it depends :)

If only L2 is needed (and i think,all L3 is done on the 7200 ?) then maybe the new 2960S are also an optipn. But iirc they have only one PSU and a second power source can only be a RPS. So if you want 2 "built in" and also hot swappable PSUs the 3750X will perfectly fit

Hi,

We have an existing POP with 7200(G2) and a 3560 - The POP is growing a lot 
quicker than anticipated, and we have had to add another 3560 to accommodate 
new client eth connections...the 2nd 3560 is connected via PortChan to the 1st 
3560(Not ideal).

Before the POP becomes unmanageable, we are looking at replacing the 1st 3560 
with 2 x 3750's(Or another switch available that offers stackwise, but can 
accommodate a growing number of vlans(We currently have ~250-300 in use)), and 
then use the 3560's for access layer to clients(With the 3560's having 
dual(PortChan) connectivity  to each 3750.

2 Questions:
- Are there any alternatives to the 3750 that we should be looking at?(Given 
budget restraints, and also space(RU) limitations)
- We have a redundant 7200 onsite, that we manually "copy" the config to on each 
change...Is there a better(read "automatic") way to do this?(Not HSRP/GLBP as the 7200 
has upstream connectivity via ATM and only single connectivity is available)

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
