User Tracking in LMS 2.5 is not discovering the IP addresses and host names of the hosts. Is this because our switches are configured for VTP Transparent?
What is the recommended way to configure VTP on a LAN? I have 250 2900XL/3500XL/2950s and 4 6509/5500s running 12 VLANs. Should the 6509/5500s be configured as VTP servers and the rest as transparent, with newly installed switches only configured a...
Have set up a FastEthernet dot1q trunk between a 6509 and a 3524xl. When I enter "sh vlan" on the 3524xl I do not see all the active vlans configured on the 6509. A 2950 connected to the 6509 over a Gigabit trunk will display all active vlans when ...
I am currently configuring the routing interfaces on 6500 MSFCs. When a standby IP is added to an interface how does the router know how you are subnetting the IP ranges? For instance if I enter 10.10.10.1 as a standby IP how does it know whether I...
We currently have a 6509 connected to a 5500 which is in turn connected to a 7000 router. Current LAN is switched through 6509 and 5500. 6509 and 5500 connected together via EtherChannel. All routing is performed by the 7000 with the link to the f...
Kevin, I am leaning towards your suggestion of client/server. It was just that elsewhere some people have recommended not using VTP at all because of the problems it can cause.
OK, thanks. Currently the LAN (which I inherited) has a mixture of VTP domains/modes. I would like to clean it up but am unsure of which way to go. Do I use the VTP client/server model or use VTP transparent throughout the LAN? There is not a nee...
"But I don't understand your idea "newly installed switches only configured as clients to pick up the existing VLANs and then set in transparent mode". What's the advantage? Your transparent switches would lose any VLAN change made in the future... "...
