Unsupported commands

[s.hellman]

It seems that neighter "set ip default" or "set ip next-hop" is supported on my Catalyst 3550 sw/v 12.1(12c)EA1. Is this correct?

Hello,

AFAIK, before you can enable policy routing, you must configure one of these commands in the global configuration mode, and then the configuration must be written and the switch reloaded:

sdm prefer extended-match

sdm prefer access extended-match

sdm prefer routing extended-match

HTH,

Georg

Milan,

so entering the "sdm prefer" -command wont help since the "set ip default" and "set ip next-hop" isnt supported?

What do they mean with this page:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk364/tk871/technologies_configuration_example09186a00802135d3.shtml

where the commands are included in rhe example for C3550?

Just to answer your question about the page you posted, the Cat3550 IOS version in that

example is 12.1(19)EA1a, which already supports the command "set ip next-hop".

It is documented here:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/c3550/12119ea1/3550scg/swuncli.htm#1014499

The command "set ip default next-hop" is still unsupported up to the latest IOS version.

As Milan had mentioned, please compare the old IOS releases with the new ones to check any new features or solved caveats. I think it's time to upgrade your IOS.
