We have run into some issue this week and I haven't been doing anything I have planned. I have read you post jFrady, but haven't had the chance to go back and check the configuration on our old switch to see if it used static routes (but I think it is)<br />
<br />
I should be able to wrap this question up by friday.<br />
<br />
Thanks for the help

Here are the points... This was a priority at the beginning of the week, but now it's not... Funny how things change.

As oxymoronic as it sounds constant change is the norm now! &nbsp;Thanks for the point and good luck.

This is our main switch because of it's layer 3 capabilities and we need to replace it because it is now the slowest switch we have, Probably 7 years old or more,<br />
<br />
I have been looking at an 3com 4200G 24-port switch but I'm not sure if it's going to be able to do what we need. <br />
<br />
What do you think experts?

Replacing an old 3Com superstack II  1100 switch that has a layer 3 modual

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
