I’m only partially tracking the thread but wasn’t there going to be a normal 2 x 10gig LAG into the “new” switch?

 

Either way, I have available today:

 

1 x 4200-48 poe with the 2 x sfp+ module and 2 x PS

2 x 4200-24 with the 2 x sfp+ module and 2 x PS

1 x 3300

1 x HP 28284 J

3 x 4200/4500 stacking cables

 

I can default and leave one of these in the mice cabinet.  No extra optics or DACs today…  I can leave a stacking cable though.

 

I’d like to do the defaulting/(and firmwaring) this AM around 10:30 and would deliver to mice cabinet around 2pm.

 

So, whoever wants to make the final “I’LL TAKE THAT ONE” call lemme know and I’ll deliver.

 

You can also drop me a line at 218-390-5485.

All,

 

3300's Can't join a Mixed 45**.  We'd have to monitor it separately.  Troubleshooting, monitoring and management would be easier with another 4200/4500/4550.

 

Thank you,

We may have a couple EX3300 as well. I can check tomorrow if there is any interest.

provided my work tonight goes as planned I can leave a:

in the mice cabinet (or elsewhere).

 

note: no optics...  but I could leave a couple DACs probably

 

I could leave 24 port non-POE 4200 if preferred.  Why do I have 48 port poe switch at 511?  So many questions....

 

Or........ I may have a 3300-24 available, which gives 4x SFP+ instead.

 

Any preferences whilst I rummage through my oddball grab bag?​

Compudyne has offered to donate an EX4200 with a 2x10G uplink card to MICE to help the cause.

I am in favor of a regular layer 2 uplink.  I think the main reason I feel this way is it is industry standard, and then the switch has its own forwarding table.  We have seen issues in the past where if the link on a high volume port goes down, the MAC gets removed from the forwarding table, and then all of that traffic gets flooded to all other ports until BGP times out.  This seems to be especially problematic when it hits the 1G ports.

My vision of a future upgrade would be something along the lines of a 5200, or equiv from another manufacturer that has all of the other switches uplinked to it.  Then we would have separate forwarding tables, a place to connect remote switches, as well as something that has some 40G, and 100G capabilities.  All of the uplinks would then be easy to monitor/graph without excessive load on the switch.  Copper SFP+/QSFP+ cables can be used between switches and they are affordable/easy to come by.

Most likely we'd have to kick off (umm. move) the three members that
are fiber 1G connections in the expansion slot on the 4200, get a 10G
card, optics for both sides, etc.  Then decide if we are going to run
virtual chassis protocol, or just layer-2 uplink into the two other switches.

Or we move the 19 active 1G copper members + 3 1G fiber members off the 4200
altogether and eat up ports on the 4550 with 19 copper SFPs. Then we wouldn't
have to do "Mixed-mode Virtual-Chassis" then either.

> Although- it looks like so far all the paths with loss seem to have "vcp-1" in them?

As I've stated multiple times, I think since VCP is active/passive,
there is only one active ring around the the VC through VCP-1 now,
and I would expect to see vcp-1 in all paths through the EX4200.

We can swap active and passive with the command I posted previously.
That way we can troubleshoot if there is a port/cable issue, or if it is
an issue with the device itself.

Or it could be a defect in this coderev (although I doubt it).
