Subject: Re: Which switch to buy for the lab [7:48788]
That's what I thought.
ccbootcamp.com's hardware site(optsys.net) is advertising brand new 3550s
for around $2300
From what I can see on Ciscos' site, you can order two varieties of the 24
port 3550.
WS-C3550-24-SMI (Standard Multilayer SW Image)
or
WS-C3550-24-EMI (Enhanced Multilayer SW Image)
Since there is a hefty difference in price, does anyone know for sure which
one will be used in the lab?
The EMI will be used. The SMI/EMI switches are the same physically. It is
just a different IOS image.

Al, I was in the CCIE Power session at Networkers on Friday and without a
doubt you need the EMI version. To use their words They will now have a 24
port router. The EMI version is the only version that does Layer 3 switching.

SMI version.
I'll call Brad on Monday and see what it is they are actually selling.
Thanks,
