| Hello guys
I need some help, I'm trying to setup a vlan between two swithes, which one of them is 1900 and have a 6.0 version ,I didn't notice any command to set up vlan ,I would like to update to latest version.but Cisco site won't give me access to sofware as a guess.
I'm studing for CCNP,but I'm not in network field yet
What can I do to get the latest version?
Do you know any book or site where to get some labs?
thank you

| Hey,
From my experience there is no way to configure VLAN's on 1900's. We have just set up an environment in which the access layer is a mixture of 3548's and 1900's - mainly because we already had the 1900's in the environment and the business didn't want to spend more money than they needed to, the old story.
Anyway, the 1900's are plugged into the 3548's and by assigning the port on the 3548 (into which a 1900 plugs) to the VLAN you want, you make it part of the VLAN.
So on the 3548 you have:
interface FastEthernet0/48
description Link to 1900
duplex full
speed 100
switchport access vlan 12
Bearing in mind that the 3548 has a trunk port to a 6500 which has been configured for VLAN 12.
To gain management access to the 1900 via telnet, you need to give it an IP address in VLAN 12's range.
Hope this makes sense!  | |

| I have a lab from cybex for CCNA, setting a vlan between two 1900 switches and a router,
actually none of the command are similar to mine, I was thinking it could be related becouse mine have 6.0, and actually they had version 8.
what do you think?
thank you for your help
Gilbert.

| when you say normal ios there are major differences in "set" based and
ios based switches.
cat 5000's are set based
3500's are ios based.
for instance a 2820 uses a menu,
if you have enterprize software you have access to
an ios (not fuly featured like a router)
as well as standard and enterprize firmware. | |
