sh vlan brief not showing correct vlan info

[klx400]

Hi,

I have a 3750G-24T connected to a C3550-48.

VLAN trunking has been setup on the 3550 switch, but on the 3750G, I cannot see the configured VLANs that the rest of our network sees. All I can see is the default vlan info. I have done this a gazillion times before, so I don't know what I have missed this time....

Here is the config:

c3750G

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1

description Connected to *** port fa0/29 c3550

interface Vlan2

ip address 10.250.1.42 255.255.255.0

ip default-gateway 10.250.1.254

ip classless

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.250.1.254

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1 on the 3750 is not configured as a trunk.

If you want it to be a trunk, which I assume you do, try;

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport mode trunk

Hope this helps

d-fillmore,

By default, aren't all ports set to dynamic desirable? And if so, wouldn't the 3750 negotiate a trunk with the other switch? Since the original poster didn't post that part of the config, I assumed it was left as default. If that's not the case, I apologize. BTW, I also like to force trunk ports to trunk and turn off all negotiation. It prevents weird things from happening. :)

To the original poster, verify that there is a trunk (I agree with d-fillmore; force it to trunk) and check your VTP mode, domain, and password on the 3750.

FYI - I have another setup which is pretty much identical, and I have only setup trunking on one switch and left the other end without trunking. The only difference is both of the switches are C3550-48's. These two connections have always worked fine.

Switch 1

interface FastEthernet0/1

Switch 2

interface FastEthernet0/47
