    XP can ping but can't be pinged

    VLANs & Switching/Service performance

    Yes, to anwser the number of switch question. Vlans are individual Layer II subnets or networks. It makes little difference if you have 1 or 20 vlans on a switch. The only need for a second switch would be more ports or a dual attached server arrangement (high availability). VLAN trunking...

    VLANs & Switching/Service performance

    This is a very subjective situation. Here we go... 1st- Layer III is involved. You are sending Ethernet Frames to the router which get converted into packets then sent to the destination network or VLAN (layer III) then converted back into Ethernet frames. 2nd- Performance: The rate at which...

    Cisco Pro
