Didn't get a response the first time, but was sent during the mailserver
outage. I think this is a pretty easy one (hopefully).
How many layer 2 switchs can I run together in series before I have some
sort of delay problem? I don't think the 5-4-3 rule applies here? I have
a client that has 9 switches connected one to another in series like
one big chain. Is this a problem?
What if it's looped, is there some problem with pushing the BPDU's around
to big of a circle? Cisco's implementation of spanning tree adjusts the
timers based on network diameter, but they only allow a maximum diameter
of 7 (for the parameter) according to the BCMSN book.
Thanks in advance,
