«

at a customer site there is a 4503 that has a sup engine with 2 Gbic's
labeled as uplink1 and uplink2. Can these be used? I couldn't get them to
work.

Slot 3 on the 4503 has a 2 Gbic card, these I got to work.

Customer wants to be able to use the Gbic's on the sup engine.

Also, how do you assign an ip address to the 4503 to allow remote access
for maintanance?

TIA

Anthony
