I can't imagine how the toplogy will help out any much more. I think the problem appears to be fairly well defined now. 1) the switch is sending out a valid arp. 2) the host sees the arp and replies correctly, but the switch fails to record the mac. 3) the switch shows arps only on VLAN 2. I...

Since you appear to be able to change a lot of the configuration of this switch, can you change the trunck port you have on "interface FastEthernet0/24". either turn it off/unplug it if it isn't being used by anything else. Maybe your arp packet is traversing the trunk somehow and that is...

ahhh, so you completely wiped the config. Now here is a situation where having it in a text doc is better than tftp, because when the switch has no IP addresses you'll be unable to use tftp until you reconfigure the interface to connect to the tftp server.

it should just be "copy tftp start", then plug in the ip addresses and file name. how did you resolve your password issue?

when you clear the table, you clear dynamic addresses and then they are immediately repopulated as frames are transmitted.

good point vipergg, if its just redundancy that is desired, "Network fault tolerance (NFT)" would be fine and requires nothing from the switch. I believe this might be the default, because every server on my network is like this. If its load balancing, then one of the variants of...

Interesting problem...while you're testing, try putting a static arp into your switch and see if it works. also remove that no ip route-cache statement....I'm not even sure what it does on a SVI

if you do a "show mac-address-table" command, it will show what mac addresses are attached to what ports. if you identify what the first half of the mac address is for the HP printers, you can then scan down the list and see which match that address. If you haven't worked a lot with mac...

interesting problem, I'm curious to see what other people will suggest. if all your printers are from the same vendor, you could look at the mac-address-table and then the mac address should reflect that manufacturor. Of course a lot of the bigger manufacturors have several ranges, if you're...

was the enable password encrypted in your configuration? I have a feeling you copied the encrypted password and now have a password of characters rather than an actual word.

again he's thinking etherchannel and not teaming. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/254101 "This operation is transparent to the operating system and other devices on the network.

don't try to put the command on the vlan interface, but go to physical interface that the other server is plugged into. I'm wondering if the vlan tagging isn't getting inserted into the frame. when you described the arp table as not getting a response, that sounds like a vlan problem to me...

I suppose it depends on how your network is setup. You seem to be saying that their is a a distinction between internal traffic and internet traffic? That presumes you have several servers at your co-lo room and there is internal traffic between the server. If this is the case, there is...

helpdeskdan is right, portsecurity is a bit more what you're looking for. the access-list you've set up doesn't hit because all the traffic is being switched and not routed (thus never requiring an access-list check).

I just copy into notepad, tftp seems like too many extra steps for just the configuration.

Server teaming is different than Etherchannel. Teaming is essentially invisible to the switch and requires no switch configuration. Etherchannel on the other hand would configuration on both the server and the switch, but I haven't seen server admins using this since gigabit interfaces came...

have you received an answer yet or figured out the solution? I suggest applying "switchport access vlan 1" to whatever port you're trying to ping to.
