with our billing system that would solve the problem.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>I haven't been able to get CER
to reliably display the switchport description from 3750 switches, do you
happen to use CER with that model? Just curious.. I've noticed it does show the
descriptions correctly for 4500's, would love to get the 3750 port desc in
there too.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>CER can read in the switchport description and will provide
that as a part of the internal emergency alert. If you only have one open
front door with a receptionist it might not make sense to divide the ERL's into
exact locations. Just pass the building address with the front door to
911 and then send the specific cube location to your internal emergency
staff. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>using CER here. Each switchport has its own location, so its
not a problem for example to have part of the switch service one floor/area,
and the other part service a difference location. It does mean that your
network support staff must be aware that if they change where a port is patched
to, a change may also need to be made to the CER configuration for that port.<o:p></o:p></p>

that. <o:p></o:p></p>

font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black'>Just wondering...for those of
you who have enabled E911, either using Cisco ER or 911Enable, can a switch
and/or switch-stack have different "locations" associated with it? In
our current layer 1 model, we install a switch stack in a particular space
which services both horizontal and vertical space. For example, a switch stack
in one corner of the building could service half the desks on each of four floors,
and a switch stack in another corner of the building could service the other
half on each of four floors.<br>
<br>
How will that complicate things going forward if we want to do E911?<br>
