Thanks. Very comprehensible overview. I also have a question : Are 24-and 48 port 9300s stackable ? I plan to order access 48 port 9300s for end-user stacks and 24-port for server stack. And also to get one extra 48 port for spare. Would I be able to also use it as spare for 24-port Server SWs ?

@CiscoSal 6 жыл бұрын

No problem. You can stack any flavor of the Cat 9300's together. The only thing you need to watch out for is if you had an older stackable switch. You can not mix for example a Cat 3850 with a Cat 9300. Also... For your server side of things. You may want to consider the Nexus 9K line of switches. The Nexus line was designed to be more of a Data Center centric switch. It may be worth a quick conversation with your Cisco Systems Engineer to make sure you get the correct switch in your DC.

What model, part# can you recommend to replace a catalyst 3650G that will serve as an access switch? More like the switch is in every buidling department building and uplinks to the core switch in a Data Center. 48 ports (1G data, PoE). Would you recommend to get Modular uplinks of 10G or Fixed uplink? If modular you can just upgrade say to 25G, 40G or mGig? Not the whole switch like if you get fixed uplinks? Is it better to get the C9300 -xx T/P/U/S 1G or C9300L/LM 1G? I am new to Cisco switches. Thanks.

9300 and 9300X are still the best access layer switches on the market. For a core switch I would look at the 9500/9500X. If you need something larger, you could look at the 9600 chassis.

There are both 24 and 48-port SFP C9300’s for Gigabit fiber. The C9500 switches are for 10-Gigabit SFP+ and higher (QSFP+). This could be confusing if you previously used C3850’s (1Gig) and C3850XS (10Gig) switches, and assumed the same hierarchy for the Catalyst 9k family. Note that unlike the 3850’s, C9300 switches are not stackable with C9500’s.

Uplinks connect to other switches. So you would have an access layer switch like a 9300 that your users would plug into. Then you would have that switch uplinked to a core 9500 switch where all the access layer switches come together. Hope that helps!

@CiscoSal 2 жыл бұрын

Usually when i hear mlag that means your looking at Arista. This is typically used for data center core switches. So In that case you would want cisco nexus and vPC. The 9300 switch is designed to be an end user switch. You would plug PC’s, printers, access points etc… into them. If we look at more campus core technologies like the 9500 or 9600 then there is also stackwise virtual. Again catalyst is only recommended for campus and not for servers. Hope that helps.

@@CiscoSal according to the datasheet it supports cross stack mc lags. This is for distribution / core replacing two 2960x. The reason I want to use the mc cross stack lag is too remove stp config in the current setup to several ie-2000 switches and replace the stp with lag config. Also several virtualization servers will be connected to the c9300 stack in lag config. That’s at least my intention.

@CiscoSal 2 жыл бұрын

Correct. Multi chassis etherchannel is supported. I just want to make sure you are using them where they are supposed to be used. 9300 can be used as a access layer aggregation point, i would just caution using them for server aggregation.
