Hi,

I want to know whether Cat3550 supports DLSW or not?

Hi,

Even i couldn`t find anything about DLSw on 3550. But 6500 with sup2/msfc2 will support it and here is the FAQ for this :

DLSw is not supported on the Supervisor Cat3550 III/IV. For networks with SNA and IP protocols, you can route the IP traffic on Catalyst 4000 Supervisor III/IV and bridge the SNA traffic with DLSw switching on Cisco IOS software on an external route.
