Hello

The Sup1 will support two 100Mbps connections, either fibre or UTP/MII from
memory depending on supervisor model.

I'm pretty sure that the Sup1 supports ISL trunking, but find out how much
memory the Sup1 has - if it is 8MB, you are limited in the versions of CatOS
you can run to about 2.3, if you have 20MB I think you can go through to
version 4.5.  The more recent the version, the more features.

CCxP level switching material seems to focus on a Cat5K for most of the L2
switching features, so it's not to bad if the price is right.
