Nexus 6001 initial setup

[ericescoto]

Hello, We recently purchased a Nexus 6001 and as far as the basic configuration goes It is complete, the switch can ping and be pinged within the network, I can ssh into it and i can see it when running ip scanners however, any computer or server I have plugged into the SFP ports do not have internet connectivity , If i enter in show int stat and show run it all seems that it is working but I cant get out to the internet. I only need the switch to work layer 2. If there is anything you can do to help me out or guide me where I am going wrong id appreciate it greatly. Ahead of time thank you. I am including the show run and show int stat results:

Hi,

To what port you are connecting a PC/laptop for testing?

What vlan the PC/laptop is part of?

Is the 6k supposed to be the vlan/subnet gateway?

What is the IP for that vlan?

HTH

[ericescoto]

Hello Reza, Port eth1/3, the vlan is 1 and the ip is 10.10.1.195 255.255.255.0

Is there something else that I am missing? Thank you again for your time

[Reza Sharifi]

Hi,

The PC/laptop is connected to port e1/3 and the IP is 10.10.1.195 255.255.255.0

Ok, So, where is the gateway for the PC/laptop?  Is the gateway supposed to be the 6k?

The gateway IP needs to be in the same subnet as the PC.

HTH

[ericescoto]

Hello the gateway is the router that is IP 10.10.1.1 yes the subnet is a /24 all the way around

Now sure what port your internet facing router connected

in general, this should be like this :

PC --- ethe 1/3 ----Ether 1/2----Internet router(NATtting) ----ISP

interface Ethernet1/3
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1  <-- this need to switch mode access.(if you connecting PC)

what port your internet router connected ?

[ericescoto]

Hello and thank you for your help, the Nexus switch is getting it's data
from another switch plugged into the mgmt0 port and you're saying I should
change eth1/3 to switch mode access?

[balaji.bandi · Accepted solution]

If you getting the Data from another switch.

Then you should connect to any of the nexus ethernet port (not management - this meant to be management port)

PC --- ethe 1/3 ----Ether 1/2----other siwtch

inter eth 1/3

description PC connected

switchport mode access  (if you not mentioned any VLAN this means default is VLAN1)

inter eth 1/2

description uplink Data switch   <--here is your other data switch connection goes.

switchport mode trunk

hope this suppose to works as per your post description.

[ericescoto]

Thank you, Did it this morning received IP and traffic immediately. Able to get out to the internet.

Hello

You dont need a trunk to connect to a interface ruining a single vlan, Just use a access port

interface Ethernet1/3

switchport mode access
spanning-tree portfast
switchport nonegociate

[ericescoto]

Hello Paul, thanks for your help I have made the changes with still no internet on the connected PC.

[Reza Sharifi]

Can you post a diagram of your network  and show what device is doing the routing or what device is the gateway for your user subnet?
