CRS config for big network

Tue Dec 17, 2013 5:40 am

Hi Guys,

I need to install 5 CRS switches in to a rack. I will have to install these in series. What's the best config to run on these in that configuration? I'm looking at linking them via one port only.

usually you would do a circle but since the crs doesn't do stp...

Do yourself a favour and buy real switches, even managed netgear have more switching features.

Only with stp or something similar. Without that, it's called a loop, which is bad.
