how can I pull the port-VLAN assignment info from a CAT 6500

[eksantrik]

Hi all,

I have been working on a cisco CAT 6500 switch. I am trying to pull the port-VLAN assignment information using the show commands but so far I couldnt find what command gives me that information.
Config. file doesnt show the assignments and the command "show interface status" is not available...

can anyone help me with this. It might be a very easy thing but it has been my problem lately.

thanks in adance

Did you try the show vlan command?

Here is a link to a command reference guide for the Catalyst 6500 that you may find of use. The "show version to squeeze" link on the left hand side will take you to a page with some more information about the show vlan command you can use to gather more information about your configured VLANs. A simple show vlan without any syntax should provide you with the information you are looking for though.

Use the "show interface status " command , this puts in an easy to read format for all the ports....

He says that command is not available, viper...

maybe the big question, is are you running CatOS or IOS?

Can make a huge difference in the commands.
CatOS: show port
IOS: show vlan

also, what mode are you in? global config?

thanks for all the answers,

I have a CAT 6509 here..I am running IOS.

so far I tried the following commands:

1) show ports or show port --> this command is not available in my CLI..the only thing it allows me to execute is "show policy-map"
2) show interface status --> not such command is available
3) show interface vlans ---> doesnt give the port-VLAN assignments

I am still working on it but nothing yet

thanks again

For ios..you just need the "show vlan" command. It will display all the vlans configured on a switch and the ports that are configured for them on the far right.

This doesn't include the trunk ports.

 

[eksantrik]

show vlan doesnt work for me..for some reason it says "No virtual LANs configured"

but I can see them in the running config...
I can use the "show interface vlan <vlan #>" command but it doesnt give me what I want

 

[lerdalt]

did you do a "show vlan" or "show vlans"? I just tried them both from my 6509. Show vlan works. vlans gives the same error you got.

Are you telnetted in with less than privelege of 15?

Sure you not running hybrid , where you have catos on layer 2 and IOS on layer 3 ? If its IOS then "show int status" is a valid command on all IOS switches which leads me to think you have hybrid . Do a show mod and show version and post here .

i HOPE THIS HELPS...AS YOU CAN SEE IT DOESNT LET ME EXECUTE "SHOW MODE" COMMAND

Early deployment kind of gives it away, I think...

It appears you are connecting to the MSFC which is the routing component of the switch. Go console to the switch and I bet its running CATOS.

Agree with brianms , you have a hybrid , you might be able to pull the L2 address from the msfc by doing a show cdp nei detail command , it will usually show the trunk link to the l2 supervisor . Native IOS was not even available when they had 12.1.13 code out .
