Does anyone know if I can use a 3500 XL, and some how do a IOS upgrade or change a chip on the motherboard to make it a Layer 3 switch? Thank You, Victor | ||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options there wouldn't be anything supported. The 3500XL series uses the PowerPC403 processor; the 2900XL series uses the PowerPC403GA processor. Nothing else appears to use the same processor. If you were able to find a layer 3 device that used an -older- PowerPC model, you -might- be able to get somewhere (but I wouldn't expect much out of it.) I say "older" PowerPC model in that a newer PowerPC CPU might happen to have features that are not backwards compatible. | ||||||||||||||||
