I thought Urs was looking for an IVL switch, and as far as I know you just can't get IVL switches for 350 EURO's... > Note that they are a bit loud, you don't want one at your desk. /me has a 2524 @home... And yes, I can hear the vent scream throughout the whole house :-(. The 2524 is definitely SVL since I cannot have two adsl modems connected to a single switch and use pppoe (german site). Hmmm... maybe I stand corrected: you *can* get switches that have some kind of IVL for about 60 euro: Get a WRT54G or similar, and install openwrt on it. Configure the ports for tagging. I haven't tried how much these switches are real IVL, but reading the documentation they should more or less be IVL. -- begin LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.txt.vbs I am a signature virus.
