3900 ios gateway Software MTP

I currently have 3  Cisco 3925E    call manager clusters.

Cluster 1

Cluster 2

SME Cluster

I have two 3900 gateways currently connected to cluster 2 that are configured for as 500 software MTP's. That is all these gatways do now, nothing else.

I would like to share these software MTP's with the other 2 call manager cluster.  I do not see a way to do this.

 Is it possable to share the software MTP's between mulitple CUCM 9.x clusters?

You cannot share the same dspfarm. You can however create separate dspfarms (subdividing the total capacity in the process) and separate call manager groups which point to   Cisco 3945     separate clusters.

SPAN configuration on 3750

I'm trying to configure a mirror port on a WS-C3750X-48T-L  . This configuration needs to replicate data from local ports, but I need that also act as a regular access port.

With the initial configuration, SPAN port, there is no problem, all the data of the configurated ports is replicating in the configurated port. On the port configurated as mirror there is a PC connected for audio recording. When the port is not operating as SPAN there is communications without problem over the LAN. But when I configure the port as SPAN, communication is interrupted.

Here is the actual configuration:

SWITCH1-PISO7#sh monitor session 1

Session 1

Type                   : Local Session

Source Ports           :

    Both               : Fa1/0/1-7,Fa1/0/9-12,Fa1/0/32-33,Fa1/0/35,Fa1/0/38

Destination Ports      : Fa1/0/47

    Encapsulation      : Native

          Ingress      : Enabled, default VLAN = 215

    Ingress encap : Untagged

SWITCH1-PISO7#sh run int fa1/0/47

beforehand thanks for your help

For the 3750 family, the span destination ingress forwarding  capability's only purpose is to enable ingress traffic forwarding of  frames received on the span destination port from an Intrusion Detection  Systems (IDS) or comparable device. Like a span destination port  without ingress forwarding, MAC address learning is disabled on a span  destination port with ingress forwarding, and a span destination port  with ingress forwarding does not transmit any traffic except that WS-C3750X-48T-S    required for the SPAN session.

Cisco 3560 switchport light stays orange when VLAN is applied.

I have a cisco WS-C3560V2-24TS-S  as my core agragate switch in my network. Everything is running fine currently until I tried adding a second port on one of my DLSAMs to add funcionality to another network. I currently have another similar device running two seperate ethernet ports on two seperate VLANs that are managed in the software of the DSLAM to determine which network a particular DSL port talks on. This second one however is giving me pletny of problems.

i have configured the WS-C3560X-24P-L switch port to the VLAN I require, I am able to plug in a laptop and talk on the network correctly (pull DHCP and get on the internet on the correct network). But when I try plugging up my DSLAM the port stays orange. If I leave the VLAN set to the default (vlan1) it will turn green but as soon as I change the VLAN it turns orange again. The settings are the same on both DLSAMS as far as port and VLAN configuration goes. The port is linking up correctly at 100 Full on both sides.

I will add more information as I continue to troubleshoot this. But for now hopefully this should give a brief explanation of my problem in case I am just overlooking something very simple.

Setup Port Channel on Cisco 3560

I have 2 Layer3 switches. (Cisco WS-C3560X-24P-L). I am setting:

interface FastEthernet0/1

 channel-group 1 mode on

!

interface FastEthernet0/2

 channel-group 1 mode on

!

interface FastEthernet0/3

 channel-group 1 mode on

!

interface FastEthernet0/4

 channel-group 1 mode on

!

interface Port-channel 1

 no switchport

 ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0

Other switch is same but using 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

I am getting connectivity. But Basically would like to have fail-over and load balancing.

So out of the 4 fast Ethernet ports. If one fails. There should still be connectivity.

Get rid of your IP addresses.  Port bonding is a layer 2 game and you don't need them.

Here is an example of a working LACP etherchannel configuration on a WS-C3560G-24TS running IPservices 12.2(50)SE4.  The config on the partner switch is identical.

Cisco 3560 Switches Installing SFP Modules

Removing and installing an SFP module WS-C3560V2-48TS-S can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert SFP

modules more often than is absolutely necessary.

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface on the chassis.

Step 2 Find the send (TX) and receive (RX) markings that identify the top side of the SFP module.

Note On some SFP modules, the send and receive (TX and RX) markings might be replaced by arrows

that show the direction of the connection, either send or receive (TX or RX).

Step 3 Align the SFP module in front of the slot opening.

Step 4 Insert the SFP module into the slot until you feel the connector on the module snap into place in the rear

of the slot.

Step 5 For fiber-optic SFP modules, remove the dust plugs from the optical ports, and store them for later use.

Caution Do not remove the dust plugs from the fiber-optic SFP module port or the rubber caps from the

fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module

ports and cables from contamination and ambient light.

Step 6 Insert the cable connector into the SFP module:

 • For fiber-optic SFP modules, insert the LC or MT-RJ cable connector into the SFP module.

 • For copper SFP modules, insert the RJ-45 cable connector into the SFP module.

Note When connecting to 1000BASE-T SFP modules, be sure to use a twisted four-pair, Category 5 cable.

3560 Showing Garbage in Console

Cisco WS-C3560X-48PF-S  series products have two main categories, Cisco 3560V2 and Cisco 3560X, 3560V2 is FE based switch while 3560X is GE based switch, the previous Cisco 3560, 3560G and 3560E are end of sales now and replaced by Cisco 3560V2 and Cisco 3560X. Cisco Catalyst 3560 v2 Series consumes less power than its predecessors. The 3560-X Series Switches is an enterprise-class lines of stackable and standalone switches.

I have few 8-port 3560's (WS-C3560-8PC) that I have been using to roll out a Metro Ethernet upgrade.  I have one switch that originally configured just fine, but now it is displaying all kinds of gibberish in the console window.  I can telnet into the switch ok.  The configuration register on it is set to 0xF.  But I have tried using a serial connection from multiple computers, and they all show the same garbage.  I have 4 of these switches next to each other.  They all have the same IOS: 15.0(2)SE image.  They all have the same configuration register.  I can console into all of them except for this one switch.

I have verified my terminal settings, and they are as suggested:

Speed: 9600 bps     

Databits: 8      

Parity bits: 0     

Stop bit: 1     

No flow control

This time, I have tried changing to all of the following baud rates, and they all produce gibberish:

1200 bps     

2400 bps     

4800 bps     

9600 bps     

19200 bps  

38400 bps     

57600 bps     

115200 bps
