Problems with dot1q trunk between 6509 (CatOS) and 3524XL

I am having a problem with dot1q between a 6509 running CatOS 6.1, and a 3524XL.

Both sides are using vlan1 as the native vlan. The trunk ooks properly formed, and vlan pruning is also functioning properly.

I cannot ping form the 3524 to the default GW conigured on the switch. From a router in vlan 1, the arp entry for the IP configure on the switch shows incomplete. Using ISL everything works fine.

I am testing this 3524 using dot1q because I have a 2950 that supports only dot1q, and have the same problem with it.

Config:

#module 1 : 2-port 1000BaseX Supervisor

set udld enable 1/2

set trunk 1/1 on isl 1-1005,1025-4094

set trunk 1/2 nonegotiate dot1q 1-1005,1025-4094

interface GigabitEthernet0/2

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport mode trunk

end

MilA3cat1> (enable) sh trunk 1/2

ISL trunks for fine.I am currently testing with a 3524 using dot1q

Any ideas?

Thanks,

If two switches are in different VTP domains and trunking is desired between them, you must configure the trunk mode as ON or NONEGOTIATE on both sides in order to allow the trunk to come up without DTP negotiation agreement. In other words, this setting forces the link to be a trunk link.

The trunk port on the Cat6509 side is already set to nonnegotiate.

The switches are in the same VTP domain as well.

The trunk seems to come up fine. It's just that I cannot access the IP configured for management, which is vlan 1.

Just in case someone stumbles across this.

Someone had configured:

set dot1q-all-tagged enable

on the 6509. This causes all native (untagged)packets to be dropped, so any communication over vlan 1, which is our management vlan, were dropped. This explains why all other vlan traffci was uneffected.

resolution is: set dot1q-all-teagged disable

which is the default.
