we are a small networking company in the educational sector and we have a problem:-
One of our clients has a 24 port 3Com SuperStack hub installed, with only 5 connections!!, they want us to substitute our new 16 port unit also 3Com SuperStack for this and reuse the 24 port for the new classroom, which now requires more than 16 ports originally planned. Can anyone help with migrating the settings from the 24 port unit to the 16 without completely re-installing?.

Just, replace the hub. You should not need to configure anything is its only purpose is connectivity and if it doe snot do any routing. Just a suggestion, power off any routers that are plugged to the hub. I've had the interface on the router go when plugged it into a new router while being powered on. Don't know why, but it's a fail-safe task.
