Please find attached diagram. I want to have an opinion that which switch shall I replace the Cisco 2960s with so as to elimintae the need for spanning tree in there but then what would be the design look like between Netscreen and those new switches. Also would it be vendor independant to work Between Cisco and Netscreens/Cuberguard.
The design you currently have, doesn't require spanning-tree as such. It can be turned off without issues, but it's better to keep STP running just in case something changes.
Thanks.
