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 ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the MICE-DISCUSS list, click the following link: http://lists.iphouse.net/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=MICE-DISCUSS&A=1
