[c-nsp] OT: 2960S

[Andrew Jones]

The first release of IOS that supported routing on 2960S was useless.

I deployed a stack of 4 2960S with about 4 or 5 vlans performing intervlan routing and a single static default route, and the individual switches would constantly crash and reload.

Had to wait nearly 6 months for  a new IOS to be released to fix the issue.

I had problems with stacking these when they first came out but I think it was either a software issue that's been fixed or an environmental issue where we were freezing the units in a room that was too cold.  Otherwise I don't think there's been too many horror stories with 2960S's.  I would rather spend a little more and install 4500-E's myself though.
