[nsp] 2950's vulnerable

[Siva Valliappan]

the Catalyst 2950 is a layer 2 device that runs IOS.  so your transit
traffic will not be affected even if the device is dos-ed.  however your
management interface to the box can be DOSed.  so you will need to
take steps to protected the "Management VLAN" interface.
