2960g connection issue

Hi,

I have a 2960 connected to a 3560 at 100/full. The port shows up w/ errors but I cannot ping the vlan on the 2960.

Auto mdix is on. Any thoughts?

Thanks

In addition, the 3560 port stat's showing a large amount of packets with errors. I already swapped out the cables but didnt help.

Sudip,

Multple VLAN's? Is trunking setup? Please provide a little more info.

sho run

sho int

sho int stat

sho int trunk

When I set Speed and Duplex to auto, the port status is UP (connects at 100/half). Any other combo (100/auto or auto/Full, etc) results in the port to be down.

Here is the sho int:

The port will show down with anything other than auto for speed and duplex because you are using mdix which only works when the port is set as auto . If you want to hardcode the speeds and duplex then you will have to get a crossover cable to go to the other switch. If using mdix then set "both" ends as auto and it should negotiate ok .

This has been resolved. We did not specify the encapsulation type.

Thanks everyone.
