HI Brain,

Can it run Cisco IOS? I remember seeing a post somewhere stating the
Olicom-8600 can run Cisco code.

Thanks,

I know that many of you studying for your CCIE lab are looking for good
deals on some of the more critical peices of CCIE lab gear.

As some of you may or may not know, the Catalyst 3900 series was
originally made by Olicom, and known as the Olicom OC-8600 (Catalyst
3900)
and the OC-8601 (Catalyst 3920). Later Cisco made these there catalyst
line.

I have a handfull of Olicom OC-8601 switches, which have the same
interface as a Catalyst 3920. These are 20 port token ring switches.
They do not support CDP, since they are the Olicom version, but they
support everything else including the identical interface and method of
creating TrCRF's and TrBRF's, which is the part most seem to concentrate

on for CCIE lab study.

These are very minty and clean. I am making them available to this list

for $800/each. This is a very good deal on an affordable solution.
These
are running the latest version of the Olicom code, which like i said is
is
an identical interface as the Cisco code only this says Olicom instead
of
Cisco and does not support the CDP part of it.
