[j-nsp] How to connect the SSG500M to a switch 2900 cisco

[Payam Chychi]

Hey Juan,

It depends on if you are wanting to pass multiple vlans to the switch or 
have it as a flat vlan. If you need more than 1 vlan then yes, the 
switch must be setup as a trunk port but if you only need 1 vlan then 
you can setup the switch as an access port.

On the ssg500 you define a physical port to be used as a trunk by 
creating sub-interfaces or "unit" depending on if your using screenOS or 
junos

SSG ethernet1/1 <--------connect to--------> Cisco
SSG ethernet1/1.100         =                     vlan 100
SSG ethernet1/1.200         =                     vlan 200

Now you can assign a switch port on your cisco to be in say vlan 100 and 
define it as an access port.

hope this helps
