Hi, I have a few 8100's running ver. 3.2.4.0 on the 8190SM CPU. We don't do any SMLT, SSL, QOS or much of anything fancy...just 802.1Q tagging multiple VLANS off our core 8600 across campus to these four 8100's then out to baystack 470/450 hybrid stacks in the closets.

I have a single 8600 as a core router with a single static route to get all traffic out to the internet. All the other routes are dynamically created as each vlan is created for internal connectivity between vlans. My question is under "VLAN/IP/OSPF" each vlan has the Designated Router...

Where do I get Device Manager 5.9.2.0 ??? I've upgraded my 8600 from 4.0.2.0 to 4.0.3.2 and not supported. Nortel tells you to use 5.9.2.0 but it doesn't exist on their website. What's the trick.

Anyone know when Nortel will be releasing a 4.1 code version for the 8600...I have a new chassis to build but I'm not a big X.0 fan. Thanks

I have an 8610 chassis that was originally configured on ver 3.1 something and at the time I was told not to use the cpu's mgmt links on the rudundant 8690SF's because it was a problem w/ that ver of code. We manage the passport using the gateway address of the subnet our dept sits on (any gw...

I have an 8100 ver 3.2.4.0 that was running ssh. I toggled the boot flag to "sshd false" and my ssh session dropped immediately as expected but I can not open a telnet session. Is there a telnetd flag that should have been enabled first ...that now needs to be enabled from a console session...

I currently have a core 8600 @ ver3.2.4 w/ about 35 vlans in a class A (subnetted as a class B)...10.250.x.x/22 configuration. My question is can I create a new straight class A set of VLANs in the 10.x.x.x/16 range and run both IP classes together as I cut-over from my current class B range to...
