I'm trying to get our Catalyst 4006 up and running on our wan. A few months back our 3com router went down and a local company provided us with a Cisco router on lease. We run a Novell network and the router did not have the proper software to do ipx. Therefore this building has been cut off from the rest of our novell network. The fiber connecting this building to our main building was finished about three weeks ago. The guy who set up the catalyst quit and there has not been a replacement from the company lending us the router. Therefore, I am flying by the seat of my pants trying to get this thing going.
What we have:
Catalyst 4006
Service Engine: WS-X4013 (2 gb ports)
Module 2: WS-4232-L3 (2 gb ports 34 ethernet ports)
Module 3: WS-4148-RJ 48 port
Module 4: WS-4148-RJ 48 port
We only have one Gigabit port populated (the first port on the 4013), the rest are empty.
A good deal of the initial configuration was already completed by the guy who quit. My first impression was that the Gigabit port connecting us to the world was disabled (like it was on the other end). I figured if I could just re-enable this port we could get communication going.
I guess, before I get too deep, I should ask a question about the general layout. I take it the service engine is also considered a module. Therefore, speaking only of the Gigabit ports then:
port 1 is 1/1 (port 1 on the 4013)
port 2 is 1/2
port 3 is 2/1 (port 1 on the 4232)
port 4 is 2/2
The 4013 shows that port 1 (1/1) is enabled and up. The rest of the ports are down.
When I console in to the 4232 it shows that the Gigabit Port 1 is down and that port 3 is up. I have tried to take port 3 down, but it will not let me. In this instance, when consoled into the 4232, are the ports reorderd? That is:
port 1 on the 4013 is considered port 3 when consoled into the 4232
port 3 for the 4013 is considered port 1 when consoled into the 4232
Or am I missing something completely?
I'll stop here for now.
