TAMCO,
I don't know the capabilities of the Cross Fire bridge, but I would think that if you could use it to bridge the Ethernet and Token together, a router would not be necessary. As for addressing, with a bridge it doesn't matter if you use the same adresss space, as long as you don't have...
Jason,
The only way you can traverse a VLAN is to route. You'll have to either install a router, MSM card, or you can install two NICs in your server and make it "dual-homed".

What version of IOS are you running on the 5509? What modules are installed? There is a doco on the Cisco web site that might help. It's at: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/winnt_dg.htm. Hope this helps.

skine,
The best you could do is load balance per VLAN. In short, you'll use the "set spantree portvlanpri" command to accomplish this. Assign roughly 1/2 of the VLANs to one uplink and the other 1/2 to the other link. It won't get you packet by packet, but it should do the trick...
Hello, UNIX72.
To answer your question, put your server on the same VLAN as the majority of your clients. Your goal should be to keep as much traffic as possible on one VLAN. What you are doing is building what's called a "one armed router"; that is, a router with a single LAN port...
I agree with jroysdon. I think you need to turn spantree portfast on (or at least shorten the STP blocking time). QUESTION: Do the PC's work after you warm boot or does this only happen on a cold boot?
Most NICs will not drop their link status on a warm boot and thus prevent the switch from...
Skoobe,
I have my CCNP/DP, MCSE and CNE. If you are looking for staying in networking I would definately recommend the CCNP. Also, once you get your NP, the DP cert is only one test away (look it up). On the other, hand I have found being dual (or triple) certified to be most rewarding ($$) as...
