Hi,
I have a customer who wants to connect Nortel equipment (8K) to 3548 Catalyst.
First problem: we are not able to see the MAC addres on 3548 port (we have tried also fixing speed/duplex ). So we have no IP connectivity for this equipment.
Second problem: Trying to define static mac with command:
mac-address-table static 0004.dc99.6bf4 FastEthernet0/3 vlan 20
Reviewving the show mac inter fast0/x , the mac above appears on all vlan 20 ports...but, this is not the behaviour needed.
Also, when a clear mac is made in order to clean the mac table, the comand mac-addres-table disappear from running config.
Any help should be appreciated??

Not quite enough information here...is there an ip address assigned on both switches, what VLAN? are the cables used to connect these two devices straight-thru or crossover? THe mac address will not show up (usually) until an arp is sent. Once the arp is sent, the mac-address-table can be populated. Provide the rest of the information, and I will attempt to assist you...

Hi,
Finally it was a Passport 8600 and customer wanted to connect the two supervisors to a Cat3548.
It seems that all is working fine if port is fixed to 100 full.
Thanks .
