Ethernet provides the same throughput up until 100 meters, assuming the cable is made to specifications.What sounds like has happened is this is either poor quality cable (Cat 3 maybe) or it has been terminated incorrectly (Not to 568A or 568B). I h...
If you're asking 'can you run fiber using only one strand instead of two' then the answer is yes - with BX SFPs you can use only a single strand, at two different wavelengths.With fiber, you have either 2 distinct fibers (normal runs) or 1 fiber at 2...
Our general cutoff is 5 stackables - any more and we tend to go with a chassis. The reasoning:1) The price difference shouldn't be too much - the main killer is the 10 gigabit line cards require a Sup 720, which is quite expensive. Then again, the ...
Can you show your config (just the base stuff and one VLAN - we don't need to see all 400 if they're configured the same).One thing that we just tripped over fairly recently is if you are using RPF with an access list - that has to get handled in sof...
Second question first: Spanning tree generated TCNs will indeed essentially zero out the aging timers on the CAM tables and require them to be repopulated. This is (part of) the reason spanning tree respans are bad, network perfomance wise. Dependi...
