E,

Since Kennedy & Clark devote an entire chapter (chap. 18) to them in "Cisco
LAN Switching" I think its safe to say that there are a few. The major one
that I've seen is the differences between "native IOS mode" and "hybrid
mode". In the former, layer 2 and layer 3 are integrated into a single
configuration using an IOS variant. In the latter, the MSFC and the Sup are
configured seperately. If your project deals with redundancy and fault
tolerance, you'll want to take a look at the high availability feature. Just
keep in mind that the MSFC is a daughter card on the Sup module.

Hope this helps,
        Karen
