[7:69576] I am planning to configured both my core and distributions as L3 device, and let the access switch to distribution using L2. I was advice that by doing this on my network two identical ip address on same subnet/vlan but in a different access switch can exist. And a packet that is attend to a host in the different switch might end up in the else where. Is this real?. Sorry, but I have never think off this before.
