Cat 3500 and Norton ghost
Greetings All,
We're having a bit of a time trying to get our Catalyst 3500 xl switches to
work with Norton Ghost 6.0 Enterprise.
It brings down the network everytime. Calls placed to support have not
answered this problem.
We are thinking along the lines of IGMP and CGMP not meshing as they should.
It's not a matter of clients not being able to request joining the
multicast, we don't get that far before the net shuts down. Excessive
broadcasts are the problem crashing the net I'm told, I'm not the
Administrator, just a tech, though we have also read that Cisco's Cat 3500
can't support IGMP multicasts. We are currently running IOS ver 12.0 on the
switches.
Our network is such that we cannot put any devices upstream of our demarc
router, so our fix pretty much needs to be a layer 2 fix.
ANY ideas on what we can look into or try is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

I've sent this on up the line, I do appreciate the help, even though the big
boys we're too busy today to give me any feedback on these ideas.
I'll let you know, and we'll keep on pluggin away.
Peace,
Sam

dhcp scope for ghosting only. I also set our 6509 for our ghost vlan to
pim-sparse-mode. This seems to help alot. We just have to switch the vlans
for the ports we want to ghost over to the ghost vlan.
