I would like to know about connecting data closet switches to the core with redundant links. Can I implement OSPF on the core and connecting switches and eliminate spanning tree? In this environment do I really need VLANs per subnet or can I just subnet? I’m starting with new Cisco 6509 switches running VSS. I’m using the new switch to route between subnets. All data closet switches and server switches will have redundant links back to the core.
