New switch not working correctly

Dholland64 · ‎01-31-2012

I have a Catalyst 3750 switch configured in a network. I would like an additional 3750 switch as a "hot" standby.

A 2nd 3750 switch was purchased, and the same configuration was entered in to the new switch, so I have 2 switches with the exact same configuration.

When I move the connections to the new switch, I have a few VLANs that do not come up. One VLAN does come up and work normally.

The VLANs in question show down, protocol down, and a show ip route reveals routes to the networks on these VLANs are not there

When I put everything back on the original switch, everything works normally.

Why would the new switch not work with the exact same configuration?

For the Vlan's to come up , you have to have atleast one port on that vlan which is in up state or atleast this vlan should be in the allowed list in the trunk link between the switches.

can you pls share the configs ?

Here is the config. In this case, when I move over the connections, VLAN2 comes up and is operational, but 3-10 do not come up. I believe VLAN12 came up as well

Why don't you just Stack them together?

Dholland64 · ‎02-02-2012

The issue is resolved.

When the configuration was copied from the old switch, the virtual VLAN interfaces were created, however not all of the VLANs themselves were created. Creating the missing VLANs solved the problem

bikespace · ‎02-02-2012

You need to create the vlan database (not shown in the config).

If you do a show vlan you will see which ones are active.

just type vlan 2 name blah blah blah for each vlan.

Edit: Ah, I see you already got there :-)
