Hi,
A quick question, we have 4 4400's stacked in a rack with 2 more connected via fibre by one of the expansion modules at the back ( 10/100) we have just had a few new servers that have gigabit nic's and have purchased a gigabit switch (netgear gsm 7224 ) at the moment i've just connected the gigabit switch into the 10/100 networt via a patch cable from a port on the netgear to another port on the 3com, I know this is not ideal, but it was the fastest way to get it up an running, what i would like to do ( if this is possible ) is purchase a gigabit module and put it in one of the unoccupied expansion slots on the 4400 and then connect it to the netgear via one of the fibre connections on the front of the switch.
My question's are....
Is this possible?
and also
Is this the best way to do this...?
If anyone has any better ideas could you let me know please.
Thanks in advance,
Mick.
