I have a "public" network that we use to test our websites and other stuff from an "outside" network. This is just a cable modem attached to a 5506 and then a switch. From this network we regularly test our enterprise network and firewall. The proble...
I am having an issue where a switch I have won't give up root. The switch I want to be root I set at a priority of 4096, and set the priority of the switch that I don't want to be root at 20480. However the switch at 20480 still thinks that it is roo...
We currently use an older version of DCNM which is installed on a windows server to manage our Fabric switches. This version of DCNM either doesn't need a license or just has never had one installed. We need to upgrade our switches and this version o...
I attempted to upgrade single switch using the archive-sw /overwrite command. The new firmware appears to have installed and there is room on the flash.However when it boots it doesn't "see" any of the interfaces or the config. I get the following er...
Thanks for that information - It's not meant to be secondary either! I have a separate router that is secondary. I used the secondary tag on that one and set the priority at 8192.
I still don't know why it wasn't picking up the BPDUs before, but it...

The nexus is mean to be primary - which is why it's manually set at 4096.
The 2960 is meant to be secondary - it was manually set at 20632 so it would be lower than the Nexus, but higher than any default switch that might get plugged in (sneaky user...
