  • 1.  LACP Ex3300 AND Cisco 2950

    Posted 07-02-2013 07:47

    hI Guys

    I have a 8 port VC across multple racks and Im trying to configure an LACP LAG on 2 switches in my VC (FPC0 & FPC1)  and on the other side its a Cisco 2950.

     

     

    Although the LAG is up - on the cisco i keep seeing the 2 interfaces dropping/ flapping every 2 mins or so for about 3 secs.

     

     please see my config below:

     


    *********************JUNIPER CONFIG ******************************************
    show interfaces ae7
    description LACP_TO_THN_MAN02_0/47_/48;
    aggregated-ether-options {

    active;
    periodic slow;
    }
    }
    unit 0 {
    family ethernet-switching {
    port-mode trunk;
    vlan {
    members [ 30 88 ];
    }
    native-vlan-id 30;
    }
    }

     

    show interfaces ge-1/0/23

    ether-options {
    speed {

    }

    any help would be appreciated.  Ive tried the cisco being passive and juniper being active and vice versa and also tried the periodic fast onthe juniper.  no joy.

     

    thanks

    Hi Sol.

     

    Please read this document:

    http://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=KB14501

     

    And please send us info about STP state, LACP state, and enable traceoptions on Juniper side or debug commands on Cisco side.

     

    Bye,

    your config compat with cisco in channel-group x mode on

    you must add config
    set interface ae x aggregate-ether-options lacp passive or active

    It sounds and looks like an auto-negotiation issue - on the juniper side, remove the ether-options speed 100m from the physical interface configuration.  The gigabit ports on the Juniper should negotiate 100 FULL just fine with a 3560.

    guys 

    sorry for the belated update - the problem was the native vlan  issue - on the cisco side  - you have to include vlan 1 on the trunk port s (both the LACP port and switch port) and on the Juniper side include native-vlan-id default  as below

     

     

    cisco config:

     

    interface Port-channel1
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,100
    switchport mode trunk
    switchport nonegotiate

     

    interface FastEthernet0/47
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,100
    switchport mode trunk
    switchport nonegotiate
    duplex full
    channel-group 1 mode passive
    end

     

     

     

    Juniper Config

     

     

    how interfaces ae7
    aggregated-ether-options {
    link-speed 100m;
    lacp {
    active;
    periodic slow;
    }
    }
    unit 0 {
    family ethernet-switching {
    port-mode trunk;
    vlan {
    members [ 100 777 ];
    }
    native-vlan-id default;
    }

     

     

    show interfaces ge-0/0/23
    ether-options {
    link-mode full-duplex;
    speed {
    100m;
    }
    802.3ad ae7;
    }
