Hi everyone,
i would like to know what is the different between using the Matrix ports than using a a trunk between the switches?
(i have 3 switches connected to each other with matrix).
The other question, is that i am working in an enviroment where there are many broadcasts (nothing to do against it, its our software developers that creates them). and also we have many other hub/switches connected to the main 3com switches (From the small test labs).
Should i enable Spanning?
broadcast storm control ?
and which multicast system is better (IGMP or the 802.1p)?
I am really not switches type guy..., its just i arrive to an office where working with the network is a really hard thing! (all the ports where set on the switch to 10HD...)
Thanks,
Zed.
