IP device tracking

ross_rulz
Level 1
Level 1

Hi,

We have Cisco 3850 switches and we dont use dot1x but we need to turn off ip device tracking but when I do it from global config mode it pops up the below error:

Switch(config)#no ip device tracking        

% IP device tracking is disabled at the interface level by removing the relevant configs

I've tried disabling it under interface mode even though we don use it.

Can someone please show me how to disable it globally?

Thanks.

Hi Ross,

This is a known issue that we are continually working towards a resoltuion.  To solve your issue, please run the following at the interface level.

switch(config)# int range gig1/0/1 - 24

switch(config-if)# nmsp attach suppress

end

Unfortunalty we cannot do this globally, so we have to do it at the port level.  Again, we are working on a better solution in an upcoming release, but this will solve your issue for now.

PS. version 3.3 is released for the 3850 (major release)

I've tried disabling it under interface mode even though we don use it.

Go to the interface and do "no ip device track max ".  If you can't delete it, you will have to issue the command "default interface ".

We dont use the " ip device track max " under the interface mode. We dont use device tracking it is only on by default with the new switch when it came out of the box from Cisco.

Here is a sample of our interface config:

interface GigabitEthernet2/0/22

description --- User/IP Phone Connection ---

switchport access vlan 18

switchport mode access

switchport voice vlan 209

trust device cisco-phone

spanning-tree portfast

service-policy input VoIP

Any ideas?

To remove IP Device Tracking from an interface, use the command "ip device tracking max 0".

Thanks but I tried the above command and "0" is not available. See below what is available:

SW(config-if)#ip device tracking max ?

  <1-10>  Maximum devices

Any other ideas?

That's bizarre.  I am able to get this in:

Switch(config-if)#ip device track max ?

<0-65535>  Maximum devices (0 means disabled)

Can you post the output to the command "sh version"?

What happens if you run the interface command "no ip device track max 10"?

I have tried the no ip device track max 10 in interface mode and it accepts it but when I issue " sh ip device tracking int gig 2/0/22 " it still says its enabled.

SW#show ip device tracking interface gig 2/0/22

Hmmmmm ... I read in another post that this could be one of the known IOS bugs.

So best to upgrade the IOS on the switch then?

So best to upgrade the IOS on the switch then?

Ummmmm ... In this case, I am not sure.  My 3560CG, where I am able to run the command, is running 15.2(1)E.  This version, also known as IOS XE 3.5.0E for 3560/3850, is not yet available for the 3560/3850.

Personally, I'll leave this up to you since I am not yet finish with my testing of this particular IOS version.

Ok thanks for your help.

I found ip device tracking was causing my clients grief due to conflicting ip addresses.  The switch ports were sending arps with a 0.0.0.0 ip at the same time the tcp stack was reinitializing and gave itself the same 0.0.0.0 ip.  Windows was not happy with that.

We performed an IOS downgrade on our access layer switches to 15.0(2)SE4, this version allowed us to disable ip device tracking.  It appears in newer versions of code(15.2) it was on by default and could not be disabled.

My experience was with 2960's though.

Damien,

To disable IP Device Tracking on a per-interface-level, use the command "ip device tracking max 0".   "0" means disable.  Don't ask me why we had to result to this but I sure heck didn't like it.

We had the same issue with a 2960s model. We also downgraded to another version and we could then change the no ip device tracking command with no issues.
