The virtual trunk being the link to the MSFC, i.e., on the cat side..

Port  Name                 Status     Vlan       Duplex Speed Type
----- -------------------- ---------- ---------- ------ ----- ------------
15/1  t_above1-msfc-2      connected  trunk        full  1000 Route Switch

I'm wondering if this actually works as a ISL or dot1q trunk to the
MSFC, or if this is just how it chooses to display a "Route Switch"
connection.



Aside from that, thanks for your response, and to bambi at hughes.com.au as
well.
