Hi there,
I've got big problems setting up a VSS with 2 6509-E with ONE sup2T in each 6509.
I started configuring the 2 SUPs like this:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst6500/ios/12.2SX/configuration/guide/vss.html#wp1055688
VSS config in general is not very complex.
VSL is up (2x10Gig channel from the 2 sup-ports to the 2 sup-ports)
I connected 2 4509E with sup7e with 2 links (1 to sup2t-switch1 and one to sup2t-switch2)
I used port 1 and 3 at the sup7e (i also tried other ones... 1 port on sup7e on on 4712-card... 2 on 4712 card...)
configured PagP on both sides. I had also a look to
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9336/products_tech_note09186a0080a7c837.shtml
I started with 15.0-1 SY1 advipservices - and had problems with the PagP channels.
only the port to the active sup2T is aggregated to the channel - the second
port toggled between stand-alone and waiting to be aggregated.
I tested a lot of things.. changed ports.. cables.. SFP+'s.. X2's... rebooted.. powercycled...
than I installed 12.2.50 SY1 and everything seems to be working... at first....
I did some test - played around with some failure-scenarios - and channels broke up again.
at the moment I'm NOT able to get the channels working..
Than I configured an IPaddress in vlan 1.
the 2 4500s also have management IP in vlan1.
I was NOT able to ping the VSS..
i did a "redundancy force-switchover" and - voila - ping is working.. (I did a lot of pinging - not only one...)
switching back to switch 1 - ping keeps working....
is there anybody out there who can help me?
Is VSS on sup2t so buggy that it is not usable? I can't believe that.. ok. it's just ED..
pleeease help...
many thanks in advance
