Hello,

The MICE2 10Gig switch was installed after the User Group meeting last
week.

I wasn't really sure what the plan for management is, so I went with the
"worry about it later" strategy (I really like that!). I connected &
configured the out-of-band management port so we can get into it
remotely when we decide we want to setup formal
management/monitoring/whatever. I also installed a 10Gig connection for
CNS and have sent a request to FWR for a cross-connect to the MICE1
Switch. (CNS will pay the monthly on the cross connect).

The switch is a Cisco WS-C3560E-12D-S. This has 12 10Gig X2 ports. The
10Gig ports can be converted to Two 1Gig SFP ports with the installation
of a TwinGig module. We went ahead and put in eight TwinGig modules for
now. That will give us an option for MICE members that would like a
1Gig fiber connection. They will need to provide an SFP for a 1Gig or
X2 for 10Gig.

Thanks,
Steve
