[c-nsp] VLAN Trunking from Netgear GS748T to Catalyst 1924EN

[Skeeve Stevens]

Hey guys,

	I can imagine you reading the subject line and going "huh? What? Is
he serious?!", but unfortunately we are slowly migrating a network and need
to do this.

	We are putting Netgear GS748Ts on the edge of the network and slowly
working our way into the core. so at present we have a need of having VLAN's
on the above NetGear model going into a Trunk port on a 1924.

	The 1924 seems fine and the port is in trunk mode 'trunk on', which
I am pretty sure is all you need.

	Apparently the people who designed the netgears smoke crack and
they've called 'Trunking' something we call Ether Channelling (combining
more than 1 physical link into a large virtual link) in the Cisco world.
took me a week to figure that out.

	The NetGear supports tagged and untagged VLAN's, but I can't figure
out how to make them flow down to the 1924EN's. 

	Has anyone tried to get these working before? And has any result
worth mentioning?
