WS-C3750-E and WS-C3750-X stack

Oleg Volkov

Dear Sirs!

I have two WS-C3750-E and one WS-C3750-X switches.

Two 3750-E now work in the stack with

System image file is "flash:/c3750e-universal-mz.122-52.SE/c3750e-universal-mz.122-52.SE.bin"

And new 3750-X with Universal NPE IOS

System image file is "flash:/c3750e-universalk9npe-mz.150-2.SE4/c3750e-universalk9npe-mz.150-2.SE4.bin"

What I must do?

I think I must use same ISO version in all swithces, but I not found NPE ios for 3750-E

And I can not use non NPE IOS in the 3750-X.

What I can add the new switch to existing stack?

Thanks!

Hello Oleg.

Yes, you can use:

3750-E  c3750e-universalk9-mz.122-58.SE2.bin

3750-X c3750e-universalk9npe-mz.122-58.SE2.bin

Now run the command show license and make sure you are either running IP Base or Ip services, this is because LAN Base feature set doesn't support mixed stacks.

Thanks and best regards.

HI Oleg,

Normally its must have:

In stack environment, it is recommended to have the same image in all your devices and also have the same license level in all devices.  If you have IP services on the master stack and IP Base on the reset of the switches, the entire stack will be effected if the master fails, because not all the features are the same in IP services vs IP based.

Example: If your 3750 is running IP Base feature set then your 3750X should be running IP Base feature set too

Regards

Thanks!

Can I use in the 3750-E  c3750e-universalk9-mz.122-58.SE2.bin

And in the 3750-X c3750e-universalk9npe-mz.122-58.SE2.bin

??

Hi Oleg,

I never used "c3750e-universalk9npe-mz.122-58.SE2.bin" this IOS.

But you can try to stack both the switches. If any problems occurs then u put the logs.

I will say that 12.2(58)SE2 is not a stable IOS , instaed of this please try to use 12.2(55)SE8.

What is the model of your 3750X switch?

I am running into this issue as well with stacking.  More than likely you will receive a MISMATCH when you run the show switch command.

Thanks!
But I found only universalk9 12.2.58 se2 for 3750-e and universalk9npe 12.2.58 se2 for 3750-x
Can I use this software together in stack?
