AFAIK the L3-switches won't care if you use SVIs or "no switchport" interfaces. Those interfaces use internal VLANs and probably works just like SVIs. If you don't use ACLs/QoS classification/PBR/whatever you can easily use 50 routed interfaces (SVIs or routed ports) without problems. We have lots of CE-boxes with 20-25 SVIs using VRF Lite, no problems. (That goes for 3550s too btw.) > Looking at pricing now, the WS-C3750G-48TS-E is $5k more than a WS- > C4948-E.

The 4948 doesn't give you the same L3-features, e.g. VRF Lite, CoPP and so on. Performance wise it's very good though. So it all depends on what you're using it for. :-) Regards, Peter _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
