Cisco has had two releases of the "2900XL" series. The early ones were deeper and (I believe) used a 9 pin console cable. I seem to remember that they did not have the XL logo. Confirmation/denial requested from the list.
For set based command switches then best to be specific: 2901, 2926. BTW 4000s are set based. 3500XL are IOS based. > -----Original Message----- > From: John Neiberger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, December 17, 2001 1:14 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Switch types for BCMSN [7:29391] > > > The 1900 series is also menu-driven.
