interesting..... we had some 1955's on test a while back and i could not
get networking going either. Everything looked fine but just no packets
passed. Turns out after lots of faffing that the interfaces on the back
of the blade appear 'swapped' around so where on an 1855 we'd configure
switch 1 for the VLANS etc we had to configure switch 2 to bring up eth0
on the blade.
So it seems that the 1950 and the 1955 display the same characteristics
(which you'd expect i guess as they are the same thing) - That might
help avoid some wasted time for someone.
