Here's the way I understand it: The Active (master) switch in a stack takes on the same role as a SUP in a modular chassis, with the member switches acting as line cards. The stacking protocol functions in the same way as the backplane of a chassis, separating Control plane functions from the data plane.  As such, it is the Active switch which manages the resources for the entire stack. This much you probably already knew. In the case of specific resources such as TCAM, the Active switch can choose to distribute this function across the other switch members as it sees fit in an effort to make sure no single switch becomes overburdened. The stacking protocol makes this possible by allowing the switch chips and CPUs on the member switches to be bound together with the Active switch through the control plane. I believe this distribution function was introduced with StackWise-480 on the 3850, by the way, so the 3750X stack will not function the same way, as Daryl DeAngelis illustrated for us. It's a high-level explanation, but I hope you find it helpful. I also welcome anyone from Cisco BU to fill in holes or make corrections as necessary. ... View more

Here is a general translation: Good morning, I have a Cisco ASA 5520 with the following interfaces configured: INSIDE: 192.168.100.1 OUTSIDE: 181.49.33.66 WAN: 172.30.1.36 Also, I have a VPN configured that assigns me an IP address of a Pool of the INSIDE interface (192.168.100.10 - 192.168.100.50). The problem is that when connecting to the VPN and placing IP in the INSIDE network does not allow me to access any of this network, I do not know what additional configuration I must do, I have watched tutorials, I have tried configurations and nothing has worked. The IPs that pass through the WAN if they recognize me and I can ping without problems, but not with the computers in the INSIDE network. In my INSIDE network I have 4 VLANS, in one of them a server with IP 192.168.101.100, which is the equipment that I must access remotely through the VPN, however, it has not been possible. I thank you for your help as much as possible, thanks! I suggest someone move this post to the security community. ... View more

Looks good, Judith. Thanks for your help. ... View more

If you wish to use 10Gb speed then you will need SFP-10G-LR. This is what I would use because of the NM-10G module in the switch. The GLC SKUs are for 1Gb speed but of course are less expensive. I hope this is helpful. ... View more

The advantage license does not include server software. It is a convenient way to bundle device and/or endpoint licenses for services such as SMC, PI, etc., among other functions/features. For example if the customer doesn't have Stealthwatch currently running they will need to purchase the necessary components to make Stealthwatch operational. Then they can apply the Stealthwatch flow license which came with the CAT9K to enable flows from the CAT9K. I hope this is helpful. ... View more
