3255.0. "switching vs routing white papers?" by RDMCS3::STUART (Scott Stuart - NPB SE - 410.315.9954) Thu Feb 08 1996 16:33

    cross posted in Common_brouters conference:
    
    At the VA hospital - US wide - we are in a battle with cisco or cisco
    supporters in the accounts who are trying to push small, fixed subnets,
    and IGRP as a routing protocol.
    
    We are pushing flat networks at each site with switching, OSPF, and
    variable sized subnet masks (necessary because of variable sized
    locations).
    
    Can anyone send me pointers to white papers and/or presentations 
    that address:
    1.  switching vs. routing
    2.  link state vs. vector routing algorithms
    3.  OSPF
    
    
    thanks for any help.

    There's a collection of white papers at the following URL which
    is on the Network Products Business internal web page.

    Maybe there's something there that you can use.
