HP Procurve Switch 5406zl VLAN with Cisco

[amir-zkria]

Dears,

Good day to you

kindly could you help me configuring HP Procurve Switch 5406zl VLAN trunking with Cisco catalyst express 500 "POE" and Cisco catalyst 3560G "POE" for voice and Data and HP Procurve 1810G-24 switch.

I tried many configuration steps from Google to create trunking between HP & Cisco, but all doesn't work.

Please find out Visio diagram explain the connections.

Shouldnt be a problem. Take a look at this for CLI comparison: http://h17007.www1.hp.com/docs/interoperability/Cisco/HP-Networking-and-Cisco-CLI-Reference-Guide_June_10_WW_Eng_ltr.pdf

Also, paste the config you've come up with today.

[Vince_Whirlwind]

Just remember "untagged" = "Access"/"Native", while "tagged" means it's a "trunk".

So on the Cisco

int g1/0/1, switchport mode access, switchport access vlan 10

or

int g1/0/1, switchport mode trunk, switchport trunk native vlan 10

Will both match on the HP Procurve with

vlan 10 untag A1

or Cisco

int g1/0/2, switchport mode trunk, switchport trunk allowed vlan 10,20

with Procurve

vlan 10 tag A2

vlan 20 tag A2

Dear Vince Whirlwind 

This is the configuration on Cisco 3560G and HP Procurve Switch

and still cannot ping from Cisco switch to default gateway 10.1.8.254, or getting dhcp IP for a client connected to Cisco SW,

your advice

Thanx.

****Cisco 3560G configuration

Switch#sho run

! interface GigabitEthernet0/3

 switchport access vlan 8

 switchportmode access

! interface GigabitEthernet0/11

 switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

 switchport trunk allowed vlan 8

 switchport mode trunk

! interface vlan1

no ip address

! interface Vlan8

 ip address 10.1.8.250 255.255.255.0

!  ip default-gatweway 10.1.8.254

***** HP Procurve 5406zl configuration

vlan 8

   name "VLAN8"

   untagged A15-A16

   ip address 10.1.8.254 255.255.255.0

   tagged A3

   exit

[Vince_Whirlwind]

So either 5406 Port A15 or A16 is patched to the 3560 G0/3

or

5406 Port A3 is patched to 3560 G0/11

One or the other should work.

Hi Amir,

As per the configuration it seems that Cisco 3560G (Port G11) is connected to Procurve 5406 (Port A3) and  it is trunk for vlan 8 and tag for vlan 8 respectively, if mentioned connection is correct then configuration look good; however just wanted to confirm same is reflected in your visio diagram.

As per your visio it seems that Cisco 3560 is connected with Procurve 2810, could you confirm.

Dear Vivek Singh

Good day

yes I conform the original setup as per visio attached ( Cisco Catalyst Express ESW-540 connected to HP Procurve 2810, and HP Procurve 2810 it self it connected to HP Procurve 5406zl).

da thing is, Trunk configuration between HP 2810 & 5405 (VLAN tagging) was work perfectly, only the problem came when I need to configure another VLAN trunking between HP 2810 and Cisco esw-450, and I can say after some try and error voice VLAN are appear on Cisco switch but no data VLAN appearing !?

But I can say the problem is the version of OS using by Cisco ews-540 I think it need firmware updating, because when I use Linksys SRW2024 I am able to get both VLAN.

Ok

I have a another problem configuring HP 1810G-24 for VLAN (Data,Voice), how can configure it ?

The scenario attached on Viso file,

[Vivek_Singh]

Hi Amir,

To configure VLAN on 1810, you need to access web interface of switch as it is web-manage switch, after that go to VLAN Setup, create vlan ID.

After creating VLAN ID go to VLAN Port Config and tag ports which are connected to uplink or downlink.

Hi Vivek

Thanks for your support,

the Cisco switch was perfectly configured, the problem was the uplink ports "GBIC" are not working, may be are not support. But I configured other port for uplink as trunk port and it was going very fine.

Thank you  again

Regards,
