What's the benefits of using cluster between CAT3500 switches?

2001-03-23 Thread Thomas

Hi All - I know that it's possible to create cluster for a stack of CAT 3500
switch.  This way, one can use only one IP address for the whole stack.
Beside this benefit, what else can I gain from creating the cluster?
redundancy?  Thanks All!

Cost - I know that in a few sites that I have where I usually use 6500s (for
floors with 200+ clients per closet), I can get away with a stack of 2 or 3
3500s (for 100 or so clients) if the lack of  backplane capacity is not an
issue. This way I still have the gig uplinks and I'm delivering the access
switching at a significant reduction over the 6500s.
