Switch types for BCMSN [7:29391]

I'm trying to sort out once-and-for-all where the demarcation line is between families of switches. Here's what I've got so far: IOS-Based Cat 1900 series Cat 2820 series Cat 2900XL series Set-based Cat5000 series Cat 6000 series Cat 6500 series Cat 2900 However, the 2900XL uses different com

The 1900 series is also menu-driven. To make things more confusing, their IOS-type command set is different than the IOS-like commands on the 2900XL series. John >>> "Dennis Laganiere" 12/17/01 11:45:33 AM >>> I'm trying to sort out once-and-for-all where the demarcation line is between famili

I believe you are correct that the earlier 2900XL switches were (much) deeper and required a DB9 console connector. All of the 2900s I've ever used were IOS based, not set based. However, I can't say I've used all of the different models 2900 out there =) Mike Daniel Cotts wrote: > > Cisco ha

First off, let me say "Shame on me" for not being clear enough. There were indeed other 2900 models that were set based, like a 2-slot Cat5000 but you couldn't change the hardware. I have one of those, it's a Catalyst 2901. But these were before the XL series. As fas as my comment about the ne

Just a quick note on the 1900s. The old 1900c switches, (size of a pizza box) and db-9 console port were menu driven. the 1924-A standard edition (software upgradeable to Enterprise edition) and enterprise catalyst switches (1924-EN), you can choose IOS from the menu and is just like a 2924xl. Th
