Repeatedly hold down the space bar when you get see Running POST... from the Console Port using a terminal emulator such as TeraTerm in order to access the BootRom> prompt. Try using the command "boot 2" in order to try booting the switch using the secondary (2) software image bank instead of...

dphoneguy24, I would suggest upgrading to 12.3.3 if I were you. The 12.2.2 release was put for a limited time to introduce new hardware. Extreme quickly moved to 12.3.1, 12.3.2, 12.3.3. In new software supporting stacking (12.2, 12.3, 12.4), QP7 is unavailable because it used for the stack...

jgreene101, Recommendation #1 - Move to 12.3.3 or downgrade to 12.1.3 The 12.2.2 was only a limited release that Extreme came out with to support new hardware that they introducted. They did not really move forward with 12.2.2 so I would not suggest that you run your network on 12.2. I am...

To answer your question, NO this will not affect the functionality of your BD8806. Extreme Networks has individual Forwarding Database (FDB) entries per VLAN. So even though you have Virtual MAC addresses (linked to VRRP intances) for several VLANS per VRRP instance and these VLANs are all...

dtweten, Don't be afraid to ask questions in this forum, especially when/if you are new to Extreme Networks. I am very familiar with Extreme Networks stacking so if you have any questions no matter how simple you think they might be just post them. It helps everyone. I try to check the forum...

vbhoj74, What you are trying to accomplish is tricky, but possible using the model switches you have. There are two ways you could do this. Method 1: You could just leave IP Forwarding enabled and use Dynamic Access Control Lists to prevent vlan10 and vlan15 from reaching one another...

sikek, What type of Extreme Networks Switches do you have? Newer ExtremeXOS or older ExtremeWare Switches. Best if you can just list the model numbers and I'll figuer it out. QoS is configured a little differen on the old stuff vs. the new stuff. I can help. I happen to be an expert on...

This is normal. All this warning is trying to tell you is that the Extreme Switch itself has multiple VRRP protected VLANs that are going to be using the same Virtual MAC address. I think the limit is 7 VMACs for VRRP. You can review the release notes for your software version and read the...

Yes, you can do this in ExtremeXOS switches. It's known as Netlogin with MAC-based VLANs. It's a little bit tricky because you have to use a RADIUS database to authenticate each MAC-address and assign the port to the appropriate VLAN. Howeverk, you can simply the deployment by using a local...

horsebox1977 - Unfortunately, Cisco's Netflow standard and sFlow are two different animals. Both are used for statistical analysis of traffic flows. However, Netflow is more L3 specific, whereas sFlow can get you both L2 and L3 statistics. sFlow was created as a standard interface for gathering...

Your missing a few steps my friend. IP Forwarding for one, and you must run a dynamic routing protocol because PIM-DM and PIM-SM both rely on either RIP or OSPF to create their MCast routing tables. Configuring PIM-DM Overview To configure a switch to support PIM-DM perform the following...

What Extreme Networks switch are you using? ExtemeXOS based operating system or older ExtremeWare operating system. Can you post the output from "show fdb port 1" where "1" is the port number connecting to your server. A couple of things to consider, but let's start with the obvious. If...

SFP, XFP and XENPAK are different form factor optics and they do come in various speeds for Extreme and other vendors. The SFP and XFP form factors both use the newer/smaller LC style optical patch cord connectors. The XENPAK relies on the older and larger SC style connector. SFP's also known...

When the POST Testing * appears you can hit the space bar to access the switch Bootrom. From there I would suggest that you change the config to secondary and then enter boot to boot the box off the secondary configuration. Looks like your primary configuration could be corrupt. See if you...

Where is the DHCP server located? Same switch or different switch?

Wondering if you have some soft of security scanning software. Believe this was a known issue a while back. What software are you running on the switch? I would suggest that you consider 12.0.2.25 or 12.0.3.16 (latest) software. This will probably fix your issue, because the fixes for the...

Before I even make any suggestions. What software version are you running on your BD? My recommendation, run 12.0.2.25 or 12.0.3.16 Both very stable for this type of environment. If you are running sub 11.6 it's time to seriously consider upgrading. Just a suggestion. Also, you really...

Seems like something on their is sending an SNMP message. If possible, load a sniffer on the PC like Wireshark and see if you can capture the outbound packet. I suspect that something on that machine is sending some sort of query.

The primary reason to stack switches is to simplify management. When you stack switches together they form a "virtual chassis". For example if you had 8 switches, you would normally have to give each an IP address and manage each independently. If you stack them together, all 8 switches act...

You should definately install EPICenter. If you need anyhelp with it, just post questions here. You can schedule weekly backups and you can configure how many backup copies you want to keep, 5 weeks, 6 weeks, or no limit, etc. You should schedule your weekly archives for a downtime. For...
