Didn't we move away from those telecom trunks some time ago? :angel:

No, they're still teaching Trunking today!

Gotta have those trunk ports to satisfy your vlan fetishes

Those two networks are resiliently directly connected, the issue was what one of them was advertising to the other rather than connectivity issues.

Ah well!

So, not so much fat fingers as a not properly tested failover mechanism?

Nah, a series of unfortunate events.

I'll keep that one in mind next time I hose the network by accidentally bridging the wrong interface... :-P

The sequence in which my fingers fell on the keyboard was merely a series of unfortunate events, sir!

Wasn't a typo or trunking the wrong VLAN, it was a mistake highlighted by 'a series of unfortunate events'. In itself it would've been okay.
