RE: Physical ports in IOS

Eduardo,
One common deployment scenario is to run the 6500 in Hybrid mode where
you run Catalyst code on the switch and run IOS on the embedded MSFC. It
sounds like you are in the MSFC, which in hybrid mode is essentially a
separate device from the switch ports. You need to find the management
interface of the 6500 chassis if you want to make layer 2 changes. I
would start by looking at the interface descriptions and traffic usage.
The next thing would be to look for Cisco's MAC address ranges in the
ARP cache. If you are lucky they are using the same passwords on the
chassis and the MSFC.

Good luck,
Dan

Hi,

Thanks for the tip, I forgot to say, i'm in a Cisco Catalyst 6500 with
IOS 12.1(8b) and there's no sh mac-address-table command available. I do
have the enable password, show privilege give me level 15. All
references to interfaces are to Vlan# but no physical ports anyway.

Is there a separate port for switch configuration and router
configuration?, i have other Cisco devices for testing and i found the
show mac-adress-table useful, but with IOS 12.4. Is it a problem with
IOS version?

Thanks,
Eduardo.
