 Configuring Cisco and HP Switches
Can an HP ProCurve switch be configured to work with a Cisco switch? Say a for example 3750 or 6506.  By work I mean, be able to use VLANs create on Cisco side to work on HP side.  Also, for a Cisco trunk to work with on an HP switch.

Software/Hardware used:
Cisco 3750 & 6505, and HP Procurve switch

Hey I did posted couple of articles in my <a href="http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/network-technologies/how-to-configure-intervlan-routing-between-cisco-catalyst-switches-and-hp-procurve-switches-series-1/">Network Technology and trends blog </a> which explains trunking in both Cisco and HP Procure Switches as well as sample configuration. Cheers Yasir ------------------------ As long as both devices support open standards - like 802.1q trunking, then yes. We have several HP, Cisco, Juniper and Dell devices, that all inter-operate just fine..
