All those who consider any version of this platform beware. As far as I can tell there are no reliable software versions for this switch that do not suffer from connectivity bugs. We thought 12.1(13)EA1b solved our problems so we started rolling out this version. Upon reloading we have a number of users complaining and we're not able to resolve the connectivity issue.
Granted, this particular problem is between the 2950 and an old NIC but I'm sure we're not the only company with a few older NICs in the network. If you're considering replacing existing switches with the 2950 prepare yourself for deluge of conenctivity problems. You have been warned! [Side note to Cisco: How hard is it to build an access switch that works?? We're on 12.1(13)EA1b and we still have BASIC connectivity bugs??? This is ridiculous. Bugs in the more obscure portions of the code are to be expected, but shouldn't the connectivity bugs be given a little higher priority? When we buy a new switch it would be nice if *all* of our end users could actually connect to the network. Maybe we'll go back to using Nortel switches. ] Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=72821&t=72821 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
