• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Need L3 Managed Switch

I want to be able to route between VLANs. It's my understanding that I need a L3 switch to be able to do that. Otherwise, I would need a router and a L2 switch.

Layer 2 is easier for vlans imho.

I just purchased 2 of the 5224 from ebay, waiting for them to arrive. Hopefully they will fill my needs. I would rather have a Cisco, but I don't want to spend $$$. I need to get rid of my Netgear GS724T.

I have the 48 port version "V1" hardware and it blows....lacp is non-existant.

My HP 1910-16G I picked up "Bstock" from cdw for $135 or so is LEAPS & BOUNDS better..

With all that being said, why not get L2 & then run a pfsense vm or pfsense box?
