Let me clarify my statement: "...Some Catalysts may just simply not allow dropping VLAN 1, as it can be the only Administrative Vlan."
What I meant by this is that based on the Version of IOS/CAT OS, that it would not accept any other VLAN as the Administrative Vlan. I know for a fact that you can specify other Vlans as the Administrative Vlan on many of the CAT 5x00/6x00 switches. I just was suggesting that stranger things could happen for the lower-end switches that have low port density, and other types of limitations. After all, Cisco hasn't made a considerable effort to make ALL their switches run Native IOS or CAT OS... it's been a mix/match from all the competitors they've acquired! :) Mark Odette II ... who obviously doesn't have experience with EVERY catalyst switch on the market, and admits it readily. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Darren Crawford Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2002 11:32 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: ISL Trunking [7:30728] I must disagree with VLAN 1 being the only administrative VLAN. It is simply the default VLAN. At a previous client I set up a DMZ switch with a management VLAN of 999. This was on a Cat5505.
