You bring up a point I was going to bring up... I have a cat5k with a
supervisor I (I believe)-- doesn't support dot1q. I was thinking of
upgrading the supervisor engine to a version that does support dot1q, but
was curious to known issues. Could you elaborate more about that problem you
mentioned? (changing dot1q trunks to isl)

We mostly use .1q, but i heard it is still better to use isl on old c5ks
because even if they support .1q they still change it to isl on their
backplane.
