All, Given the recent discussion on switches, especially HP and Cisco, I thought I'd ask here. Any pointers would be appreciated.
I've just received my shiny new HP 3400cl, which is replacing my Cisco 2948G-L3. I haven't had time to config it, so handed it off to a local firm to config for me, along with a 24-port version of the 2950Ts that I'm using. They have used to opportunity to learn about HP switches, at my expense - apparently the guy they had on staff that knew this stuff left just as I was going to hand it over, so they had a couple of newbs configuring it. But, they can't seem to get it going correctly, even after several days of trying. I have them back in my hands, but am still buried, preparing to go on vacation on Monday. I've got what I consider to be a pretty simple, straightforward arrangement currently - 9 VLANs (the native VLAN (unused), the management VLAN, one for each of 3 floors, one for servers, one for wireless, one for IT, one for the firewall(s) and related equipment), and some static routes to point across our IPSec tunnels, and to an internal router I've set up - but the best configuration they've come up with so far allows only partial connectivity between the various subnets. Can anyone point me to decent docs on getting these things to talk with each other? I'd like to hit the ground running when I get back from vacation, and be ready to implement.
