Good day to All

I have a stacked pair of PE 8024 blade switches, a 10gb interface from each (eg. Te1/0/1 and Te2/0/1) presents to a pair of NICs on the physical side of a vSwitch (I have 4 hosts altogether) .  At the moment I have them trunked to allow a number of VLANs to traverse.  My question is would it be ok or even good practice to create a Port-Group/LAG containing Te1/0/1 and Te2/0/1 so that I can use IP Hashing load balancing to fully utilise the bandwidth.  I have read that using 2 trunked connections is not efficient.  Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Eric

Hello everybody,

It is the first time i have to configure a Dell switch and I have trouble setting up my VLANs.

I need 3 VLAN:

VLAN1 : internet connected with a router for the internet access

VLAN2 : public with 2 wireless router for public

VLAN3 : private for the office and printers

Vlan1 set up

1  2

U U

Vlan 2 set up

1 - 8

U  U

Vlan 3 set up

1 2  9-24

U U U U

PVID set up:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24

1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 3  3   3    3    3   3   3    3   3    3   3    3   3    3   3  3

I really apologize for this beginner question but can you tell me what's wrong with this set up?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I've read a post on this site which suggested these OIDs:

 .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.5000.2.6132.1.1.1.1.4.3.1.2

 .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.5000.2.6132.1.1.1.1.4.3.1.3

 .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.5000.2.6132.1.1.1.1.4.4.0   (rollup of all CPU activity) 

Unfortunately, these OIDs don't work on our switch.

The first two return nothing in snmpwalk, the last one returns this:

"SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.674.10895.5000.2.6132.1.1.1.1.4.4.0 = Gauge32: 0"

Our system info is as this: Powerconnect 8024F, 5.0.0.4, VxWorks 6.6

The only OID to return a usable result was this:

.1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.5000.2.6132.1.1.1.1.4.9.0

However, it returns a string (rollup of all CPU activity).

Please advise, what are the OIDs for 1min/5min CPU activity?

Thank you very much.

First question is that on both of my switches, there is one vrrp address that both switches take master state on, I've tried reloading both switches and I'm not sure why, all of the other vrrps will switch to master or backup properly based on priority and media state. I also am seeing router vrid errors on the switch that I would expect to take a backup state on that VRRP.

Second question is, I can ping the VRRP address on each switch, but I cannot ping the other switches vlan interface address. I have a cross connect

Hi,

On N3000 with 6.3.1.8 OS I tried to set up HTTPS web management access, with following commands:

(config)# crypto certificate 1 generate
(config-crypto)# key-generate             <---- just default key length, nothing put in cert config
(config-crypto)# exit
(config)# ip http secure-certificate 1
(config)# ip http server-secure

But accessing switch ip with a browser, returns error.

When I check SSL certificates on a switch with:
# show crypto certificate mycertificates 1

There is just a blank/empty line as command output

Am I doing it wrong?

Is there a firmware version that has addressed the 'Maximum Samplers Limit exceeded' error when 32 are reached?  I have stacked 48 port switches and would like to have all ports set.

Dear all ,

I  am facing a issues in N2048  switch , we have created a multiple vlan in switch , but we are unable to communicate from vlan to other vlan .

Running configuration is as attached .

please help me on this issue .

thanks,

zubair

Hi All,

I apprecaite General Mode is more flexible when interconnecting two Dell switches.

However, is it preferable to use trunk mode when interconnecting a powerconnect to a different vendor switch or does it matter? Both mode work fine as I have tested this, but I wanted to understand if there was a preferred standard.

Thanks

Jamie

Hi Everyone,

I have just inherited my first Dell PowerConnect 6224, and I have been trying to configure VLANs on it with intervlan routing but i've gotten too frustrated with it. What I'd like to achieve is 4 VLANs as follows:

Vlan 1 - Management (10.1.1.0/24)

Vlan 2 - GW2 (192.168.2.0/24) 

Vlan 10 - GW1 (10.1.10.0/24) 

Vlan 11 - Server LAN (10.1.11.0/24)

GW1 IP - 10.1.10.86

GW2 IP - 192.168.2.1

So basically what I'd like to do is Port 1 will be a trunk port connected to Gateway 1(10.1.10.86) with vlans 10 and 11.  Ports 2-13 I'd like to have them on VLAN 11, this where NIC 1 of the servers will be connected. Ports 14-23 I'd like to have them on VLAN 2, this is where NIC 2 of the servers will be connected.  Port 24 will be an access VLAN 2 connected to Gateway 2(192.168.2.1). 

We have two seperate internet connections coming into the office, and the whole purpose of this config is so that my servers reside in 10.1.11.0/24 network, and can access the 10.1.10.0/24 network on their primary nic while having access to the secondary internet as well. 

Gateway 1 supports VLANs however Gateway 2 doesn't hence why I'd like to put Gateway 2 in access mode.

Can someone please help me with the configs? I'd post my current configs but they are *** and nothing is working on them.

Thanks

Our network consists of N2XXX, N3XXX, and N4XXX switches. We would like to remove telnet access from all switches and use SSH. What commands would I need in order to initiate a SSH session from one Dell switch to another? I have it set up for remote access but not seeing how I can SSH from one switch to another instead of using telnet.

Thanks

I have a N2048 that I can access while on the physical network but I cant access it over our VPN tunnel. I can access all other devices on the same vlan / ip range that the switch management resides on but can't seem to get to it. This is also with turning off any kind of management security. 

Any insights appreciated.

I recently made a similar post, but had to change the config to include VRRP and now I'm back to where I was before.

Vlan 309 serves to connect between this switch and our firewall (asa 5525-x). If I put a machine on Vlan 309 it can reach the world without any problems, but it cannot talk to any of the other vlans (cannot ping hosts as well as interfaces or vrrp interfaces on the switch)

The other Vlans (300-307) can all ping between themselves, capable of reaching other hosts, as well as switch interfaces and vrrp interfaces, including the switch interface and vrrp interface of Vlan 309, but they fail to reach the gateway. I assume the default route (0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.241) should be all I need, I did try to add additional routes in for individual vlans but didn't see any change and I have removed them.

I've included the config here, as well as my show ip route output below that.

Thanks

==EDIT==

I should also point out that the only VLAN on the ASA is 309, even though I have all of the vlans on the trunk port that goes to the ASA, I think the problem is related to the fact that the ASA only has an IP address from the VLAN 309 subnet (the 10.10.1.241 address that we see set as the defualt gateway)

Can someone help me to set up a VLAN on a 3548P please? My understanding of VLANs is fairly high-level so I need help with the detail of the configuration as I've never done it before.

This is what I have at the moment.

• a 3548P which has workstations connected to it. It is connected to a Netgear firewall for access to the internet with a default gateway of 192.168.1.250 - the min address range is 192.169.0.0/22.
• no VLANs at present apart from the default VLAN1 - all devices are connected to that VLAN 
• the configuration of the switch is basically as it comes out of the box - the only configuration it's had is to set the admin password, give it an IP address for management purposes and to set the default gateway - basically what the setup wizard does

This is what I want to achieve.

• I need to segregate a couple of computers so they have no access to the rest of the network and the rest of the network has no access to them
• the segregated computers will still need access to the internet though (as will the other computers)

As I said, my understanding of this stuff is limited but I presume I need to,

• create a VLAN for the segregated computers
• assign the ports those computers are connected on to the new VLAN
• ensure that both the computers still on the default VLAN and the couple on the new VLAN have internet access but no access to each other

Is it possible to create a VLAN just for the segregated computers but leave the others as they are, i.e. on VLAN1, or do I have to create 2 new VLANS, one for the segregated computers and another for the remainder (and them move them off VLAN1)?

I'm also confused by the difference between trunk and general ports and when to use them.

I'm sure this is a very simple setup for someone who knows what they are doing! Can anyone help to plug the gaps in my knowledge please?

Trying to update firmware on Dell N3024 switch. Syntax is correct but when it executes the transfer I get the transfer failed error. Also tried by USB port and get the USB not detected error. Is the USB port on the switch disabled by default? If so how do you enable ? Have also tried 5 different USB thumb drives to the same result.

We are currently having some issues with our Blade Server LAG connection. The error we receive is "0/3/1 is transitioned from the Forwarding state to the Blocking state in instance 0". This happens and then the connection will drop as the connections transition from forwarding to learning states. This happens a few times per day.

Connection Information:

• We are not using Jumbo Frames for our connection to the blade servers
• Portfast is not enabled.
• Firmware is currently on 3.0.0.8 and the latest is 3.3.15.1
• There is a high number of Broadcast, Multicast and Unicast Packets on the LAG Channel.

Do you have any suggestions for a fix?

Thanks in advance

Why our Dell Networking X1052 cancels all configuration to factory default after power off?

Is it right? So, if the power off, I need configure switch again after power on?

I'll keep this short as there isn't a lot to it.

I have an ESX cluster (8 servers) connected to a 8024f. There are 2 vlans that the ESX cluster operates on, I am able to connect to both of them from my desktop. The switch has a very basic config, mostly trunk all ports to ESX and 4 ports ether-channeled to the core Cisco. I have been tasked with getting MS NLB multicast working, but I've had a %$&& of a time doing it. For the most part I've enabled multicast but I'm not having any luck so I went further to also enable IGMP ... then I made it a querier. At the end of the day I didn't get anywhere except one screen (MFDB IGMP Snooping table) that seems to tell me that on my one VLAN there are 2 dynamic "Network Assist" mac address for two different ports (labeled under "Table" and those same mac addresses are listed under "Forbidden ports"

What am I doing wrong? Funny thing is this was working (I admit with a lot less of a config before today) a week ago until one of the VMware engineers tweaked with an interface


Update- I wrote all this yesterday but it seems that it was never posted. Sense then I decided to remove all the commands from the switch that I entered in for this and start from scratch. I will be creating a port on the switch and assigning my laptop to it. If I can connect to the cluster then I’ll know that the problem is at the core Cisco switch… and I’ll be asking that question here as well. I made no special changes to the core when connecting this switch for multicast, considering the core is already running multicast I didn’t think I had to

Hi all.

I have some question.

I have unknow mac adress on port this switch. I do not know who owns this address. How I can get ip adress this device?

Hi Guys,

This could be an old issues, but I need help on the speed configuration for this DELL transceiver installed on DELL Powerconnect N3024F switch.

I have 2 x network industrial device with 100Base-FX port. I need to connect these 2 devices to DELL N3024F switch.

I configured the 2 x DELL transceiver to 'speed 100' for the 2 x interface required:

DELL transceiver Interface status:

console#show interfaces status gigabitethernet 1/0/5

Port      Description     Duplex Speed   Neg  Link   Flow  M  VLAN
                                              State  Ctrl
--------- --------------- ------ ------- ---- ------ ----- -- -------------------
Gi1/0/5                   Full   100     Off  Down   Off   A  4

console#show interfaces status gigabitethernet 1/0/3

Port      Description     Duplex Speed   Neg  Link   Flow  M  VLAN
                                              State  Ctrl
--------- --------------- ------ ------- ---- ------ ----- -- -------------------
Gi1/0/3                   Full   100     Off  Down   Off   A  4

Questions;

Even after configured the 2 x port to connect at 100Mbps, I still could not get the 2 port to communicate with the 2 devices. Can DELL confirm that the transceiver can connect at 100Mbps?

Do the latest DELL firmware version: N3000v6.3.1.11a23 for N3024F helps to resolve the communication issues?

Thanks for your kind advice and understanding.

Regards,

George
