Hi All,
I have faced a problem with configuring Cisco 3750G series switches as Sever farm switches with redudance. i have attaced basic connectivity diagram with this..
I
Switch model -
WS-C3750G-24T
IOS -
C3750-IPSERVICES-M
servers have 2NIC (1GBps) and both are bridged for redundant connections.
In both switches all ports get green coluor except one port on Secondary SW. I saw some Spanning tree block port status on that switch .. I thougt that is normal behavior ...
when i type Show cdp neghbor command on switch i can see other switch through a server connected port. Also Spannig tree root bridge election is occured through that port . Simply i need to configure both switches to pass traffic through there uplinks them selves.. but it seems like Secondry switch pass its traffic through primary switch ( i think according to STP ) using interconnection of bridge port of a server. Is there any possibilty for eliminate this..pls help me find out this thing.
Here are some captures ..
