Folks,
I’m looking for a 1000 Mbps switch with 32+ ports. It’s for a home LAN. I’ve found some refurbished Cisco switches which look like a great deal.
Is a managed switch that much more difficult to use than a simple, unmanaged, switch?
Is the Cisco name sufficient to trust a refurbished unit?
Do Cisco managed switches have some sort of licensed OS I need to buy in order to use the switch?
Thanks
