Subject: ILS + LANE trunks


> Edge switch w/out LANE capability (Cat4000).  Can I connect it to a 5500
> (via ISL or dot1q trunking) that already has LANE trunking set up.  This
> would allow the edge switch to participate in VTP and communicate w/ the
> rest of the network w/out having to be a LANE client.  
> 
> I'm not sure a switch can have 2 trunks.  But can it have 2 trunks w/ 2
> different trunking protocols???  One ISL trunk w/ one LANE trunk??
> 
> Anybody have this kind of setup?  Done this in the lab?  Seen literature
> that says it can work?  I've looked all over Cisco's website and it shows
> all kinds of diagrams w/ this exact scenario, but never says in the
> documentation that a switch can have 2 functioning trunks???
