Hi,
I have a set of access switches (3750s), which are purely in a layer 2 setup,
i.e. connect uplink to core 6509s, which are setup as root and backup
spanning-tree roots.
I need to connect another set of switches to the above 3750s in a migration,
but would like to be able to test the physical layer before-hand to avoid
surprises on the migration day.
One "safe" way I thought I could do this interim step was to make the switch
ports into routed ports, i.e "no switchport". This should clear off any
spanning-tree hiccups when I'm doing a physical level test. Once this goes
ahead ok, then I plan to shut down the ports and later configure them as
standard L2 ports.
Any comments? Is there any other way I can do such an interim test in a "safe"
way, i.e without affecting other production traffic on the 3750s?
