Trunk and active vlans. plus VTP configuration.

Alexey Shvarev
Level 1
Level 1

Hello All,

sorry for my english.

I have to swithces 4506(also as a router between switches) and 3750 connected by trunk. I wanted to replace 3750 with 3750G model. so i coppyed config from old one to new and cheked the port's names and configuration to be currect. So after sturtup it doesnt work curectly. i don't know why but command show interfaces port-channel 1 trunk  returns me this result for the new switch.

show interfaces port-channel 1 trunk

Port        Mode             Encapsulation  Status        Native vlan

Po1         on               802.1q         trunking      254


Port        Vlans allowed on trunk

Po1                 3,112,144-145,160-161,176-177,192-193,208-209,216-217,224-225,243,247,253-254


Port                Vlans allowed and active in management domain

Po1                 161


Port                Vlans in spanning tree forwarding state and not pruned

Po1                 161

i don't undestand why only one VLAN allowed and active. the old 3750 works fine. all allowed vlans are active on old one. Plroblem is that 161 is a access VLAN configured on almost all ports on 3750 switch, also there is voice vlan on all ports - 177. But i can't see it as active. What I have after power on new switch - phones are started, and even recived IP by DHCP (ip helper configured for all vlans on 4506 switch - it is also router between VLANs), but i can't see or ping any other vlans from it. i can see whole netwotk only from 161 VLAN. so phones are not registered.
the same command for 4506 returns this: (and the same result for old 3750 with only one differance in a last line)
What i'm doing wrong? please advise!
thsnks
Alexey.
sorry again for my English, i'm new here.

   The port channel trunk is not working correctly , thus vtp is not propagating the vlan information the way it should.  To help you will probably have to post the port channel configuration from both sides along with the port setup in the port channel . A show vtp status would help.  That is one of th issues when forcing on a portchannel or trunk , as long as you  have a physical link it will show the links as trunking when they might not be .   Verify each side matches exactly on each side for the port channel SVI ,  port settings in the channel, and the trunk parameters .  Also check to see if there is any vtp password being used , if so that also has to match .  Does the new 3750 have to be a server or can it be a client .  You should have 2 servers in any vtp setup but the rest should be clients...

Hi, thanks for quick replay.

The problem is that it is working on old 3750. As I told I've coppyed config one to one to the new 3750G, only changed interfaces from FE to GE. And it is not working on new...

So, it looks from main switch-router 4506 everything fine. At least should be.

configs for PChannel and interfaces below.

I have a question, is VTP configuration keeped in config file or not? i couldn't find any configuration for VTP (client or server, or any, only domain name. also no password for VTP domain used)

Unfourtunataly I had to rollback all changes, so all commands for 4506 have run on working infrustructure - 4506+old3750.

also vtp status commands looks different on old and new 3750. Probably HW or IOS differance.

let me know if I need to grab anything else.

   Did the etherchannel come up correctly when you tried to bring it up ? As you are trying to negotiate the port channel  you could verify with "show etherchannel summory or show etherchannel detail to see if it aggregated the ports correctly. When bringing up the port channel make sure to bring up both ports at the same time , don't try to bring up one at a time , this sometimes leads to unpredictable results.  If it did not it will usually give you an indication in the logs themselves why it did not bundle them.  The vtp information will not show up when the switch is in server or client mode , it does show up if you run the connections in transparent mode .  VTP info is stored in the vlan.dat file. I see vtp pruning is off on the 3750 side and on for 4506 , not sure if this makes any difference or not . Other than that I do not see anything really that jumps out that is incorrect in your config . I normally run "channel-group X mode desirable non-silent" between cisco boxes but the way you have it should work fine also.
