[nsp] While where on the topic of 6500 series.

Pro of native ---->>>> no CatOS
Pro of CatOS ----->>>> smaller MSFC config

All joking aside, It can be a hardware issue. Someone correct me if I'm
wrong.  My understanding is that some hardware only works in native or
Hybrid.  It really depends on the modules you want to use.  It can also
depend on what kind of configuration stuff you are using.  Again if I
remember right you can do HSRP in Hybrid but you can't in Native.
Things like that.  I'm sure other people on the list can get better
answers!

Thanks for the response Scott, are you aware of any pros or cons of
using native or hybrid?

We have a cat 6509 with a FlexWan and it worked in Hybrid and also works
in Native Mode.  We are running version 12.1(11b)E11 in Native mode.  

We are running a DS3 card and an 8 port serial card in our FlexWan.

Hello,

Someone mentioned earlier two IOS options for the 6500...a "hybrid" and
a "regular" version.  I'm under the impression that the hybrid IOS was
needed to support the Flexwan/MSFC functionality.  Thank you for your
time.
