LACP with STP Sim

December 4th, 2012 in LabSim Go to comments

Question

You work for SWITCH.com. They have just added a new switch (SwitchB) to the existing network as shown in the topology diagram.

LACP_STP_topology.jpg

RouterA is currently configured correctly and is providing the routing function for devices on SwitchA and SwitchB. SwitchA is currently configured correctly, but will need to be modified to support the addition of SwitchB. SwitchB has a minimal configuration. You have been tasked with competing the needed configuring of SwitchA and SwitchB. SwitchA and SwitchB use Cisco as the enable password.

Configuration Requirements for SwitchA

- The VTP and STP configuration modes on SwitchA should not be modified.
– SwitchA needs to be the root switch for vlans 11, 12, 13, 21, 22 and 23. All other vlans should be left are their default values.

Configuration Requirements for SwitchB

- Vlan 21, Name: Marketing, will support two servers attached to fa0/9 and fa0/10
– Vlan 22, Name: Sales, will support two servers attached to fa0/13 and fa0/14
– Vlan 23, Name: Engineering, will support two servers attached to fa0/15 and fa0/16
– Access ports that connect to server should transition immediately to forwarding state upon detecting the connection of a device.
– SwitchB VTP mode needs to be the same as SwitchA.
– SwitchB must operate in the same spanning tree mode as SwitchA.
– No routing is to be configured on SwitchB.
– Only the SVI vlan 1 is to be configured and it is to use address 192.168.1.11/24.

Inter-switch Connectivity Configuration Requirements:

- For operational and security reasons trunking should be unconditional and Vlans 1, 21, 22 and 23 should tagged when traversing the trunk link.
– The two trunks between SwitchA and SwitchB need to be configured in a mode that allows for the maximum use of their bandwidth for all vlans. This mode should be done with a non-proprietary protocol, with SwitchA controlling activation.
– Propagation of unnecessary broadcasts should be limited using manual pruning on this trunk link.

Answer and Explanation:

Below is a good solution commented by Ruci. Please say thank to Ruci!

Some guidelines for configuring SwitchA & SwitchB:

Configuration Requirements for SwitchA

- The VTP and STP configuration modes on SwitchA should not be modified.
– SwitchA needs to be the root switch for vlans 11, 12, 13, 21, 22 and 23. All other vlans should be left are their default values
SW-A(config)#spanning-tree vlan 11-13,21-23 root primary

Configuration Requirements for SwitchB

- Vlan 21, Name: Marketing, will support two servers attached to fa0/9 and fa0/10
– Vlan 22, Name: Sales, will support two servers attached to fa0/13 and fa0/14
– Vlan 23, Name: Engineering, will support two servers attached to fa0/15 and fa0/16
– Access ports that connect to server should transition immediately to forwarding state upon detecting the connection of a device.
vlan …
name …
(VLANs must be created on both switches if not exist)
interface range Fa0/x – x
switchport mode access
switchport access vlan
spanning-tree portfast
- SwitchB VTP mode needs to be the same as SwitchA. vtp mode transparent
- SwitchB must operate in the same spanning tree mode as SwitchA. spanning-tree mode rapid-pvst
- No routing is to be configured on SwitchB.
– Only the SVI vlan 1 is to be configured and it is to use address 192.168.1.11/24.
interface vlan 1
ip address 192.168.1.11 255.255.255.0

Inter-switch Connectivity Configuration Requirements:

- For operational and security reasons trunking should be unconditional and Vlans 1, 21, 22 and 23 should tagged when traversing the trunk link. SW-A(config)#interface range Fa0/3 – 4
SW-A(config-if)#no switchport mode access
SW-A(config-if)#no switchport access vlan 98 //These two commands must be deleted to form a trunking link.
SW-A(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
SW-A(config-if)#switchport trunk native vlan 99
—————————————
SW-B(config)#interface range Fa0/3 – 4
SW-B(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q (yes I can issued this command on this switch)
SW-B(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
SW-B(config-if)#switchport trunk native vlan 99
- The two trunks between SwitchA and SwitchB need to be configured in a mode that allows for the maximum use of their bandwidth for all vlans. This mode should be done with a non-proprietary protocol, with SwitchA controlling activation. SW-A(config)#interface range Fa0/3 – 4
SW-A(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode active
SW-A(config-if)#channel-protocol lacp
SW-A(config-if)#no shutdown
—————————————
SW-B(config)#interface range Fa0/3 – 4
SW-B(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode passive
SW-B(config-if)#channel-protocol lacp
SW-B(config-if)#no shutdown
—————————————
Maybe the interface Port-channel 1 was configured on both switches so we don’t configure it here. If not we have to configure them with “interface port-channel 1″ command. Also you have to turn them up.
- Propagation of unnecessary broadcasts should be limited using manual pruning on this trunk link. SW-A(config)#interface range Fa0/3 – 4
SW-A(config-if)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23
—————————————
SW-B(config)#interface range Fa0/3 – 4
SW-B(config-if)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23

 

You may have to configure Interface Port-Channel on both switches. Check the configuration first, if it does not exist, use these commands:

Interface port-channel1
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk native vlan 99 //this command will prevent the “Native VLAN mismatched” error on both switches
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23,99

Some notes for this sim:
+ You should check the initial status of both switches with these commands: show vtp status (transparent mode on switchA and we have to set the same mode on switchB), show spanning-tree [summary] (rapid-pvst mode on switchA and we have to set the same mode on switchB), show vlan (check the native vlan and the existence of vlan99), show etherchannel 1 port-channel and show ip int brief(check if Port-channel 1 has been created and make sure it is up), show run (to check everything again).
+ When using “int range f0/x – y” command hit space bar before and after “-” otherwise the simulator does not accept it.
+ You must create vlan 99 for the switchB. SwitchA already have vlan 99 configured.
+ At the end, you can try to ping from SwitchB to RouterA (you can get the IP on RouterA via the show cdp neighbors detail on SwitchA), not sure if it can ping or not. If not, you can use the “ip default-gateway 192.168.1.1″ on SwitchB.
+ The name of SwitchA and SwitchB can be swapped or changed so be careful to put your configuration into appropriate switch.

We hope with this information our candidates can find the best solution in the exam. If you learn anything new about this sim please share with us!

    i want to ask a simple question from where did u get vlan 99 i really don’t understand this point there is no vlan 99 in the question ????

  2. Master
    April 15th, 2013

    in real examen i has no any command same as Copy running-config or write.

  3. Bu_Hast
    April 15th, 2013

    2 Ilam El Gohary:
    about vlan 98 99. Config file of SwitchA has vlan 98 and 99. Vlan 99 has name – “TrunkNative”, Vlan 98 – (don`t remember exactly) “access vlan” or like.
    Also I checked configs on interfaces with commant “sh inter switch Fa0/3″, there saw that trunk native – vl 99, access vlan – 98.
    So, i decide to config SwithB as the same :
    switchport trunk native vlan 99
    switchport access vlan 98
    Another words, this vlan described in SwitchA config file.

    2 Master:
    Not at all, in lab “MLS and EIGRP Sim” command “cop run sta” works correctly. In this current lab commands “write” and “copy run start” doesn`t work. Man in test center said me write this moment in comments. Result – passed with 956 points )))

  4. Jimboner

    I get the feeling that “…with SwitchA controlling activation.” is referring to the setting of the LACP system priority using the

    lacp system–priority ‘priority’

    command in global config mode. This makes SwitchA the switch that’s in control of choosing what ports are active on the etherchannel

    This is great… I have done it, very easy.. thanks

  6. Fayez
    April 17th, 2013

    Ilam El Gohary:
    don’t worry about the vlan 99 : because it just a random unused vlan to make it as a native vlan for a security reason as the say in the lab “Vlans 1, 21, 22 and 23 should tagged”
    so we need to make any unused vlan as a native vlan because a native vlan is untagged vlan.

  7. Quick
    April 17th, 2013

    Do we add :

    switchport trunk native vlan 99
    switchport trunk allow vlan 1,21-23
    channel-group 1
    channel-protocol lacp

    Under
    fa0/3 -4
    and
    interface port channel 1
    Both ??

    I have a question regarding to the vlan allowed.

    Do we have the use the below command?
    switchport trunk allow vlan none

    Thanks

  11. Frolic
    April 18th, 2013

    @Quick: I second your question:

    Do we add :
    switchport trunk native vlan 99
    switchport trunk allow vlan 1,21-23
    channel-group 1
    channel-protocol lacp
    Under
    fa0/3 -4
    and
    interface port channel 1
    Both ??

  12. Mr Winter
    April 20th, 2013

    @Quick & @ Frolic

    No you don’t the following commands are used to create the port channel, so there would be no use adding the commands under the port channel 1

    channel-group 1
    channel-protocol lacp

    The following commands are inherited but either or, so if you add this under fa0/3-4 or portchannel 1 it will be inherited by the other.

    switchport trunk allow vlan 1,21-23

    I was under the impression that the native vlan would work the same but it appears that you need to past that command under both

    Thx Ruci. I am gona take this 23/04. Wish me luck!

  14. Frolic
    April 20th, 2013

    @Mr.Winter

    Ya, I do realize that. I actually just wanted to know if we need to define the native vlan on int range fa0/3-4 and Po1 both. While I was practicing this lab, the switch complained of native vlan mismatch even when vlan 99 was configured on both the switches for fa0/3-4. It was only after I configured them on the Po1 when the mismatch msgs stopped.

    Thank you for your response. 16 hours before the exam. Fingers crossed. God Bless.

  20. Vaji
    April 22nd, 2013

    Question for an ACE that has passed the exam..or anyone?

    With changing the NATIVE VLAN….manually config VLAN 1 into VLAN 99?

    Do we REALLY need to create a VLAN 99 on Switch B, because it’s NOT already on SWA???
    SW-B(config)#vlan 99
    SW-B(config-vlan)#name TrunkNative // not necessary to name it but just name it same as SwitchA
    ???

    IS this really needed to pass the exam?
    Thank you Much!
    -Vaji

  21. Vaji
    April 22nd, 2013

    Also,
    SW-B(config-if-range)#switchport trunk native vlan 99
    SW-B(config-if-range)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23, 99<——–|

    Since we trunking between swtiches over a Port Channel, and since we manually change VLAN 1 to VLAN 99 (((Native))).

    DO we need to added the vlan 99, onto that trunk/port-channel on BOTH SWA and SWB to pass the exam!?
    SW-B(config-if-range)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23, 99
    I would say yes…but I don't want to get it wronfg….

    THANK YOU EXPERTS!

    April 23rd, 2013

    Thank YOU! @Vlan-man, so on the EXAM…you won’t need to do this…SW-B(config-if-range)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23, 99<——–|

    and should be simply:
    SW-B(config-if-range)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23,

  24. auto
    April 23rd, 2013

    If you. Are going to allow native vlan I would put it in the etherchannel interface like this
    Switchport trunk native vlan 99

  25. Frolic
    April 23rd, 2013

    @Vaji:

    Thanks, I passed. :)

    Well, I was referring to Ruci’s sim as well. However, the SIM available on this website for packet tracer is not the same as above. It is slightly different. I just understood the concept from the sim above.. Practiced commands on real 3550s.

    Also, on the exam, you will be asked to create vlan 99 as the native vlan. hence you should create it on both the switches. On one of the switches you’ll find an access vlan 98 already there. You will have to negate both the commands.

    I scored 945 and I’m quite sure I may have lost points in this lab coz during verification, when I used : show int trunk , I didn’t see fa0/3 and 4 listed there. I did check the running config.. couldn’t figure out why would it not show..

    Anyways.. Good luck with yours. You’ll crack it. :)

    Please advice

  33. Kostas

    Do we add :
    switchport trunk native vlan 99
    switchport trunk allow vlan 1,21-23
    channel-group 1
    channel-protocol lacp
    Under
    fa0/3 -4
    and
    interface port channel 1
    Both ??

    No you just have to add the following commands in port channel 1, otherwise you will have a native vlan mismatch and all vlans will be allowed through the port channel

    switchport trunk native vlan 99
    switchport trunk allow vlan 1,21-23

    RE: dot1q

    Not sure if this has been answered. The reason why dot1q command is not available is because the IOS image they are using is for 2950 series. Catalyst 2950 comes ONLY with dot1q encapsulation by default.

    does anyone has a solution on that

    April 28th, 2013

    @vaji how did u say u resolved the mismatch?

  43. Khan
    April 28th, 2013

    Should we be configuring the individual ports (F0/3 & F0/4) in the channel-group as trunk ports AND the port-channel as a trunk?

    In real world practice, the individual ports would take on the configuration of the port-channel, which in this case is a trunk with pruning and a specified native vlan.

    Is the redundancy necessary with the Cisco simulator? If the configuration is done to just the port-channel, will the individual ports take that configuration?

    I just want to make sure I don’t miss this lab on the actual Switch Exam.

    Should I go ahead and configure the individual ports (F0/3 & F0/4) AND the port-channel with the trunk specifications?

    April 28th, 2013

    @Khan

    Man.. Just do it how it is written. It’s a simulation, not a real equipment.

    Just simply do it how it works. Otherwise you can test it during your exam and maybe then ask certprepare to update the labs ;).

    P.S. I doubt you will find the answer to your question among these comments. Especially an answer that you could trust 100%.

    For Fa0/3-4 you may need to go with range and note that if you don’t assign these in to Channel-group and protocol “lacp” these two trunks will not load share as spannig tree will block one of the two ports, hope it answers your question

    @chichi,
    if you read the certprepare notes it says there how to resolve “mismatch”
    “Interface port-channel1
    switchport mode trunk
    switchport trunk native vlan 99 //this command will prevent the “Native VLAN mismatched” error on both switches”

    Where I can download the EIGRP hotspot lab simulation? I’m not seeing it on this page.

    Dear All,

    How to verify this lab work well ? Do we need test ping between Server ? Or just ping the gateway of Switch-B ?

    Still the Boomish dumps and these simulations are valid ?
    I heard that dumps are changed from 1st of may?
    Is it true ? r it is still valid?
    Can any one answer me

    hello i did every thing correctly but it is not pinging from swb to router ????????????????/////

    Hey ..in above config we also create VLANS on SW-A but those vlans not assigned to any ports? no ports mention in question also
    but some of the dumps added same port for those Vlans which we used in SWB

    Confused?

    Whether we have to add any ports for SW-A Vlans or just create vlans & leave it as it is??
    Please revert ASAP.

    @Shruthi
    YUP…SW-B Ping to Router ….make sure your interface vlan 1 shows UP in SW-b

    If not do no shut

    & you can able to Ping Router

    & that do without setting ip default-gateway command…..

    No need of that command

    Just FYI if you have trouble establishing a connection thru port-channel 1 just go inside the physical int range fa 0/3-4 and do a shut and then no shut. Then go into the port-channel and do the same.
    To verify do a show ether summary. You should see “SU” on both sides. If you see “SD” thats bad news.

    Hi,

    For this question, do you get any partial marks?

  56. Bonner
    May 6th, 2013

    Hi,

    Just to confirm, I see no point in configuring vlans on both switches, best thing would be to configure both as VTP servers and vlans would be the same and less prone to typo error?

    Correct?

  57. domi

    Why on port channel we pass vlan 99:
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23,99
    when earlier we set this as native?

    Shouldn’t on exam we put simply:
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23

    ???

    Tested and passed today and this was in there pretty much exactly the same. Host IPs were in the 172.16 range but the rest was the same. Even Vlan number and all

    Good luck!

    Hello,

    I’ve passed today the exam with 1000.
    I did this lab and I didn’t use the ip default gateway command, so it’s not necessary.

    Thanks to certprepare for help me.

    In LACP with STP Sim, although I configured completely according to Ruci, I still got “native vlan miss match error”,
    and he said that we can use “switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q (yes I can issued this command on this switch) ” on switch B, but I cannot use this command and
    I can just ping from switch B to server, cannot be able to ping from switch A to server.
    is it true?
    Do I need to be able to ping from switch A.

    In Jojo lab, solution for lacp with STP is work but cannot be able to ping from switch A, but from switch B it is ok. But IP address for server is 10.10.10.1
    IN Ghost lab, solution for lacp with STP is NOT work which mean both switch cannot ping to server. But IP address for server is 192.168.1.1

    Waiting for yor reply. I am taking to exam soon ,so plz help me thanks u so much.

    I need to add some tips about this configuration and I recommend to use it for simplicity:

    1- since we can configure the port channel interface and the commands will be applied inturn to the physical ports , we can add the trunk configurations on the port channel and it will be applied to all physical interfaces automatically.

    2- I think its better to keep the physical interfaces shut till we finish configuration and then no shut them in the final step to avoid the huge logs on console during the configuration or we can use the command [no logging console] to avoid logs if available.

    SW-A(config)#int range Fa0/3 – 4
    SW-A(config-if-range)#channel-group 1 mode active
    SW-A(config-if-range)#channel-protocol lacp

    SW-A(config)#int port-channel 1
    SW-A(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
    SW-A(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
    SW-A(config-if)#switchport trunk native vlan 99
    SW-A(config-if)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23

    3- I think no need to configure the command [SW-B(config)#ip default-gateway 192.168.1.1 ] and it is not required.

    4- I think no need to name the vlans 21,22,23 if they are configured and this can be verified using the [sh vlan] command on SW-A.

    I have found two different configurations for LACP-STP Sim in this web site and Boomish Dumps. Please anyone tell me which is the most valid one to follow? I am planning to take the exam in next week. Many Thanks……

  65. Ramon
    May 14th, 2013

    This configuration is 100% ok, the only command you dont have to write is “ip default-gateway” on switch B. Yesterday I passed my exam with 1000/1000 and I did that lab.

    Thanks u all so much, but I have one more question, is it true that we don’t need to able to be ping from switch A to server in LACP with STP Sim?

  68. lawkanat
    May 15th, 2013

    Hi Ramon & all
    Do we need to sort drag and drop sequencely?
    Did STP and HSPA hotspot question change?

  69. lawkanat
    May 15th, 2013

    Hi Jaliya!
    Don’t worry, I have ever seen this. Just change mode of switch B to active and mode of sw A to passive that’s is. According to question, just read them carefully.

    Hi,
    @certprepare, @ ghost thanks u all
    @all
    In vtp lab 1,
    I think ghost left some command, to think ourselves to work this lab correctly.
    Even we configure like this, it will not work because although both switches are set to server and client, they did not synchronize vtp information.
    Because we should check status of trunk interfaces which is connected between switches by using “sh int trunk” command.
    You will see nothing on both switches on upper downloaded link pkt file.
    Moreover, we will not complete without adding switchport to their respective vlan and making them switchport mode access.
    You will not see this in question but you can see this question on the picture.
    Even if the question did not state that we should check this by using
    “sh vlan” command.
    Here is complete command on both switches and work very well.
    Use thes command on both switches to check status
    “sh vlan”, “sh vtp status”, “sh interfaces trunk”
    We are now start to configure
    DLSwitch#conf t
    DLSwitch(config)#vtp mode server
    DLSwitch (config)#vtp domain cisco
    DLSwitch (config)#vlan 20
    DLSwitch (config-vlan)#ex
    DLSwitch (config)#vlan 21
    DLSwitch (config-vlan)#ex
    DLSwitch (config)#int vlan 20
    DLSwitch (config-if)#no shut
    DLSwitch (config-if)#ip address 172.16.71.1 255.255.255.0
    DLSwitch (config-if)#ex
    DLSwitch (config)#int vlan 21
    DLSwitch (config-if)#no shut
    DLSwitch (config-if)#ip address 172.16.132.1 255.255.255.0
    DLSwitch (config-if)#ex
    DLSwitch (config)#ip routing
    DLSwitch (config)#int fa 0/1(cable between two switches )
    DLSwitch (config-if)#no shut
    DLSwitch (config-if)#no switchport mode access
    DLSwitch (config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dpt1q
    DLSwitch (config-if)#switchport mode trunk
    DLSwitch(config)#copy running-config startup-config

    ALSwitch#conf t
    ALSwitch(config)#vtp mode client
    ALSwitch(config)#vtp domain cisco
    ALSwitch(config)#int fa 0/2
    ALSwitch(config-if)#switchport mode access
    ALSwitch(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20
    ALSwitch(config-if)#exit
    ALSwitch(config)#int fa 0/3
    ALSwitch(config-if)#switchport mode access
    ALSwitch(config-if)#switchport access vlan 21
    ALSwitch(config-if)#exit
    ALSwitch(config)#copy running-config startup-config

    Now you can ping between two pcs which will make u a complete lab.

    // we don’t need to configure switchport trunk on ALSwitch because it is automatically trunk auto mode. They will negotiate themselves.

    I hope this will helpful for u all, good luck in networking environment.
    Moreover my command are here because of certprepare website and ghost’s labs. Thanks u too.

    Can any anyone tell whether , Ruci’s configuration on LACP ST sim is 100 % valid or not?

    If not what all changes we need to do while configuring sim during exam.

    Please help me, I am going to take exam next week,

    Thanks in Advance

  74. lawkanat
    May 16th, 2013

    Hi
    @SJN

    All of Ruci command and configuration are true and perfect.
    But we can delete this command on switche A
    “SW-A(config-if-range)#no switchport access vlan 98 (These two commands must be deleted to form a trunking link)” &
    delete this command also on switch,
    “SW-B(config)#ip default-gateway 192.168.1.1″.
    And add these command on both switches to prevent native vlan mismatch
    “#Interface port-channel1
    #switchport mode trunk
    #switchport trunk native vlan 99 //this command will prevent the “Native VLAN mismatched” error on both switches
    #switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,21-23,99″
    Moreover depend on the question,
    switch A could be in active or passive and also
    Switch B could be in passive or active.
    Be careful on question. Ruci also state that.
    You can see it in the question.
    “SwitchA controlling activation” which mean switch A is active & switch B is passive.
    Good luck in your exam, thank to Ruci and certprepare.

    SW-A(config)#interface range Fa0/3 – 4
    SW-A(config-if-range)#no switchport mode access
    SW-A(config-if-range)#no switchport access vlan 98 (These two commands must be deleted to form a trunking link)

    what do u mean by must be deleted ?
    in my opinion without this two commands the lab gonna work perfectly
    and its unnecessary to configure no switchport access vlan 98

  78. Lily
    May 18th, 2013

    @ ali
    I think lawkanat said “must be deleted” means it will also work if it is not configure these two commands. Thank you.
