Hello,

On a Cat2900 the interface vlan 1 is what you call "management interface" 
this is where you put an ip address if you want to manage the switch 
remotely via telnet.  It has nothing to do with vlan database. If you are 
connecting a cat5K to a 2900XL, I assume that you are using a cross over 
cable.  Are you trunking? If you are not trunking, what vlan is the port on 
cat5k belongs to? "show port mod/port" will tell you what vlan the port 
belongs to on cat5k.  If you are not trunking the ports on both end must be 
in the same vlan and since there is no router here there willno one to do an 
inter-vlan routing for you. So, the sc0 of the cat5k and the interface valn 
of the 2900XL must be in the same subnet/vlan to be able to ping each other.

For example(access port):
cat5K 2/1-----vlan 1------fa2/1 2900XL
sc0 10.1.1.1/24           interface vlan2
vlan 2                     ip address 10.1.1.2/24
                          interface vlan1
                           shutdown

For example (trunked port):
cat5k 2/1-----isl--------fa2/1 2900XL
the configs would be the same however the swtiches would have to be in the 
same vtp domain (cat5k:show vtp domain, 2900xl:show vtp stat).  If the 
trunking are configured correctly the "show vlan" at either switch would 
show you an identical database.

I hope this helps.

I've configure 2 VLAN on 5505 and it is connected to 2900.
In order for my VLANs to work I need to disable VLAN.
my commands:
config t
int vlan 1
shutdown
I thought that this would bring down administratively shut down vlan 1 but
it does not.
What am I doing wrong?
