Depends on your throughput needs. Have you looked at the 2960-S series? It's pretty much a 2960 with 10G stack cables. It would be a cheap way to allow your environment to scale without needing routed hops or spanning tree. Also, the 29xx switches are pretty well oversubscribed. I'm not sure if that was ever an issue for you though.
Nope... never pushed even a gigabit really.
You may also want to check your UPS if you actually had a power event destroy equipment. I can't think of a scenario where that would/should ever happen. You should be looking at smoked breakers/UPS equipment, not smoked network gear. If the same happened to your systems/disk infrastructure you'd probably be in serious trouble.
We had a few other equipments 'locked up'. The 2970 we pulled apart and observed a capacitor with tell-tell crust on the top of it, and some other components that look like they have been heating up lately (discolored). Everything else seems fine. We're going to re-think our power situation and look to implement a battery bank with generator as opposed to our current aging ups system (apc5000).
Thanks for the suggestion tho. The 2960's seem quite pricy however. Mike- _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
