i am looking to replace our 10Mbps switches. I want to put our heavier users on gigabit as well as our servers. Everyone else on 100Mbps fast eth.
i want to be able to see whats going on through the network and possibly control traffic as well as some of the other management features (web console would be nice). The fast eth switches should have a couple gigabit ports on them to link them to other switches.
is it better to have 2x24port switches or just to get a big 48 port?
i was looking at 3com superstack switches. They seem resonably priced. i was also looking at what cisco had to offer, but dont know too much about cisco switches.
any advice?
thanks!
