CL: idle curiousity. as an alternative, can't the replacement blades be preconfigured on another box, then moved to the box in question? this is not meant as a snide remark, or a negative criticism. I think what you are demonstrating is a well known phenomenon, where people back off / out of good ideas and good practice as a matter of expedience and convenience. (And yes, I have been known to have backed off requiring password changes every 30 days because I got tired of, every 30 days, going from user to user to help them log in using a new password.) > > Larry Letterman > Network Engineer > Cisco Systems Inc. > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 3:49 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: RE: Native VLAN 1 [7:55743] > > > > > > Larry Letterman wrote: > > > > > > vlan mismatches and major spanning tree recalcs.. > > > > Why?
