Easier to Lateral Into Investment Banking from S&T or Corporate Banking?

Is it easier to lateral into IB from S&T or Corporate Banking (assuming BB for both)? Also, would it be wiser to do this internally or look to other firms, especially if I want to make this change in about a year or less? Don't really want to get pigeon holed.
