Dell N4032F mac address table population problem

Hello, suddenly we observed very weird situation on our core switch. 

We have end-to-end configured vlan 176 from Edge to Access switches. We can see all hosts participated in this vlan in mac-addresses table on the Edge switch:

EDGE#sh mac address-table dynamic vlan 176
Unicast Entries
 vlan mac address type protocols port
---------+---------------+--------+---------------------+-------------------------
 176 0006.6705.0c74 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 000c.2932.0a9a dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 000c.294f.9410 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 000c.2972.df75 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 000c.2996.b810 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 000c.29b1.11ba dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 3417.ebe9.d043 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 3417.ebe9.d045 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 842b.2b15.180d dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 b82a.7237.1728 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 b82a.7237.172b dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 b82a.7237.1a14 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 b82a.7237.1a17 dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8 
 176 b8ac.6f8d.808e dynamic ip,ipx,assigned,other Port-channel8

But on the core switches which are stacked Dell N4032F I can see even half of those mac-addresses:

CORE#show mac address-table dynamic vlan 176

Aging time is 300 Sec

Vlan Mac Address Type Port
-------- --------------------- ----------- ---------------------
176 0006.6705.0C74 Dynamic Te1/0/10
176 000C.2932.0A9A Dynamic Po10
176 000C.2996.B810 Dynamic Po10
176 3417.EBE9.D043 Dynamic Po20
176 3417.EBE9.D045 Dynamic Po20
176 842B.2B15.180A Dynamic Po20
176 842B.2B15.180D Dynamic Po20
176 84B2.6137.F147 Dynamic Po8
176 B8AC.6F8D.808E Dynamic Te1/0/5

For example mac-address 000c.294f.9410 not exist on core switch, but actually it's connected to ACCESS1 (refer to attached diagram )

I am seeing logs of port-channel failing on my PCM8024-k with firmware version 5.1.11.1. It happens at some random intervals and also when i ssh to the switch. can someone tell if there is any solution to this?

consolidate 4 ports into a closed VLAN

May 25, 2017, 4:36 pm

Hey all.

I have 4 PowerConnect 5224 switches. I'm trying to isolate traffic from a secondary NIC on four hosts. This particular switch only has 5 connections: port 23 goes to another switch, which in turn goes to my router. Then there are the four connections I need to isolate traffic between my 4 hosts. I can log into the switches UI because of port 23, which is my main network (and VLAN 1). It's not trunked currently. The traffic I'm isolating should never be exposed to any other traffic, or have a way to get beyond the VLAN.

What I've tried is creating a new VLAN (23, for the 3d octet of the subnet they all share), and I'm trying to add the hosts to that VLAN as tagged. When I do, I get the alert, "PVID or VLAN port mode conflict."  All the ports have PVID = 1. When I try to ping from host to another, I just get destination host unreachable. There is no DG, just the four hosts on a /24 subnet. Usually I let ARP discover the other hosts. Since I've tried this setup, I get <incomplete> for all the hosts. Is there something I have to enable to allow ARP to work within the VLAN?

Am I missing a config item?

Thanks...any input would be appreciated.

2716: Internal fuse?

Recently moved buildings and my trusty 2716 seems to be DOA. No power up, no leds.

Since there is no on/off switch just wondering if there could be an internal fuse? There is no externally accessible compartments that might hold said fuse.

 It's obviously out of warranty but figured I'd ask the forum before resorting to opening the unit up.

Thanks!

(User manual makes no mention of one, but then it makes no real references to said problem.)

Supported switches for Storage Spaces Direct

Simple Question:

Which Dell switches are supported for a Storage Spaces Direct deployment:

I am looking for a basic solution, so I do not plan on doing RDMA.

RDMA is not required by Windows 2016 S2D according to this Claus Jorgensen blog: 

Quote: "I often get the question “Is RDMA required for Storage Spaces Direct”. The answer to this question is: no.".

I understand that 10Gb IS a requirement of S2D. But are there others?

More specifically: Will an X4012 (or two for fault tolerance) work for a 2-node S2D cluster?

Hi,

I have a powerconnect 5524 and i search how to view the bandwitch use on an interface during x minutes.

I know the command line : show rmon statistics and show interface counter but i prefer an average value of 5, 15min or 1H.

In fine, i should be upgrade my network but i must have the correct value for sizing the futur equipment.

Dell/Force10 S4048-ON LACP Port Flapping Before Reload

May 30, 2017, 5:17 am

I have a pair of S4048 switches connected together using VLT which each have 2x uplinks to my core S6010 pair (also VLT).  The servers connected to the 4048 pair do so with a link to each switch using LACP.

The problem I'm having is that when I reload either one of the 4048 switches it spends 120 seconds rapidly flapping all of the LACP links before actually rebooting.  During this time I can also see syslog messages from my core 6010 switches saying they are throttling management traffic due to excessive control messages being received from the 4048 that I've told to reload.

The 4048s are running FTOS 9.10 (0.2) and the 6010s are running FTOS 9.10 (0.1)

A sample of the syslog messages from the 4048s are:

May 30 10:58:11 %STKUNIT1-M:CP %LACP-5-PORT-UNGROUPED: PortChannel-009-Ungrouped: Interface Te 1/9 exited port-channel 9.

The config from interface Te 1/9 is:

....and the config from the port channel is:

portmode hybrid

I'd appreciate any insight anyone can give on this.

DHCP through 3 switches to Wifi access point?

June 2, 2017, 5:23 am

Hi everyone.

I have sonicwall somewhere, which is connected to a switch. This switch has a port, where you can plug in a wifi AP or a computer via Ethernet, and it will get the IP address and you can go online.

A wifi access point is connected to distribution switch 5 (N1524P), which is connected to our Core switch 1(N3024F, L3) and the core switch is connected with Ethernet cables to server switch 1(N2048P), where the internet connection is coming into port 40.

There are 6 VLANs, where one is for internet.

I have been trying to setup a some DHCP relay on that VLAN and then assigning the port going to the internet switch as untagged to that VLAN, but I can't seem to get it to work.

How should I configure the server switch? Should I create a static IP on the VLAN or create a DHCP server, or what do I do actually?

I thought you could just enable DHCP relay on this VLAN on all the correct ports on all the switches, and then it would work, but it seems to be more complicated.

Thanks in advance.

type of link between switches for a vlan

hi fellas, I have a question:

Should trunk type of link be used for a connection between switches (dell + non-dell) if just one vlan will be on that link?

Ports should be in access mode on both switches for that one vlan, right?

But if trunk is configured on one switch (allows all vlans) and access type port based vlan on the other switch - will such a link be working?

thanks.

Constant Errors: N032.12-1 DRIVER[91422732]: broad_hpc_drv.c(4362) 52072 FP_TCAM.ipipe0 failed(NAK)

There are a few posts about this and answer seems to be FW and a reboot.

But wondered why?

I have 2 stacked for iSCS traffic, we have had the setup running for a few years now but only this week we get 1000s of these errors.

If a Memory issue, I guess will clear with reboot anyway.

The only changes we have made are: updated a few NIC drivers on Dell blades the other side of some 8024K cards.

I wondered if there is a root cause or just "one of those things"

The firmware is old but these are critical points and difficult to schedule a reload let alone a FW update in the short term. I have spanned all connections across both switches so can lose 1 at a time if that's possible?
