I think your first step should be to talk to your Cisco rep (or get one
if you don't have one). Once they've made a recommendation, you could
the solicit opinions here if necessary, or possibly cisco-nsp mailing
list would be better for opinions on specific devices.

Hi Noggers,

Just looking for some switch recommendations for a small ISP. Mining
through the info at cisco.com gives me a lot of marketing fluff but not
much in the way of real info that I need. What I'm after is as follows:

- Must be Cisco gear (I know there are other options out there but we
are a Cisco shop)

- Layer 2 Ethernet with a minimum of 48 ports gigabit ports. Layer 3
functionality within the switch is not a requirement.

- Dual redundant power

- Q-in-Q 802.1Q tunnelling

I've looked the 3750's but they aren't gigabit. Also the 2960G-48-TC-L
but it doesn't appear to have Q-in-Q 802.1Q tunnelling

Any ideas?


-James
