We have a stack of two EX4500s that form the core of our network in a hub and spoke configuration. Our 24 edge data closets all have stacks of EX4200s that terminate at the core via single mode fiber...

I assume you mean the configuration. And yes these platforms both run the same layer 2 services code so your primary job in this transition will be the interface name changes to move things over to...

Hello Georgi, I believe I understand. You technically don't need a separate switch to run QinQ. And you don't really need to loop/crossover 0/0/1 and 0/0/2. You can do this very simply and take...

One last question. The output of the ELS translator is a series of set commands that can then be applied to the EX4600 switch. Before we actually get our new E4600 switches, is there any way to see...
