere there if it's not the header, been a long time since I read about it. 5 bits total to turn on and off abouts. You can just set a manual CoS on all traffic coming in on a switchport or start just picking out traffic by trusting the bit(s) as it as set by the endpoint device. There's a few options to play with. Edit: Here's the simple config example you would slap on a switchport interface: code:Herv fucked around with this message at 21:52 on Apr 16, 2007 |

I'm curious what kind of failure rates people are seeing with Cisco CF cards and ISR motherboards. We just lost another field 1841 today to a bad 64Mb CF card, bringing our twelve-month total up to four. And last week, we burned out two WIC-2MFT-T1's to a posessed HWIC slot in a 2811. On the whole, our failure rates are still well below 5% of our deployed base, but I get clammy hands when thinking about how new our field routers are (130 or so ISRs), and what might be coming down the road.

How do I add two more outside ip addresses, or since I have the masking down it should know? The IP Nat Inside Source command allows you to forward to an IP of an external interface, or to an other IP address. Let's say the host you're setting up is 192.168.192.51 and the IP address you want to use from the pool is 200.1.1.45 use these commands: ip nat inside source static tcp 192.168.192.51 80 200.1.1.45 80 extendable ip nat inside source static tcp 192.168.192.51 443 200.1.1.45 443 extendable that should allow you to "extend" a port forward to another external IP address

I have a piece of stupid software that uses the built-in windows XP FTP shell to connect to an outside server. This means no passive ftp, as XP's shell doesn't support passive mode. I have a PIX 515E running IOS 6.3(5) that does NAT on that network, and has a static address (not pooled) for the machine that does the ftp. FTP fixup is turned on for ports 20 and 21. The ftp client connects fine, but file transfers fail, or download at a whopping 1.7k a sec. (Even when the host is in the DMZ outside the firewall and thus on the same 100 BASE-T network). Can anybody else think of what might be causing this? Passive FTP connections work great, but the software won't do it. I've tried configuring reverse DNS records like they (cisco) say, but I still get nothing. What gives? WangNV fucked around with this message at 04:59 on Apr 18, 2007 |

I am totally new to Cisco gear, but I managed to pick up a brand new 7912G for £28, looking at this guide: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Cisco+7905%252F7912+IP+Phones It says I need a service contact to be able to download the latest firmware for it. Where can I buy these service contracts from, and what's the part number I'm after? Cisco's CCO site is less than helpful.

There's dynamips, which you can google for, except it requires you supply your own IOS image. Alternatively, there's the Boson NetSim demo. Without an IOS image, your best bet is to buy some cheap hardware. You could also buy a 3600 series router, which can be had for about two-hundred dollars, and then steal it's IOS image for use with dynamips. You can occasionally find a real bargain on ebay.
