[c-nsp] Linerate 100mb on 7204 NPE-225?

[Robert A. Hayden]

A couple followup notes here.

Currently, the 4003s aggregate some 10/100/1000 copper and and a a whole 
mess of 100FX fiber.  In a perfect world a 3750 stack would suffice, but 
the 100FX makes that difficult.   We're thinking to just one-arm off a 
router of some kind and continue to use the 4003 as a aggregator/switch.  
Lots of options.

Recent problems with the 3550 and 3750 lines makes us a little skittish.
