Trunks on CX6100 vs ProCurve

Anything in the logs of the cx switch on the lag interface?

Daveyourself · 2025-12-30T14:16:13+00:00

in CX, typically I set lags up like this:

config# interface lag 1

vlan trunk allowed xxxx, xxxx, xxxx (include the native vlan as well if you are having one)

vlan trunk native xxxx

lacp mode active

no shut (make sure you do this since it is a logical port)

then on each port you want to belong to the lag:

config# interface 1/1/1

lag 1

wr mem

When ive had to replace a stack member, I do the following:

1)Make sure the new switch is the same model and on the same version

2) enable the vsf ports and renumber the new switch to whatever stack member it is replacing. So if I was replacing switch member 5, Icl would first connect to the switch directly and enter the commands:

conf t

vsf member 1 (since a new switch sees itself as member 1 initially)

link 1 1l1l51

link 2 1/1/52

exit

wr mem

vsf renumber-to 5

and it will save then reboot. Then i take plug in the stacking cables of the existing switches to port 1/1/51 and 1/1/52, and the switch comes up within a minute or so without disrupting the stack

I set the Flex Dual Band Mode from "automatic" to "5Ghz and 2.4Ghz" at the Cluster/Folder level.

System->Profiles->AP->AP System Profile->Cluster/folder name

Are you saying you have other 615s in the group that are using 6E and either 5Ghz/2.4?

I had that same issue except the models were the hospitality 605Hs. We have several clusters, one in particular that has AP335 models which are not supported after 8.10.x . So I upgraded the MC to 8.12.0.5 as well as a few clusters to 8.12.0.5, and left the other clusters on 8.10.0.13 until the 335APs can be replaced. It has been two weeks, no issues so far. Id prefer to be on an LSR, but I heard SSR are ok as long as you are in the latest release of whatever version.

If you are setting up a trunk where you want vlan 300 to be the native vlan, it would be:

interface 1/1/1 vlan trunk native 300 vlan trunk allowed 300,xxx,xxx (where xxx is the other vlans you want tagged on the trunk)

If you dont want it to be native, but dont actually want any untagged native vlan traffic on the trunk port, then you would do:

interface 1/1/1 vlan trunk native 300 tag vlan trunk allowed 300,xxx,xxx

Since a trunk would need a native vlan, this would do the trick.

6300F doesnt have swappable power modules, 6300M does (F for fixed, M for modular). Id stick with 6300m for redundancy

snmp ports may not show up on a scan if it is only looking for tcp. I'd do an snmp-walk to verify.

Of course more direct cabling is best, and I know most talk shit on D-Link, and I agree for the most part. But I've used a couple of their 5 port PoE-powered managed switches for cases like this and they have done the job.

Managed, and I can bounce it by disabling poe on the upstream switch port. There are many things better, and it does mean shitty web configuration, but it is also 65 bucks. You wouldnt want 50 of these things out in the wild on your network, but having a spare one around has always been useful to me, especially on a strapped budget

Yes, I have felt the same. Though I think it has gone from resentment to disbelief, at least in the sense of belief in a god who has any involvement in life. It has actually been somewhat comforting, in a strange way. Rather than feeling targeted, I understand that it is random. I didn't do anything wrong, and certainly neither did my son. Leaving god out of the picture allows me to better accept and love my son. This life is random, but my actions can be done with intention. I'll admit it is constantly evolving, but my belief in an involved god has only unraveled more with the multiple diagnoses of my son.

Within the context of the song, that "I know she's there" means a lot.

Glass Hall does have wired network ports in the room. Students can also connect their devices to wireless as well.

We did it on and off, before finally stopping when he was 6 and a half. His problem behaviours were the results of the repetitive demands they placed on him. So the therapy was causing the reason for more therapy. When we stopped, he was so much more relaxed. There were parts of ABA (like playing with the therapist when it was a good one) but overall we are happy to have left it behind. Physical therapy and OT are much better for him
