I figured it out. It does work! You do need one of the latest IOS though: 12.3.26 or 12.4.5
I do have that IOS on my 2610's BB routers. Problem was that I was being VERY stupid! I was thinking that I could get the "encapsulation" command on the Main Ethernet interface. That will NEVER happen. It is available ONLY on the sub-interfaces! When I created one, then the encapsulation was available there! I should have known that. That was very silly! Sorry about that. --- On Fri, 7/3/09, Joe Astorino <[email protected]> wrote: From: Joe Astorino <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [OSL | CCIE_RS] Question about encapsulation dot1q Ethernet 10-BaseT interfaces To: "Carlos Valero" <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Date: Friday, July 3, 2009, 1:24 AM HI Carlos, On my personal home rack, my 2610s do not have this feature either. I think you can do it on a FastEthernet interface though... On Thu, Jul 2, 2009 at 5:41 PM, Carlos Valero <[email protected]> wrote: Hello Joe, Any word on this? I'm just curious to know how you are able to do Trunking on a 10-BaseT interface. I thought that wasn't possible. At least not on a 2610! I've tried with several IOS versions including the latest one (12.3.26) and the "encapsulation" command is not available. Please let me know. Thank you! --- On Wed, 7/1/09, Joe Astorino <[email protected]> wrote: From: Joe Astorino <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [OSL | CCIE_RS] Question about encapsulation dot1q Ethernet 10-BaseT interfaces To: "Carlos Valero" <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Date: Wednesday, July 1, 2009, 7:53 PM Hi Carlos, As soon as I can get access to a Proctor Labs rack, I will let you know.

Labs Vol 3.9 & 3.10 use encapsulation dot1q on the Ethernet interfaces on these Routers. But so far I have NOT found an IOS version that allows do1Q on an Ethernet interface. I thoughy you could only do that with a Fast Ethernet interface. Could you please let me know?

I would have to go through every lab and really see if there are any situations where you HAVE to have a 3560 to do something on a particular switch.

I have 2 3550's and 2 3560's. I see that the Version 11 Workbook 1 topology has 3 3560's, well that's not happening financially over here for quite sometime (if ever if my wife is to be believed). My question is where should I use the 2 3560's to get the best coverage of capabilities? I have to assume it will make a difference on some of the Switching labs, but I don't see a huge impact on the layer 3 stuff other than IPv6.
