Have you considered re-tagging the VLANs on a cheaper device before the
7600 (which I assume you're sparing because of port cost) and re-tagging
them to the same VLAN, with some private vlan conf on there to keep VLANs
from talking to each other (assuming you want that)? Then the 7600 will
just get all sites on one VLAN.
Re-tagging VLANs does take up a few ports on a cheap switch, but it may be
cheaper than using up more ports in the 7600 and the 3rd party transport.
And I never said it wasn't ugly.
