A layer 2 device can be used when all machines are configured to be on the same
LAN, when another layer 3 device is present to do the routing if needed, or when
no routing between VLANs is needed.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
HP switches have a lifetime guarantee with next-business-day advance
replacement with no additional contract purchase.
HP switches are not compatible with Cisco's proprietary protocols (ISL, PagP,
PVST, etc.) which could be a problem for integration in some legacy Cisco
environment. However, such a case is quite unlikely to arise and most of the time
workarounds can be found.
The stacking possibilities of the Cisco 3750E series permit to have fully active
LACP teams for redundancy to the hosts.
