The only problems we have had is when Cisco did not really support an industry standard like they said they did. However, even in those few cases we have found ways to work around it. In addition, the Enterasys GTAC can help you solve most any Enterasys to Cisco interconnection problem. Did you buy Netsight Software? If you REALLY want to save time do whatever you have to do to get it. Kill to get it! After you use it for 6 months to a year you will wonder how you managed a network without it. If you have a bunch of Enterasys in one network look up GVRP if you want to save time on vlans (hint GVRP is standards based VTP). In fact I used to be able to read about GVRP a lot on the Cisco site; all of that was CatOS that supported GVRP. We have found Enterasys to be less expensive on initial purchase, less costly maintenance, a long lasting product, better tech support from company, easier to manage, a more extensive and programmable tool set, giving us more information about devices/users on the network...in general allowing us to do more with less saving lots of time and money.

Goddard [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, October 25, 2011 3:53 PM To: Enterasys Customer Mailing List Subject: RE: [enterasys] <no subject> Going to Enterasys training will certainly help. I had to read the configuration guides from front to back when I was introduced to Enterasys. It also helps to have a test switch or two. Eventually you will adapt.

The commands are very different than on Cisco switches. I know I have to create all of the vlans on the Enterasys switches because they don’t recognize VTP but I am not having any luck.

We recently purchased Enterasys switches and I am having trouble getting them connected to our Cisco network.
