Dave has described the "switch blocks" as given in the BCMSM course. Further details would be that the Distribution Layer 65xx switches would have routing capability. They would also use HSRP on the VLANs so that each trunk link to the Access Layer switches would be the primary for one set of VLANs and the secondary for the other set. In case of a link failure all traffic would failover to the remaining link. Each switch block is a unique VTP domain. Traffic between switch blocks is routed. HTH
