catalyst3560 and citrix sessions problem
Posted by PrzemekD on May 7th, 2008


One of my customers claims that incorrect config and/or sw hw fault is
causing problems in his LAN.

there are 4 vlans:
1 management, untagged (subnet 10.10.10.0/24)
2 net1 (subnet 10.1.2.0/24)
3 net2 (subnet 10.1.3.0/24)
4 net3 ( subnet 10.20.30.0/26 !! )

each of the vlans 2-4 have its own router/gateway (x.x.x.1). Those routers
are not managed by my customer neither me. I cannot see their config.
They are connected to switch' ports: vlan2 - port Gi0/2, vlan3 - Gi0/3,
vlan4 - Gi0/4

On vlan4 there are PC users running citrix client and connecting to remote
server (vlan4 gateway act also as vpn tunnel)

The problem is that clients in vlan4 have randomly disconnected their citrix
sessions for 1-30 minutes and then have link back again.
During that periods vlan4 gateway is reachable from remote side, man tries
to ping any of clients or switch (10.20.30.2) but those are unreachable.
On same time ping from the switch does not reach vlan4 router.

In Log of the switch there are no layer2 broken-link errors concerning Gi0/4
port.

Do You can verify below config - can be a source of problems?

Please help

You could always take out the QoS and see what happened?

It will probably be possible to see if the QoS is dropping traffic.

sh int

and have a look at any drops.

There may be other commands too.

There are quite a few bugs in auto-qos on the 3560/3750 platform. Cisco had
some very serious issues with dropped traffic due to QoS on the 3750
platform but most of the issues have been resolved in 12.2(25)SEA code and
higher. The problem you are having does not sound like QoS problems because
you have a complete loss of traffic. If QoS was a problem you would have
problems with applications running slow not a complete loss of connectivity.

When having the problem does switch have the MAC address of the default
gateway in the CAM table? Does it appear in the are ARP table? If you don't
see it in both places, you have a layer 2 problem that needs to be
addressed. You should not have "spanning-tree
link-type point-to-point" on your switch port connections! This command is
recommended if your switch AND the switch other end is running rapid-PVST+.
This could be the source of your problem (you are running PVST+ not
rapid-PVST+) and you are having spanning-tree issues. Do you see
spanning-tree messages in the log with date-time stamps just before or
during this problem?

I removed all QoS related config, but problem occured few times again
I enabled udld aggresive on all switches and I will be observing effects...

thanks for suggestions

I did not noticed any of spanning tree messages /or packets (I starded
shiffing using port SPAN and WireShark).


Any other idea?

Is the router for VLAN 4 directly connected to port gi 0/4 ?

Check if the router for Vlan 4 is sending CDP on interface Gi 0/4

sh cdp nei

If it is being received then check if you continue to receive CDP
during an outage event

If CDP is not enabled, discuss we admin for router for vlan 4 if CDP
can be enabled for troubleshooting purpose.

You need to know if the router and the switch have a link during the
outage event.

Please post output of show interface Gi 0/4 and show interface gi 0/4

cdp is turned off, moreover there is a Netscreen 5G (or something like that)

You need to find out ALL of the devices between your switch and the

Also there needs to be an agreed upon troubleshooting process between

For example the problem in question might be caused by the
firewall ...
