Duplex mismatch between N7k and 5508

Hi All,

I met a duplex mismatch issue in our new DC.

The port configuration on the N7k and controller is the same as in other DC

Only difference is version of the NxOS on the N7k.

On N7k 5.2(1) works

On N7k 5.2(7) i get below logs :

Radoslaw,

Did you ever receive an answer to your question? If you know how to fix this issue, can you let me know? We are experiencing the same issue in our environment.

Hi Matthew,

The issue is related to bug -> "CDP duplex mismatch when using LAG on 5508 & 8510 WLC” (CSCuc94082)

The fastest way to solve (workaround) this is disable cdp on the controller by executing following command:  config cdp advertise-v2 disable

Hope this helped you

Regards,

Radek

I have the same issue between N7K and AIR-WLC4404-100-K9. I will try to disable CDP advertise on WLC.

Thanks

You can then use LLDP as a workaround to loosing CDP feature sue to the bug , it may only effect CDP feature
