Management VLAN

2000-09-11 Thread Jeroen Timmer

Hi,

I'm having a discussion with some colleage's of mine about the management
VLAN.


One says thaty the management VLAN will let trough broadcasts  I'm
saying that it will not let trough broadcasts. The management VLAN is only
to manage your switches and routers by telnetting etc. and it won't let
trough broadcasts..

Am I right or does my colleage win this one :) ??

VLAN just devide ports to different different broadcast domains. Broadcast
will go only to ports that are in the same broadcast domain.

So broadcast will go thro but not to all ports.

RE: Management VLAN

2000-09-11 Thread Ehab Mohamad Abdullah

It wont let the broadcast unless you spevified an IP helper Address, because
you have a router in the middle of the VLAN setup, so if you have five VLANs
, they wont be able to communicate with out a router.
and 
It is very well known that routers do not forward broadcast. Only switches
can do so.

Management VLAN - 2

2000-09-11 Thread Jeroen Timmer

Hi,

Just to point out to some that replyed to my message...

Management VLAN is something different than a normal VLAN. The management
VLAN is mostly on every trunk port of a VLAN configuration. So if I have
about 6 different VLAN's on different trunk ports, the management VLAN would
also be on the trunkports of every VLAN. That's why I posted the question if
the management VLAN (configured on each VLAN domain) will let trough
broadcasts.

Re: Management VLAN - 2 [ long ]

2000-09-11 Thread Scott Nelson

There is no big mystery around the "management VLAN", it is just a regular
VLAn that the Sup or similar device needs to made a part of to communicate
with the outside world so that you can communicate and manage it.

By default, the Sup modules are part of VLAN one, which you should use as
you management VLAN and put all other traffic on another VLAN if you really
want to make it easier for troubleshooting and a couple other reasons, but
you don't have to do this if you don't want to. It just makes your network
cleaner. If you only have one VLAN and a small network, just leave it that
way.

I make my management VLAN an rfc1918 network, ( IE 192.168.x.x, etc )
so that I am using IP addresses that are blocked from being routed, for
security reasons and that I am not burning IP addresses that don't need to
go outside my network, IE: accessing the internet for HTTP, FTP, etc.

You can put what VLAN the Sup module attaches to, part of any VLAN so you
could make a management VLAN, any VLAN number if you wish. However, the
default management VLAN by default from Cisco and other vendors is VLAN 1.

I would recommend though that VLAN 1 remain the management VLAN for 1
reason, if you add a new switch to the network, it is by default in VLAN 1
unless it is programmed before it is put on the network. Why take a chance
of it being on the wrong VLAN? There have been cases where some switches
just won't work very well in anything else but VLAN 1 for management. Just a
bug in the code. Some switches won't even let you move management from
working out of anything else than VLAN 1. Mostly the older switches though.

If you have under 200 switches/devices on VLAN 1 that need to be managed and
the router goes down or you start having router issues, all of your devices
are already on the same VLAN, which doesn't require routing at this point
since they are all on the same VLAN, then stick all everything else in
another VLAN. I have had NICs go bad and cause some nasty broadcast storms
but since they were on another VLAN, only that VLAN was really effected.

You can have a port setup to be in VLAN 1 so you can attach a workstation to
it to get to your devices in a pinch as you won't be routing at this point
as you will be on the same subnet.
( Assuming you are not doing secondary addressing or subinterfaces on the
router or running on the VLAN )

I even set aside port 1 on all the switches I manage so that when I am in a
closet, I know I have a port to connect my laptop to, to manage the
switches, routers with. I even host 5 addresses on this net from my DHCP
server so that I don't even have to change my settings on my MAC Powerbook.

Did I miss your question? Did this help?

Hello,

Is it possible to associsate the switch ip address with a vlan other than
the vlan 1, in 1900 switches?

I know in 6000 series switches you can associate the switch ip address with
the vlan you line and make it management vlan.



Thanks for your reply

Re: Management vlan and the IP address

2000-09-09 Thread Bryan Osoro

From my knowledge of switching you can not change the management interface
on the 1900/2820 switches.  You can however change the management VLAN on
the 2900XL/3500XL as well most all of the set based switches (ie 5000, 6000,
8500 etc) switches.  Unfortunately that doesn't help you out in your
situation.
