Hi Don
thanks for ur reply, I dont have a 1924F model its 1924-EN and I doubt its enterprise version, I want to replace one switch out of two with one 2950T-24 for configuring load-balancing. I have the configuration of both the switches, can u help me in shedding some light, whether this configuration is correct, is something missing or any other changes to done.
Configuration is 1924 switch:
port-channel mode desirable
port-channel template-port fastethernet 0/27
port-channel preserve-order
Spantree-template 1 forwarding-time 4
Spantree-template 1 hello-time 1
Spantree-template 1 max-age 6
ip address 173.23.1.150 255.255.255.0
All interface (10basteT) says
no spantree start-forwarding
Each server has dual NIC cards which is connected to two switches in this
fashion.
NIC 1 goes to Switch A -->port 1
NIC 2 goes to Switch B -->port 1.
similarly all servers goes in this fashion.
Fast etherchannel groups the two 100baseT ports into a single, logical
transmission path.
Now I want to replace one 1924 switch with 2950T-24 which has 24
10/100 ports and 2 1000base T ports.
I have configured Etherchannel in 2950T-24
Interface Vlan 1
Ip address 172.23.1.150
Switch#conf t
Switch(config)#interface gigabitethernet0/1 -2
Switch(config-if)#channel-group 5 mode desirable
Switch(Config)#port-channel load-balance (default is source mac)
and configured spanning-tree as
switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 forward-time 4
switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 max-age 6
switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan 1 hello-time 1
once I replace a 2950T-24 switch from a 1924 the configuration doesnt seem
to work, link goes up and down on gigabit ethernet interface, i can only
ping my vlan inteface.
Is there anything missed out, will a etherchannel can be bundled between a
100base T and 1000base T,
I have set the speed and duplex in 2950T-24 to 100 full and forced the
10/100 24 ports to 10baseT half-duplex.
Give me your valuable inputs, if I have missed out anything give me a
suggestion.
thanks
