Cat6500 conversion from hybrid to native

[jeff.vargas]

Is there a tool that will covert your existing supervisor configuration to a native IOS configuration?

This tool does not seem to be working at least over the last 5 days.

I have tried to upload and convert 8.3 catos config, and also tried cutting and pasting in the conversion box.

Browser status says: Opening page http://...catcfg_xlat.pl..

But conversion never happens, browser just times out.

Anyone else having problems?

Yes, I had the same problem. I finally wrote a perl script to do the port-level configuration because I had a ton of ports. Adjust as you see fit:

open (PORTS,"sw2.txt");

open (NEWSW1,">sw2-new.txt");

@ports = ;

foreach (@ports) {

($port,$desc,$conn,$vlan) = /(\d+\/\d+)\s+(.*)\s+(connected|notconnect)\s+(\d+)\s+/;

if ($conn) {

print NEWSW1

"interface g$port\n desc $desc\n switchport host\n switchport access vlan $vlan\n no shutdown\n";

}

}

Please be aware that not all configs will convert properly with this tool You might want to understand equivalent commands under each OS before you do the migration.
