Hi,
1.) Can we go with the above model for placing it in the distribution segment?
Scenario: We have 20 access switches and all those should connecst to a distribution segment.
We have 10 vlans with 11 subnets each with /24.
or
2.) We have 15 servers with mix of 100 mb & gig connection.
Can we place this switch as a server farm and connect to the distribution segment.
Is the mentioned switch is capable to play a role in distribution segemnt(1) or serverfarm(2).
According to the datasheet it provides basic L3 GTTD & provides basic RIP & static routing, upgradable to full dynamic IP routing.
What exactly is the above statement?
Need ur input...
Thanks & Regards,
M.Mohamed Raffiudeen...

You want to use a PoE switch in the data centre to be a distribution switch? What a waste of fine resource.

No way!
I ain't going to recommend a model based on your vague description.
Scenario: We have 20 access switches and all those should connecst to a distribution segment.

1. Are you going to do routing?
2. What kind of media are you terminating the switches and servers? Fibre? Copper?

Hi Loe,
1.) Inter Vlan routing & static routing...
2.) 2 fiber connection & remaining copper...

Hi,
First WS-C3750G-24PS-S is PoE switch, You can use Non-PoE switch as a Server Farm Switch, For distribution you can use 4500 series chassis.
3750 Series support IP BASE and IP SERVICES images. The difference between IPB and IPService as follows:
The IP Services Image enables a richer set of enterprise-class features including:
• Dynamic Routing Protocols:
– Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)
– Enhanced IGRP (EIGRP)
– Border Gateway Protocol Version 4 (BGPv4)
• Policy-based Routing (PBR)
– Allows superior control by enabling flow redirection regardless of the routing protocol configured
• Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM)
– For IP multicast routing within a network that enables the network to receive the multicast feed requested and for switches not participating in the multicast to be pruned-support for PIM sparse mode (PIM-SM), PIM dense mode (PIM-DM), and PIM sparse-dense mode
• Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP)
– Tunneling for interconnecting two multicast-enabled networks across non-multicast networks
• Private VLAN (PVLAN)
– Provides the ability to restrict communications between hosts at layer 2 through the use of primary and secondary VLANs.

Hi,
How about the model WS-C3750G-24TS-E1U which is IP service image and i beleive it is a non POE as info about poe is not mentioned in data sheet. Can we use this as a server farm.
Coming to the point of distribution segment. You have given me the right option, but management is concerned about IT budget. They have rejected our proposal. Can u suggest any other switch series/model...
Thanks...

If budget is a concern, then consider Cisco Refurbished Equipment.
