two group of 2960-s stacked switches connection problem

recep.sefer
Level 1
Level 1

I have two group of 2960 stacked switches connected by trunked (UTP) interface

stack-1                       stack-2

SW-1 -------UTP-------- SW-A

SW-2                           SW-B

SW-3                           SW-C

SW-4                           SW-D

I cannot ping stacks by their management IP?

Here is the config of stack-1

stack-1#sh switch
Switch/Stack Mac Address : c025.5cf1.0b80
                                           H/W   Current
Switch#  Role   Mac Address     Priority Version  State

Ok, try these sequence of commands from switch stack 1 ...

conf t

cluster enable

do sh cluster candidate

!!!!  Note the MAC address of stack-2

cluster member mac pass

end

rc 1

!!!! If everything is correct, you should be able to remote into stack-2.

Can you post the output to commands of both stacks:

1.  sh interface trunk;

2.  sh int vlan 200;

stack-1#sh int trunk

Port        Mode             Encapsulation  Status        Native vlan
Gi1/0/48    on               802.1q         trunking      1
Gi1/0/49    on               802.1q         trunking      1

Port        Vlans allowed on trunk
Gi1/0/48    1,200,379-380,396-399
Gi1/0/49    1,200,379-380,396-399

Port        Vlans allowed and active in management domain
Gi1/0/48    1,200
Gi1/0/49    1,200

That's why you can't ping the 2nd stack's managmenet IP address.  You can't see it in "sh cdp n". 

Provide the following commands from the 2nd stack: 

1.  sh interface vlan 200;

2.  sh interface trunk

Maybe interface VLAN 200 is in "shutdown".

Are ports G1/0/48 and G1/0/49 going to the same switch? 

Yes they are on same switch (stack-1)

here is teh topology

I can reach stack-1 by VLAN200 IP adress

But I cannot reach stack-2

                                       stack-1                       stack-2

Backbone------fiber-------SW-1 -------UTP-------- SW-A

                                       SW-2                           SW-B

                                       SW-3                           SW-C

                                       SW-4                           SW-D

On the stack 2, post the output to the following commands:

1.  sh interface trunk; and

2.  sh interface vlan 200

I cannot reach (telnet) stack-2

It is so far to me

I am sure stack-2 config is same as stack-1

is it possible to solve it without going to stack-2

Is VLAN 1 on both stack enabled or disabled?

Yes

Vlan 1 is enabled

here is config

interface Vlan1

no ip address

!

interface Vlan200

description management

ip address ...

stack-1#sh vlan

VLAN Name                             Status    Ports

---- -------------------------------- --------- -------------------------------

1    default                          active    Gi1/0/4, Gi1/0/5, Gi1/0/6 ....

Ok, try these sequence of commands from switch stack 1 ...

conf t

cluster enable

do sh cluster candidate

!!!!  Note the MAC address of stack-2

cluster member mac pass

end

rc 1

!!!! If everything is correct, you should be able to remote into stack-2.

Thank you very much

I  access switch with you help

I correct th config

and everthing works

Thank you very much for taking the time to rate our posts.
