Anyone love/hate the PowerConnect line of switches from Dell?
- by Rob Bergin
I am looking at replacing some unmanaged 16 port store bought GB switches and wanted to go with Cisco but it may be cost prohibitive.
Instead I am looking at ProCurve or Dell's PowerConnect line up.
I am looking for SNMP, Management, VLANs, and SFLOW would icing on the switch cupcake.
I would get the 6224 or the 6248 and then maybe add the RPS-600 to it for redundant power.
I think the RPS-600 supports multiple switches.
Rackspace is also a little challenge so I am trying to do it with as little Rack Units as possible.
Ideally I would go with two 6224's or a single 6248 and then do two VLANs.
Thanks for any feedback.
