Hello all,

We are looking for some direction and or real world experience on the
following ..


Core 7206VXR with 4 FastEther .. Two CAT 2924 switches .. 

We at this time have these Ethernet ports with primary and secondary IP
space bound to them supplying various servers within our networks ...

Of course this is BAD and we need to do something different if not for any
reason but to lesson the broadcasts to the Ethernet interfaces because of
all the IP subnets that are bound to them ..

So what we need to do is build a Ether channel from the router to the CAT's
..

7206 with two FastEthernets bound together via Ether Channel to each CAT
switch ..

Once this is done we would build VLANS over these for each IP subnet and
direct each to spec. ports on the CAT's .. 

Firstly is this the best way to handle this? .. Secondly How?

Brian
