From the clients network (208.53.164.0) I could only reach the Cisco router but was unable to reach Internet. The only quick solution was to connect Switch 1 with Switch 2. Any ideas why this didn't work? _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
