I know what I want to achieve and asked a question quite specifically to get to that aim.
Why? Because the router is in the middle of the dc, with each switch about 400m away on each side... and it would cost about au$2k to get a cable put between them both. When there is already a gigE link to each switch, why bother with a new cable? ...Skeeve -----Original Message----- From: Tom Storey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 14 June 2007 6:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 'Cisco-nsp' Subject: Re: [c-nsp] Bridging dot1q on a 7200 Why bridge them on the router? If the two interfaces are connected to different switches, why not either: a) Run a cable between the two and trunk the VLAN accross if its the same VLAN ID; or b) Run a cable between the two, with each end in its respective VLAN But a little more detail about what you want to achieve might help us better advise of a solution. > I am full of questions tonight - that's what happens when you are working on > a dozen things at once. > > I am looking to bridge two layer 2 dot1q interfaces coming in on 2 different > Ethernet interfaces on a 7200(g1/300/400) > > Is what I am looking at a BVI? > > Skeeve > > -- > Skeeve Stevens, RHCE > [EMAIL PROTECTED] / www.skeeve.org > Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 / skype://skeeve > > eintellego - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - www.eintellego.net > -- > I'm a groove licked love child king of the verse > Si vis pacem, para bellum > > > _______________________________________________ > cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] > https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp > archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
