Hello again, all.
We had 2 Cisco Catalyst 3500XL's fried by a power surge, our network guy quit almost a year ago (and wasn't replaced), and I'm in a dire situation. I've looked everywhere on the
Internet, and can't find a thing, so I sincerely hope someone can help me. I need to replace the ruined switches, and have no idea what to do.
The old setup went like this: A Cisco ASA 5505 router with VLAN 161 configured on port6. An Ethernet cable ran from 5505/Port6 to Catalyst1/Fa0/48. Catalyst1 had VLAN 177 created
on it, and Catalyst1/Gig0/2 cascaded to Catalyst2/Gig0/1.
Anything plugged into Catalyst1 or Catalyst2 was able to communicate with our entire infrastructure.
I apologize if this is poorly written or explained, but I'm a Help Desk guy who is now stuck trying to figure this out. If anyone could give me a suggestion, or get me pointed
in the right direction, I would much appreciate it.
Many Regards,
Jim
