Maybee the new 3650 is enough? Should have dubbel the buffer size according to cisco (12mb vs 6mb) Shared on all ports. Question is if its enough? Bästa hälsningar / Best regards, Gustav Uhlander Senior Communication Infrastructure Engineer Steria AB Kungsbron 13 Box 169 SE-101 23

[c-nsp] ME3600 PW SPAN

2014-05-02 Thread Jason Lixfeld
Seeing as how the ME3600 has no useful remote span capabilities, I just tried to do a ghetto pseudowire span: 1. Connect a trunk port from some STP, PVST+ and CDP spewing test switch to gi0/1 on local ME3600 2. Monitor source gi0/1 on local ME3600 3. Monitor destination gi0/2 on local ME3600 4.

Hi Jason, And what about the xconnect from the g0/1 on local me3600 to g0/4 on remote me3600, wouldn't that work? On the g0/1 on local me3600 create service instance with encapsulation default and do the xconnect under the service instance. adam

I've done something similar in the past without any issues. It's not really convenient to do at scale though. Assuming you only want small situational dumps for troubleshooting and not a permanent copy of your traffic , embedded packet capture might serve you better. My thoughts and words are

That shouldn't be true, unless something changed in the very latest software release. I've successfully used EPC on me3600x boxes quite a few times in the past. My thoughts and words are my own. Kind Regards, Spyros -Original Message- From: Jason Lixfeld [mailto:ja...@lixfeld.ca]

For me it's hit or miss. For example, I can't catch anything in the buffer when setting my capture point to be a physical interface on the device. This is where it would be most useful for me. Also, if I do a tcp capture of every packet on the device, the capture buffer fills up at a *much*

Why you say Cisco doesn't see any longevity for 4500X? 4500X is here to stay, as part of 4500 family, which itself is also here to stay. Roadmap points far into future. You can go ahead with 4500X deployments, or experiment with other metro platforms - ME3600/3800 or even 6880. -- ./ On 2

Anyone know why this bvi stays up up even though there aren't any L2 interfaces/pw's up in this bridge-domain? I would like the BVI interface to go down down when there are no underlying layer 2 connections to be serviced. This was the way ios switches have always operated. not sure why
