I tested Catalyst 2924-XL-EN with 12.0(5)WC5a and I found that without L3 capability it does not seem to be affected. But with L3 connectivity, if you direct the attack at the VLAN1 interface it is definitely susceptible.
I believe directing the attack to VLAN1 should just kill the remote management and won't effect switching capability. Can anyone confirm?
Ah, you are right. I just tested it, and the switching through the catalyst continues without interruption. Only the management interface is unavailable. --steve
