Hi,
I'm struggling with download of a config file from a serverlocation to a 3560 switch. I recieved a new switch and configured it manually. Ahtis this succesfull action and tested the config, I uploaded this config using TFTP to a server location. I clreaed the config on this switch ( reset to factory), connected the switch with a LAN port to the network, booted up the switch, connected via console to the switch and downloaded the saved config from server location to the switch using TFTP. All seems to be ok, but when I connect the switch with fiber to the network, Fiber is OK but all LAN ports are AMBER.
speed and duplew set to auto,no shutdown, same problem
anyone some ideas

Hi,
What type of interface is that port , check that is capable of Fibre optic(Gigaethernet). Also check your fibre as well.It could be the configuration you upload from TFTP Server has different interface as what you have now.Are the switch the same model?

Hi,
all ports are fastethernet ports directly connected to PC
Gigabit ports are working fine

Did u tried show interface and analyze the data

Werner,
Have you created the layer 2 VLAN on the switch?
switch#conf t
switch(config)#vlan 2
HTH,
Mark

interface FastEthernet0/41

this config I entered first manually and this works.
Only when I install the config using TFTP I have the problem

Add the following to your TFTP config.
vlan 2
name User VLAN
If this does not help, please post your TFTP config.

As suggested by Mark check have you created vlan2 before you assign port to that vlan.
Light is amber when STP is blocking . Can you check is spanning tree is blocking ur ports
12-10-2008 01:20 AM
conf t VLAN 2
int vlan 2
description user - vlan 2 backbone
No ip address
same problem
sh spanning-tree blockedports
no ports blocked
can you tell me what need to be configured for TFTP? Is this realy needed as i can download the complete config from tftp server.
just asking as I'm not so familar with this.
12-10-2008 06:48 AM
There shouldn't be anything special to configure the switch from TFTP. Are you able to post the TFTP config?
Mark
12-10-2008 07:23 AM
do you mean the configuration that will be downloaded by TFTP
for the moment when entering after reboot switch
conf t
Vlan 2
no shutdown
it works
12-10-2008 07:30 AM
Yes the configuration downloaded by TFTP. If that is the solution that works for you just add "no shutdown" under VLAN 2 on your TFTP configuration.
12-10-2008 07:57 AM
I entered the command no shutdown for vlan 2
and ports are working
did then a copy run to start
uploaded config to server with TFTP
Copy system:/running-config tftp://........B
Copy startup-config tftp://........S
downloaded the running config using TFTP to the switch same problem after manually no shutdown" under VLAN 2 it's working
reseted the switch
downloaded the startup config using TFTP to the switch same problem after manually "no shutdown" under VLAN 2 it's working
