David This is not direted to you. I have a question about CSCO and networking ingeneral. Correct me if I am wrong on anything Layer 3 swiching is routing at wirespeed, Say 10/100 MB/S If you have a big CSCO Router, say 12-18 months old, That router has to be programed Right ? Could you replace that router with a layer 3 switch ? If you can, Do you still need the extensive programing that The conventional router needs ? (I have been lead to believe that Routers need lots of programing) 2) If you don't, then is a layer 3 switch simmilar to an inteligent hub albeit a large hub. I am trying to get some clarification on this Thanks. Jim Patterson
