<p class="MsoNormal">Currently the guys are running multi 1GB trunks,
some 6GB

there has
been talk of wanting to experiment with 10Gb gear at a hobby level. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The budget isn’t huge, maybe about $1,000 per
month to
spend on gear, but LAN days are usually good test beds to skill up and
play
with this kind of gear.<o:p></o:p></p>
