replace HP ProCurve with Cisco

[sungajjar]

What is recommended to replace below HP ProCurve Switches with Cisco?

stacked HP ProCurve Switch 4108gl (with 4 x 24 port 10/100 modules, 1 x 6 port 1000T module ,4 x 1000 Fibre)

& HP ProCurve Switch 2810-24G - need equivalent Cisco 3750

Looking for equivalent 3560 switches for below HP switches:

HP ProCurve Switch 2524

HP ProCurve Switch 2626

HP ProCurve Switch 408

HP ProCurve Switch 1800-8G

HP ProCurve Switch 408

Thanks

You're routing on the 4108gl? If not, 3750 might not be the best option.

A 3750 stack of two 3750V2-48TSs and a 3750G-24TS-1U might meet your requirement. This would provide 96 10/100 ports, 24 10/100/1000 ports and 12 SFP ports.

These need to be routing capable? If so, more or less match your required port density and port bandwidths. 3560 list can be seen here: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps5528/prod_models_comparison.html

If routing not needed, you might choose from: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps5528/prod_models_comparison.html

The question I am interested in is do you want a Layer 2 or a Layer 3 switch?

The only Layer 2/3 stackable switch is the 3750 while for Layer 2 alone the 2755 is a candidate.

Cisco Catalyst 2975 Switch with LAN Base Software

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps10081/data_sheet_c78-502660.html

One of the key features:

48 10/100/1000 PoE ports and 4 Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) uplinks

High-speed stacking for up to nine switches and support for cross-stack EtherChannel

Unified stack management to simplify management of the network access layer

Hope this helps.
