I work for a medium sized NPO that runs on love when times are tough. I say that because lots of our equipment is donated but we do buy new with support when needed.
Currently our access and distribution layer are running Cisco 3560's and similar with Palo Alto's at the Core/Edge.
All our floors/access link up to the distribution via fiber, which is quite limiting for redundancy topologies since we're limited to 4 sfp's per device running our distribution layer. You get the picture.
I'm interested in buying two SFP switches to allow us to run redundant fiber from each switch over two distribution switches. Knowing that Cisco would cost us our entire operating budget (joking) is it stable to run trunks between cisco/non-cisco? If so, any recommendations on manufacturers for these distribution switches?
