Hello The Sup1 will support two 100Mbps connections, either fibre or UTP/MII from memory depending on supervisor model. I'm pretty sure that the Sup1 supports ISL trunking, but find out how much memory the Sup1 has - if it is 8MB, you are limited in the versions of CatOS you can run to about 2.3

Hi It has been a while since I've touched a 5000 but... Can you ping the syslog server from the Cat? If not, you may need to add a route so that the console knows how to get to the syslog server (set ip route ...) HTH RM Dennis H wrote: > > I'm trying to get remote logging enabled on a Cat5

Hi My advice is the following: - Troubleshooting requires knowledge of other three topics so it should be done last - Depending on your experience, do the exam you think you are strongest in first, it's always nice to get the first one chalked up and to get comfortable with the exam format. R

Hi Used one many years (95/96) ago before upgrading to a Cat5000. It is a 8 x 10BaseT, 1 x FDDI DAS/2 x FDDI SAS switch - designed primarily as a FDDI concentrator. This is a CatOS device, but the software I used is of a very low revision of CatOS ( > has anyone ever used a catalyst 1200. from

In addition to Thomas's comment's, if you are not using auto-negotiation on a switch connected to a Sun NIC, the Sun NIC will default to only detecting the speed - duplex will be set to half. If you want to manually set the speed and duplex on a Sun NIC, check out Sun's website for the required c

Chris This is dredging into the distant past, but I encountered a similar password sync error with a Windows NT domain - the domain had "User must logon to change password" selected. Once this was changed, all was well - it also fixed a few Outlook/Exchange e-mail issues as well. Other than tha

Symon Things to check: - are there any access lists or firewalling software preventing multicast traffic between the routers and "disconnected" switch? - are any of the switches "stacked"? If so, ensure software versions are compatable. - are there any duplex issues between switches. In parti
