Switchmap doesnt understand 2960

[Ailsma]

Hello team,

I am trying to get the switch map to collect data from Cisco 2960 Switch. It is not giving me any data. do I need to do anything special for Switchmap to collect info from 2960 Switch?

Thank you

Regards

Ailsma,

Sorry for the really late reply I normally don't read the Help forum. Bad habits. Which version of switchmap are running? I have no problem collecting data from a WS-C2960-48TT-L with switchmap version "10.18".

Hi,

I'm using 10.18 and I'm getting strange output from a WS-C2960G-48TC-L with a (IOS 12.2(25)SEE2) C2960-LANBASE-M image.

The output on the web page for the switch is divided into 3 sections - Module 1, Module 8 and Module 9. The 'Module Information' for 8 and 9 is non-ASCII text and their 'Port Information' is empty.

Other switches (2924, 2950, 3560) are fine.

Rgds,

I have that same version with the same problem. The issue I think we have at hand is the data is returned as binary and not ascii. We would need to make an adjustment for that and probably query a differnt OID. I haven't looked into it at all as I have been buried. I will try to get to it after I get back from my vacation on July 12th.

If you can temporarily allow access via SNMP, I can debug the problem. I'd need a read-only SNMP community string on the switch, and an IP address that I can reach. If you have firewall(s), my SNMP requests would come from 128.117.2.200.

I snooped the traffic from the switch. The request for this OID stood out.

snmpget -v 1 -c xxxxxx 192.168.2.2 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.5.1.9.3.1.5.1.1

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.5.1.9.3.1.5.1.1 = Hex-STRING: FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF
FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF

FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF

It's SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.cisco.workgroup.ciscoStackMIB.vlanGrp.vlanPortTable. vlanPortEntry.vlanPortIslVlansAllowed.1.1

IOS upgrade needed?

c2960-lanbase-mz.122-37.SE1.bin works fine.

Thanks everyone for prompt response and providing the solution.

c2960-lanbase-mz.122-37.SE1.bin this IOS works fine for me too. I had to convince my Management to upgrade the IOS which took some time.

once again thanks to everyone.
