Why do CISCO make *-L devices?

[Soon Kwan Kwon]

Hello all,

*-S means such as 3560V2-24TS-S, 3560X-24T-S.

I know, what S has protocol is supporting until stup EIGRP.

I understand until this.

However, I really don't know why do CISCO make *-L devices.

The reason that I think about that is L is supporting just L2 functions.

That is, I heard L3 switch of L means L2 switch..

hmm...

Please contact me.

Thank you.

I presume Cisco makes "-L" models because there's a market for them.

Thank you for replying.

Can you explain what is the "market"?

Wow! thank you so much!!

Thanks to you, I can learn a lot of information^^.

Have a good night!

[Soon Kwan Kwon]

ah..

Actually at first, I used to think "market" was supposed to imply something special meaning.

As I find out, it is just "market" we know!

hmm,

Then, you mean there are people who buy *-L products which is in market.

It is right Joseph?

Right.

If no body bought them, Cisco would stop selling them.
