Brian,
I have a 4500m that I am using as my bgp and ospf router.
I have set up VLANs on the 2948G-L3 as port-channels w/ sub interface
encapsulation; but I do not have this on the 4500m. I also do not have the
VLAN sub interface command like you do on the 5500.
I am sure there must be a way to do it, but for the grand finally, the CCIE
test uses a 5000 switch w/ a RSM, acceding to the web.
http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/625/ccie/certifications/routing.html
Equipment List
2500 series routers 
2600 series routers 
3600 series routers 
4000 and 4500 series routers 
3900 series token ring switches 
Catalyst 5000 series switches 
That is why I am trying to get the same stuff, or as close a possible to the
test.
Below is info from my 4500m; any feed back on configuring it for "vlan"
would be much appreciated, please keep in mind I can only run Version
11.3(11a), b/c of hardware limitations.

Subject: Re: Lot of talk about 3548; but is it a VLAN router like the
5000?



Matthew,

Why not just use the 4500 to do mls with the 5000 or another switch?
