IP SLA on 6509

scottdean · ‎06-22-2010

I need to activate IP SLA on my 6509 switch. I ran "sh ip sla?" and I did not see IP SLA on my switch. Problem is I went to download the latest IOS that has IP SLA and figured I would check my current IOS against the latest and according to the Cisco softare advisor my IOS has IP SLA. I had no problems loading and configuring IP SLA on my 3750's, and it was already loaded on my routers. So what am I missing here? I would perfer not to reload the IOS on my 6509.

IOS - s72033_rp-IPSERVICES_WAN-M Version 12.2(18)SXF10

I was also thinking that IP Sevices even though it shows that it has IP SLA as part of the build really does not support the function. All my other devices I am running the Advance IP Service IOS and I have no problems.

Hello

I hit this issue today (with fx11).

Found this on the solarwinds website.....

For the 6509 series of switches the operation mode needs to be set to Native as opposed to Hybrid. If the switch is set to Hybrid the IP SLA commands will not be recognized even if the proper IOS and feature set are installed.

Although I have IOS, and still no IP sla....

Update: found out the old syntax was "rtr" instead of 'ip sla"
