[c-nsp] VSS question...

[Aaron Spitz]

It's a 20Gb starter if you use both 10G ports on each sup, which has
worked fine for us with relatively light use.  According to the sales
pitch, it is also trivial to bond up to eight ports from a 10G line card
to increase the backplane between chassis.  We installed VSS as a
datacenter core about a year ago and it has been totally peachy except
for some random crashes that were fixed in SXH4.  With a pair of 3750G's
top of rack, I say good riddance to STP!

Hi,

> So, 3750 stack on steroids?

not really - with the 3750 you get a 32 or 64Gb backplane
stacking mechanism (stckwise or stackwise+) - whereas
with VSS its a 10Gb starter...
