I have a book written here at Xylan that explains VLAN and switching topics at a high level quite nicely. I don't have any printed copies lying around, but I have the book in PDF format and can email it to you if you like. It's a 3.7 MB PDf file; I can split it if your mailer will choke on that me. Let me know if you want it. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
