Hi Guys,

About to roll out a new "mini-pop" witth a a pair of 2851's and pair of 2960's 
- They will be handling ~50 ethernet tails from a couple of carriers via 
individual vlans on trunk ports from carriers->2960(So 2960 only does L2), then 
trunking those vlans up to 2851 for L3(Tails will be a mix of vrf+Inet)....the 
2851 also will connect to the rest of our network(MPLS/MP-BGP)

Our "usual" setup would be to have a 2851 + 2960 as "active", and manually copy 
the config across to the spare 2851+2960, and if one of the primary fails, it 
would require swapping cables....not ideal.

Hoping someone has some suggestions on an alternate setup to what we currently 
do to provide a little more "auto failover" - hsrp on the 2851's would require 
/29's per client tail and also virtual ip per tail?(again, not ideal)

I've attached a diag that I hopes better illustrate our "current" setup(hope 
its permitted)...i.e. router on a stick.

Thanks in advance.
