[c-nsp] Cisco Switch Packet Buffering Matrix?

[Skeeve Stevens]

Hey all,

I am doing some iSCSI implementations are the moment and are looking at which switch models are best for different iSCSI rollouts we're doing.

I am wanting to know which 29xx and 35xx/37xx series switches have the following:


-          Size of packet buffering per model

-          If the PB is per port or shared

-          Is there one or more classes of PB classification

-          If the PB is shared, is it per switching module (i.e. 8/12 port block) or across the entire switch

-          If the 10GB model is plugged in, does it have its own PB, or does it share the main boards?

I looked in the Portable Product Sheet - http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/tools/quickreference/index.html  but found nothing, and Google and Cisco.com proved useless.  Maybe there is a reason for this, or my searchfoo is weak.
