Hello. I need to implement the command  "power  redundancy-mode redundant" on my 7K. I have enough power and supplies etc that I should be OK with doing it. But what I cant find is if the chassis needs a reload after this command? Bob ... View more

Hi everyone. I am monitoring a 3064 Nexus chassis with SNMP, and I am always getting "interface discards in" on one of the port channels. However this is normal due to an ACL in place. When I look at PO1 it shows the discards:  RX     37188296587 unicast packets  15658390 multicast packets  4135451 broadcast packets     37208090428 input packets  198650275947699 bytes     22814881037 jumbo packets  0 storm suppression packets     0 giants  0 input error  0 short frame  0 overrun   0 underrun     0 watchdog  0 if down drop     0 input with dribble  50955 input discard(includes ACL drops)     0 Rx pause This is my snmp config: HOSTNAME# sho run | in snmp ip access-list copp-system-acl-snmp   10 permit udp any any eq snmp   20 permit udp any any eq snmptrap class-map type control-plane match-any copp-snmp   match access-group name copp-system-acl-snmp   class copp-snmp snmp-server contact ESPN Network Support Services 888-290-3776 #4 snmp-server location  Building 13 1S snmp-server source-interface trap loopback0 snmp-server user admin network-admin auth md5 0xea49bc25cfe6833ea510178d650149ec priv 0xea49bc25cfe6833ea510178d650149ec localizedkey snmp-server user Manager network-admin auth md5 0xea49bc25cfe6833ea510178d650149ec priv 0xea49bc25cfe6833ea510178d650149ec localizedkey snmp-server user Manager network-operator snmp-server host 10.78.99.223 traps version 1 ciku#0 snmp-server host 172.22.2.69 traps version 1 ciku#0 snmp-server host 10.76.2.6 traps version 2c ciku#0 snmp-server host 10.76.2.6 use-vrf default snmp-server host 172.22.2.92 traps version 2c ciku#0 snmp-server host 172.22.2.92 use-vrf default snmp-server enable traps ospf snmp-server enable traps bridge topologychange snmp-server enable traps bridge newroot snmp-server enable traps callhome event-notify snmp-server enable traps callhome smtp-send-fail snmp-server enable traps aaa server-state-change snmp-server enable traps snmp authentication snmp-server community Mazu8383 group network-operator snmp-server community ciku#0 group network-operator snmp-server community Mazu8383 use-acl 1 snmp-server community ciku#0 use-acl 2 And this is my sho ver sho ver Cisco Nexus Operating System (NX-OS) Software TAC support: http://www.cisco.com/tac Copyright (c) 2002-2013, Cisco Systems, Inc.

Good morning. Our company is facing a slight dilemma. All our installs seize an outside line using 9, then a 10 digit number. Now I am told that in Maine, the law will be that users must dial 911 directly, not 9,911 like they currently do.  My question is, can we use *? I know we cant use #.  Or are there any other recommendations? The problem with using another number is they are also taken for internal locations. Bob ... View more

Hi there. We are currently running cm 6.x, but are in the middle of an upgrade to 8.x. meanwhile I have to keep the old system running.  Yesterday we had a pub failure, and all our agents were unable to log in because the 'services' button wasnt working.  I figure "no problem" and go to the sub, enterprise parameters and change the services url to be the address of the sub.  No can do. Cant make changes to the sub, only the pub can and of course that was in flames, never to be resurrected again. So my question is, how do I make the services url be failover as well?  DNS? (ouch) other? Thanks for any tips! Bob ... View more

Hi there. I have a router on my WAN that is showing a bunch of these errors and Im not sure what they mean. I searched here and on the internet and found nothing significant.  I dont THINK im having any issues at that location (at least not that I know of), I just want to understand what these might mean. Thank you!
