Dennis, We've had our AS/400 in an Ethernet switch now for 5 years. Never a problem. Thanks, Mark Mark D. Walter Senior Programmer/Analyst CCX, Inc. mwalter@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.ccxinc.com Dennis Munro <DMunro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To: "Midrange List (E-mail)" <MIDRANGE-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx> orp.com> cc: Sent by: Subject: Switch or hub midrange-l-bounces@xx drange.com 04/29/2003 03:10 PM Please respond to Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Several years ago when a new building was built & a new network was installed, we plugged the 400's into a switch. After much trial & tribulation, we were told to plug the 400's into a hub. We are about to upgrade all our switches, routers, & hubs to accommodate a new phone system & AT&T dedicated T1's to our two remote mining facilities. The question is: Do I still plug the 400's into a hub or a switch and/or is there a setting that could be changed to allow use to use a switch? In case it makes any difference we currently have 3Com 3000 switches & 3Com dual speed 500 hubs with the router being built into the phone system, which is ten years old. This ancient but still functioning equipment has caused other problems & it will be nice to see it out of here. QoS was something we are not able to currently do but that will change with the new equipment. The equipment we will replace it with will be Cisco 2620 routers, Cisco 3550 and 2950 switches, & no hubs - which is why I'm asking the question in case we still need to have a hub for the 400's. Thanks - Dennis. Dennis Munro "I love deadlines. I especially like the whooshing sound they make as they go flying by."
