I have an Enterasys C5 that I need connected to a Cisco 3650 via trunk. (single fiber cable) I don't have as much experience on Enterasys so I was wondering if someone could help me out.
There isn't much on the Enterasys switch. All ports are default vlan 1. I am using port 48 on the Enterasys switch. I tried setting the egress on port ge.1.48 to vlan 1 but when I run "show egress ge.1.48" I get nothing in return.
The config on the Cisco switch is
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/48
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allow vlan 1,16,32,48,64,80,96,112,120,128,144,200
ip arp inspection trust
ip dhcp snooping trust
interface Vlan1
Ip address 10.16.1.1 255.255.255.0
Ip address 10.1.16.1 255.255.248.0 secondary
No ip unreachable
No ip redirects
No shut
Enterasys :
ip address 10.1.16.2 255.255.248.0 gateway 10.1.16.1
Not sure where to go from here.

Found it. Spanguard had the port locked. Issued "set spantree adminedge ge.1.48 false" and gateway is now pingable from the C5. Connected a laptop to the C5, gave it a static in vlan1 and can ping the gateway across the C5 to the 3650.

I don't think I have a layer 2 adjacency. I can see the MAC of the C5 on the Cisco port but can't see the Cisco MAC on the C5 port. When I do a "sho nei" on the C5 it lists the Cisco switch. Weird.

Hi,
did you check the output of
show interface GigabitEthernet1/0/48 trunkon the Cisco?
The default spanning tree algorithms of the Cisco 3650 and Extreme C5 are different (PVST vs. MST). They are more or less compatible in common setups, but you should check the output of
show spantree stats active on the C5 and
show spanning-tree on the Cisco 3650.
I assume you did check the port status first, right?
ExtremeEOS:
show port ge.1.48 status Cisco IOS:
show interface GigabitEthernet1/0/48 status Br,
Erik

To complement Mike's suggestions, make sure you repeat the same command "set vlan egress 1 ge.1.48 tagged" for every vlan you have extended through the cisco switch (i.e. "switchport trunk allow vlan 1,16,32,48,64,80,96,112,120,128,144,200") so that both devices share the same configuration values.
Following is a list of additional commands that might assist you troubleshooting the issue:
->show mac port ge.1.48
->show vlan portinfo port ge.1.48
->show port egress ge.1.48
