I installed a Cisco SG200-26 Gigabit Switch at a customer's facility. They have some severe latency on their network, so I hoped the switches reporting abilities would help me track down the problem. There are 7 white box computers on the switch. ...
Hope someone can help me on this. I'm out of ideas. A client has an ASA 5505 with a base license. The version information and configuration is attached. In 8 hours, sometimes less and infrequently more, it becomes inaccessible. All connections a...
My client purchased a SG 300-28 and a SF 300-24P three months ago. The SF 300-24P is awaiting IP phones and has only one computer connected. The SG 300-28 is full. No VLAN's are setup yet, but that will happen later when the phones are installed....
Anyone know what the power consumption in watts is for the SPA 504G? I am proposing a Cisco SF300-24P PoE network switch for a voice installation and I want to be sure all the ports will be available for the PoE phone connections. The switch specs ...
I just installed a new SR520-FE-K9 at a customer's business. I can't see anyway in CCA 2.1 to configure a pass through PPTP VPN to their Windows 2003 server, which acts as the VPN server. You can easily configure port forwarding for port 1723 to th...
While the cable itself certainly can be the problem, I sort of ruled that out when I carried one computer to the equipment room and connected it directly to the switch with a 5' network cable that was used on the one older computer where the open cab...
As a matter of fact, you are correct. The client does not have a patch panel. This is a live, production network that was cabled years before they called me in to manage it. I hate the way it is setup and in particular the absence of a patch panel...
Thank you for your reply. I did contact Cisco support and they agree with you. The switch should not be doing what it is doing with the copper test. They don't have an answer, but I am pursuing it and a case is open.
Was there ever a final resolution to this and if so, what was it? A client of mine has an identical problem. Their ISP is Verizon FIOS who is notorius for their poor technical support in matters like this. If it turns out to be a downstream Verizo...
Here is some additional information on the issue detailed here. The disconnects are still happening. This morning while the ASA was inaccessible, I initiated a console session with the ASA, cleared ARP and pinged the WAN gateway. This is a FIOS co...
