I am new to configuring Cisco switches and would like some assistance. Our network is a campus network and we will have two 3550's in our core and in another new building we will have two other 3550's. We have non-Cisco switches at the access layer. The new building should be on another network or vlan. My question is how do I configure the ports on the 3550's. From the network design it looks like the ports that connect the two 3550's together at each building are dot1q. Do I have to configure a port at each building as a layer 3 port to route between networks? Any configuration help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
