Configure Uplinkports on the SUP720

Sep 08, 2007 3 Replies

Hi all



today I tried to connect two cat6509 with SUP720 over the uplink ports on the SUP. I connect it with a cat5 cabel but there are no connectivity between the two switches..no port come up ? The SUPs are redundant on modul 5 and 6. I try to configure gig 5/2 ( active sup) as an normal switchport to connect each other....but the link doesn't come up...



any help for me ?

Do you have crossover cable? Or configure mdix auto. Are you running IOS or CatOS? Send here these results, if you have IOS: show int status module 5 and 6 show run int gi5/2

IIRC the default media type for the SUP720 second GE port is fiber sfp.

so to use CAT 5 cable:

int gi 5/2 media-type rj45

Hi...

thx that was the solution..... I forgot to configure rj45...;-))
