Rik is correct. The SupIII only supports IP routing protocols. To get layer3 IPX in the 4000 you will need to install the 4232 L3 blade and the enhanced IOS image for it. This would not be very clean. Do they really need the IPX? Maybe you can pitch a conversion from IPX to IP while installing the switch. I also notice that you have the 5483 TX GBIC's specked out. Are your cable runs within the distance limitations? When you are talking about running between floors you better have them tested to be sure.

Rik -----Original Message----- From: Wayne Jang [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 21 August 2002 8:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Help, Switching Solution with 4006 [7:51799] Hi, I am proposing the following LAN solution to a customer. Does it make sense? -WS-C4006-S3(sup III engine) Do I need special licenses for this? The customer will be using IP and IPX. I saw some licensing software for the Sup III that was around $1700 for both IP and IPX. I don't know that that is all about. -One 48 port RJ45 blade for servers and workstations on same floor -One 6 port GBIC blade (WS-X4306-GB) that will be used to connect to five WS-2950s on different floors -I will use the WS-5483 GBICs to connect the 2950s to the six port WS-X4306-GB Can anyone think of things I haven't considered?
