Hi,We are planning a multicast video network comprising of a pair of Catalyst 6500s in the core, and fiber optic access rings with Catalyst 2960s (VLAN traffic separation) to connect the camera feeds (approx. 200 MPEG-4 streams). Recorders and displ...
Hi,I'm trying to set up dot1x with MAC authentication bypass (MAB) on a C3560, and I want the switch to send a SNMP trap upon authentication failure.Q: Can port security and MAB be combined in this way?-Leo
I was thinking about ASIC performance when using IGMP snooping v1/2: is the ASIC of C2960 handling multicast traffic in a Layer 3 manner?Maybe I need a C3560 to maintain throughput.Thanks,Leo
Thank you for your quick answer !I need to aggregate and terminate approx. 200 multicast streams into three servers with optical gig interface so my plan was to stack the C3750G with a -12S.I was told this switch family cannot do the job and should a...
Hi Ankur,Do you mean the multicast traffic should hit the trunk port of the 2960?(Only the cameras will be connected to the 2960 - the recorders will be at the core switches.)Best ones,Leo
Thanks for your reply.The streams from the cameras could be either unicast or multicast. And if we go for multicast, they say the 2960 will flood all "camera VLAN" ports.Does it make sense?Thanks,Leo
No, I have not.My intention was to test the concept: can the switch send a trap when a Radius-reject is received?Will it be possible to define such a (security violation) action together with dot1x?Thanks Leo
