3750-X to 2960-X strange PortChannel behaviour

Adi Arslanagic
Level 1
Level 1

Hello,

We have a problem with stacked 2x 3750-X's ethernet links bundled to port channel to 2960-X access switches (there are multiple of 2960-X's).

The setup is as follows:

Cat3750-X_1 GE 1/0/3 <--------> Cat2960-X GE 1/0/47

Cat3750-X_2 GE 2/0/3 <--------> Cat2960-X GE 1/0/48

Configuration:

3750-X side:

!

interface Port-channel23

description Trunk to sw-access3

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport mode trunk

switchport nonegotiate

end

!

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/3

description Trunk to sw-access3

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport mode trunk

switchport nonegotiate

channel-group 23 mode active

end

!

interface GigabitEthernet2/0/3

description Trunk to sw-access3

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport mode trunk

switchport nonegotiate

channel-group 23 mode active

end

2960-X side:

!

interface Port-channel1

description Trunk sw-core

switchport mode trunk

switchport nonegotiate

end

!

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/47

description Trunk sw-core

switchport mode trunk

switchport nonegotiate

channel-group 1 mode active

end

!

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/48

description Trunk sw-core

switchport mode trunk

switchport nonegotiate

channel-group 1 mode active

end

Port Channel config to the other 3 access switches is identical.

Everything was working great for the last 5 weeks and now we have these problems:

Adi,

The updated logs about the flapping MAC very strongly suggest that a switching loop exists in your network. I wonder why STP has not prevented it from occuring. Is there perhaps some server, perhaps MS Windows, using aggregated links? Sometimes a misconfigured station with multiple NICs can cause switching loops (if some kind of bridging or link bundling is activated on it).

Best regards,

Peter

Hi Adi,

This is an interesting issue. May I ask you a couple of questions?

  1. Does this happen between the 3750 and all 2960, or is this problem limited just to a particular 2960?
  2. What STP version are you running on these switches? In particular, can you verify if any ports are identified as inconsistent by show spanning-tree inconsistent command?
  3. What is the aging time for MAC addresses on your switches? Can you verify on all switches using the show mac address-table aging-time if the aging time is set to the default of 300 seconds?
  4. Can you verify if any switch in your topology happens to have the no mac address-table learning vlan command configured? Alternatively, use the show mac address-table learning command on all switches to make sure that the MAC learning is activated (reported as "yes") on all VLANs
  5. Are you absolutely sure there is no loop in your network whatsoever that would not be blocked by STP?
  6. As a last resort, would rebooting the affected 2960 and 3750 help? I understand this may not be possible to accomplish in your production network.

The loopback error you are seeing is caused by a port receiving its own LOOP frames that are sent each 10 seconds. Normally, this should never happen because a correctly behaved neighboring switch would never send a frame back through the port it came in. However, if the MAC learning is disabled, or if there is an unblocked loop in the network, the frame may eventually loop back to the port where it was originated. Such a port will be err-disabled. I am therefore looking for any reason that would allow the LOOP frame to get back to its originating port.

Best regards,

Peter

Try using "channel-group # mode ON".

What IOS are you using for both the 3750X and 2960X?

Hi,

I know portchannles are locally significant and it shouldn't matter that you have po23 on the 3750s and po1 on the 2960s, but just to eliminate the portchannel id inconsistencies, can you configure both the 3750s and 2960 with the same po id and test again?

Also, what if you configure one side as active and one side as passive?

HTH

Leo and Reza,

Thanks for joining but I respectfully disagree with both suggestions. I am afraid neither of them will help. Please don't take the following lines as bashing any of you - nothing could be farther from me. It is just me speaking out my thoughts so you can correct me if I am wrong at any point.

Reza, just as you mentioned: the Port-channel ID is purely a local number and is never transmitted to a neighbor. In addition, the 2960 may not support the same range of Port-channel IDs as the 3750, so making the Port-channel ID identical on both switches may not be possible. I see no way, based on the knowledge how EtherChannel and LACP/PAgP operate, how the change of Port-channel ID could have an impact. Configuring one side as active and the other as passive will have no influence as the active side will nevertheless make the passive side engage into creating an EtherChannel.

Leo, I have always strongly opposed and disagreed with the use of channel-group mode on unless absolutely and vitally necessary. I have went long and far on CSC to explain why I consider this mode of EtherChannel operation to be dangerous. It has its own set of failure scenarios that can compound the issue we are trying to solve here. This command could theoretically have an impact only if one switch was considering the ports as bundled while the other did not. I believe we should investigate the state of EtherChannel using show etherchannel summary before making this - in my humble opinion - dangerous change.

Best regards,

Peter

Thanks Peter.

Last night I effectivly broke the PortChannels by removing one link, thus leaving only one link active (here is the view from access switch):

sw-access3#sh etherchannel summary

Flags:  D - down        P - bundled in port-channel

        I - stand-alone s - suspended

        H - Hot-standby (LACP only)

        R - Layer3      S - Layer2

        U - in use      f - failed to allocate aggregator

        M - not in use, minimum links not met

        u - unsuitable for bundling

        w - waiting to be aggregated

        d - default port

Number of channel-groups in use: 1

Number of aggregators:           1

Group  Port-channel  Protocol    Ports

------+-------------+-----------+-----------------------------------------------

1      Po1(SU)         LACP      Gi1/0/47(P)

sw-access3#sh spanning-tree root

                                        Root    Hello Max Fwd

Vlan                   Root ID          Cost    Time  Age Dly  Root Port

---------------- -------------------- --------- ----- --- ---  ------------

VLAN0001          4097 7c69.f6a2.5480         4    2   20  15  Gi1/0/48

VLAN0005          4101 7c69.f6a2.5480         4    2   20  15  Gi1/0/48

...

so the one standalone port is now STP root port, and the one in the PortChannel is Alternate.

2. STP version is RSTP and no ports are in inconsistent state at any switch

3. MAC address aging time is the default of 300 seconds throughout the network

4. All switches are learning on all the vlans

5. I'm sure there are no loops (at least when I was there last time (this is customers network)) but will double check!

6. We may try this as a last option tonight if we don't figure it out

@Leo

IOS versions are:

3750-X's: 15.0(2)SE4

2960-X's: 15.0(2)EX1

Stock that came with the switches, I've checked the IOS, there are some newer revisions but no mention of similar problems so no plan yet for SW upgrade.

I'm strongly against static port-channels and I'm not considering using them, and since I've broken the PortChannels last night and the same problem is happening, seems it's not the cause.

@Reza:

I've had too many configurations that use inconsistent PC id's to think that could be the problem, and again

since I've broken the PortChannels last night and the same problem is happening, seems it's not the cause.

Currently thinking that this is a Layer 1 problem, will investigate cabeling first.

Thanks guys!

Adi

Hello,

As Peter stated earlier, the error messages seem to be because these keepalive frames are being received back by the switch that originated it (the 3750-X in this case).

These 'LOOP' frames are quite interesting in how they are built - they are sent to and from the local mac-address of the switch originating it and they are not meant to be forwarded by the receiving switch. The adjacent, receiving switch should simply consume the frame and not pass it on.

Apart from all of what Peter suggested, I would also recommend enabling mac-move notifications. This should help determine any loops in the layer 2 topology. I'd also suggest to rule out any high CPU problems on the switches - if the CPU is pegged, the frame might not be consumed and could be wrongly forwarded instead. This is just a theory, I have not really seen this happen in my experience yet.

Aninda

Adi,

The updated logs about the flapping MAC very strongly suggest that a switching loop exists in your network. I wonder why STP has not prevented it from occuring. Is there perhaps some server, perhaps MS Windows, using aggregated links? Sometimes a misconfigured station with multiple NICs can cause switching loops (if some kind of bridging or link bundling is activated on it).

Best regards,

Peter

Currently thinking that this is a Layer 1 problem, will investigate cabeling first.

Adi,

If you think this is a Layer 1 issue, can you post the output to the command "sh interface " of both links to both switches.

Another thing, do you have any other switch models (like a 2960S)?  The reason why I ask is because this is beginning to smell like an IOS bug.  Everything you are doing (with Peter's help) is right.  It just doesn't make any sense.  If you have a switch that is capable of loading IOS version 12.2(55)SE8 or 15.0(2)SE4 then I'd be keen to know what the behaviour is like.  Same cable going to the 3750X, same ports.  The only thing different is the IOS version.  EXn-series IOS is an interim version software.

Best Regards,

Adi
