Upgrading to 2950 switch from 2924 - process? open original image

Hi: Presently have a single 2924 Switch connected to a 1720 Router and a PIX



515. 4- ports on the 2924 have died so we are replacing with a 2950.

Would like this to be as quick and non-disruptive as possible. Ideally pre-configure the new 2950, then simply disconnect the 2924 and make the connections to the 2950.


  1. Is this practical?
  2. What information do I need to get from the 2924 in order to configure the 2950?
  3. Am I safe in assuming the 1720 and 515 won't require any changes?

Thanks PS


You may wish to investigate the Cisco Catalyst 2950 Configurator Wizard:

You should be able to use the same config on the 2950. This should get you at least 98% there. When you paste in the new config, note any lines that the 2950 doesn't like.
