Have 4 BPS 2000 cascaded.
As we installed some and HP blade rack, we have, temporarly (and I know it's not a good idea)plugged two UTP6 from two different Nortel ports and two different switch to a D-Link GB. I had to do this because BPS is 100Mb max and Blades NIC are 1000Mbps not negotiable. Now, I also had to activate flow control on all d-link ports, and spanning tree on my two Nortel ports. Everything is fine, except that one port has his spanning tree status set to forwarding (I don't know what that means, I'm newbie to Switches), and I can see on d-link stats monitor that it carries only Tx traffic and no Rx at all. Any idea anyone ?
thanks for any info
