Craig's right on. The 4000 series is positioned as a distribution layer switch, allowing you to aggregate more gig links from the access layer. So, for a customer decision, 4K is the way. Don't know about the test though. Scott ""chenriqu"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 000101c06a5c$2

We ran into a similar problem on a recent project. I think the confusion comes when you try to address the GigE ports of the L3 card as "switch ports" instead of from the router configuration. When you try to SET TRUNK 2/1... only dot1q will show up. If you session into the L3 router, then IS

It's VLAN Trunking Protocol. Transparent means it won't use any of the info learned from VTP, just pass it through to other switches in server or client mode to use. On a "transparent" switch you have to configure your VLANs manually. -- When I disagree with a rational man, I let reality be ou

Michael is correct. About the only thing you can do is set the STP priorities on the ports differently for different VLANs, so that VLAN 10 traffic prefers Bplink A and VLAN 20 prefers uplink B. This would be a sort of manual load balancing. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED
