I just got back from my lab. First try what a bear. Waiting on my results.
I asked the proctor about dlsw and token ring. He said that dlsw will be
ethernet only. No token ring interfaces in the lab.
He also said the the changes will be phased in starting oct 4. He gave the
indication that both labs would be running together for a while as the get
all the hardware up to date and twick the new labs.
