Hello all,
I am upgrading a older 2950(100M) switch replacing it with a gigabit 2960. Installed it in the same rack, the configuration is practically non-existent just set the passwords and IP. We run a single VLAN flat network for this so I started out by patching it to the existing switch, after a few days we had an opportunity to migrate because there was some downtime so I disconnected the cables on the old and moved them to the new.. Everything seemed fine, there is connectivity and things operate, but a few days later we noticed that some network transfer activities are slow. There are no errors or log entries showing on the new switch or the old one, but the low throughput is persistent.
All ports show 1G Full duplex as they should, but what I see when I test is that traffic tests look almost asynchronous when passing switch boundaries with normal read speeds and slow writes. Reversing the direction of the test hosts I get slow reads and fast writes so it seems to 'stick' to one side of the traffic path. Testing the same equipment against differente targets without the switch boundary crossing does not show the problem. All Intra-switch tests look good (gig switches transfer near a gig and 100 switches near 100), but the moment there is a crossing things behave strangely regardless of the target (new switch is center backbone with most hosts, but does no routing). Network layout is essentially a T with everything radiating from the new switch. I can eliminate the old switch soon, but I still need to resolve the problem with the crossing to the other switch.
Everything seems to point at the inter switch links. One is a patch cable under two feet, and the other is a dedicated fiber site link. We had the vendor confirm that the site link showed no issues, but having the same symptoms on both links makes me suspect the switch has something odd happening..
I checked for duplex issues first, but didn't find any. I flushed the arp caches in all of the switches (3 total) and all of the computers as well, but the problem persists.
Could this be an STP issue ? If so how can I set this switch as the STP root and force a refresh..
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Another detail.. Just dis show spanning-tree on all switches and two claim to to be the spanning-tree root. The new switch in the center is the only one that does not. Another oddity I see ist that the two directly connected switches see each other as CDP neighbors, but the one across the fiber link does not see any neighbors. IP traffic is flowing, but this has me more worried all the time.

David,
This does sound worrying.
There should only be ONE root bridge for your whole
flat vlan.
Can you share your config and a network diagram with us.
Regards,
Alex.

Hello
Can you post a topology of you network and specify the location of the old/nre switch
Also a running config of the new switch?

The network looks like this (very simple)
C2950 (Pt Fas 0/22) <---Patch---> (port Gi1/0/48) C2960G (port Gi1/0/47) <--- Fiber ---> C2960 Si (port Gi0/2)

Firewall and default gateway (Cisco 2901)
Both ends say they're STP root. CDP doesn't cross fiber (I think it's a tunnel in cisco at provider)
Below is the running config (paswords removed and repetitive elements removed). Fixed speed port(47) is fiber link, patch to 2950 is port 48.

Hello
Have you checked the cabling?
What IOS are you running?
also try this:
spanning-tree vlan 1 priority 0
spanning-tree portfast bpduguard default
ip default-gateway
access ports
switchport host
no cdp enable

Hi Paul,
Checked cabling and also had provider confirm ports weren't flapping or generating errors on either end from his side. The switches are all logging at debug level and show no problems or flapping either. Swapped ports on the far right switch, but not on the others (could only be at one site at a time).
Before trying that a question: is there a chance it would lock me out (I am remote at the moment)
Also- the gateway probably wouldn't affect it either its all a single IP subnet with private addresses roughly 30 systems.
The IOS may be an issue on the oldest switch.. here are show ver of each (slightly abridged):

Hello
"The switches are all logging at debug level and show no problems or flapping either"
If you mean debugging is enabled on the switches, please turn it off ASAP- this can a have a major effect on the switches performance
undebug all
Also the changes I have specified shouldn't have any effect on the switch or network if you say that this switch is already the STP root. - however I would suggested checking again prior to applying the config.
sh spanning-tree root
The access config is to be applied only on the access ports, if you have unauthorized switch devices attached to any of these porst then they could be errdisabled by the bpduguard feature.
Apart from I cannot see any issues.
If you dont feel comfortable doing this remotely then refrain from doing so and apply the changes when you are physically present or save you current running config and execute a timed reload prior to any changes.

Paul,
Sorry for the delay, in different timezone was going home and sleeping.
Just meant that the logging level is 7 (debugging).
Console logging: level debugging, 743 messages logged, xml disabled,
filtering disabled
Monitor logging: level debugging, 0 messages logged, xml disabled,

Buffer logging: level debugging, 743 messages logged, xml disabled,

The new switch is not the spanning tree root.. The two other switches are both claiming to be. I will try lowering the priority value on the new switch as soon as I can make a trip, I prefer to be there just in case. May go today, but worst case it will be over the weekend.
I don't have trunk mode enabled because there are no VLANs, but I was also worried by the remote switch not seeing the new switch as a CDP neighbor and also claiming to be an STP root.. IP is flowing between, but it's not what I expected to see mit looks rather like the switches don't recognize each other fully. Is that normal for a remote switch ?

Hello
Trunking doesnt matter in this case as you are correct if only the default vlan is being used.
However I dont understand what you mean by the remote switch?
Also
The new switch is not the spanning tree root.. The two other switches are both claiming to be - This is a bit concerning as isnt this new switch interconnected between these two other switches claiming to be stp root?
Can you post the following config for all 3 switches:
show spanning-tree vlan 1
(These will be the interconect links between the switchs)
sh run int xx
sh int xx
sh int xx switchport

There really isn't anything odd configured, but since CDP doesn't cross the fiber link I think it must be a q-q tunnel..

Hello
Now understand the switch on the side of the fibre is separted via a Service provider!
On the 2950 - ports fa21 & fa/22 are these both connected to the central switch?

Paul,
No, the older switch has three hosts on it and the patch to the new one. I am hoping to eliminate the old switch completely soon. That may resolve the problem as well, but since I can't do it right away I was trying to pin down the cause and resolve it before making another change to the topology.

Hello
Is it possible to relocate the 2950 connection over to one of its two gig interfaces instead of using a FE port?
and apply the confg I previously posted to the 2960

Paul,
Unfortunately I can't. Old 2950 is a 24 port FastEthernet only model, no Gig ports or GBIC slots. I will try the config change on the new 2960 when I go to the site in the afternoon to see if that helps the slow traffic issue.
Thanks.
