VLAN disappeared from 2960

Level 1

I have Cisco 2960 48 ports switch

It has multiple Vlans, the issue is when i come to my office in the morning i see my switch is on orange light status,

When i connect to the switch using telnet, i see Vlan 120 is not showing and i can not connect any PC to the network through this switch

I have to create vlan 120 to resolve this issue.

All 48 ports are on vlan 120 and this is the only vlan where my PC 's are connected to the local notwork.

Can any 1 help me for this why my Vlan 120 is missing every morning? it's happening for last 2 days.

Connection to host lost.

Try using VTP mode OFF or Client.

There are other switches connected to this switch. If i off or change VTP to client then will it effect other switches?

The switch was working fine is the same state, do you know why is this happening? is it happen due to broadcast from any PC? or any PC Network card having some error / issue?

 

 

 

 

Hi

Are you using the default VTP settings? by default every switch is VTP Server, I think your VTP Domain is NULL, and the MD5 is different on each switch, so it could not be a problem.

It could be a bug or do you have any kron or automatic task, try enabling the logs to see what happend during the day. It is not a normal behavior so it could be pointing to manual manipulation, automatic task being executing each specific time or a bug. 

 

Hope it is useful

:-)

Hi,

This is basic logs related to you made changes in your switches. Please collect logs after some time or when issue will appear again.

Yes, it is ok

Now you have to wait once the event occurs again, so the switch must generate some logs and it can be analyzed to know what happened. 

 

Remember save the config:

 

enable

write memory
