Experts,

I am new to Extreme world. I have cisco 4507(Multiple VLANs) and trying to trunk or connect Extreme BD8810(multiple VLANS) so that both can see the segments behind them. Both are L3 switches. Please let me know the possiblities. We went thru a merger and the other shop had extreme BD that i am tring to connect with CISCO

I appreciate your help
Thanks

You need to make sure your VLAN IDs match up, and your trunking ports have the same 802.1Q tagging between the Cisco and the BD.
You'll also want to make sure you don't have any overlapping subnets between the two systems, or your routing will be screwed up.
