I have a Cisco Catalyst 2960 series switch.
When I connect another switch or a VMWare Esx server on one of the ports, the port blinks for few seconds and then goes off.
When I connect a desktop or laptop or a windows server the ports stay led and I can access resources on the network. However, when connect another switch or a vmware esx server, the port is disabled.
What config in the switch can I check to make sure the ports stay on regardless when I connect a desktop / laptop, switch or vmware server?
Thankyou for your help.
Regards
