This is what I do for my redundant setups. I have two provider drops, one into each switch, one connection into the external interface of each of my firewalls from each switch, then one connection back into a trunk port of each switch for routing between the various VLANs. The switches themselves are in the same VTP domain, so that the external connections and provider drops are all in one VLAN. -- Regards, Neil Schelly Senior Systems Administrator W: 978-667-5115 x213 M: 508-410-4776 OASIS Open http://www.oasis-open.org "Advancing E-Business Standards Since 1993"
