EdgeRouters offer great performance and a good featureset, although for hardcore business/commercial use, there's still some things missing (features similar to carp/pfsync, HA, needs redundant power supply options, etc.).

They are incredibly fast though, and Dave Taht (cero-wrt fame, bufferbloat project) has been working with the directly to get fq_codel added in.

PS... I have never used the Ubiquiti switches, but FWIW, I absolutely love their wireless APs.

    The Cisco SG series is decent for semi-managed switches. I have
    installed a number of the SG-200 series for various clients.

    They support QoS, VLANs, etc...

    If you want Layer 3 capability,  though,  I am pretty sure you
    need to get a 300 or better. I know the 200s don't support it.

        It'd be odd to list 11(+) people here, but I have a gold mine
        of information / references for this thanks to the numerous
        folks who spoke up.  I really appreciate everyone's input.

        This is a good group.

        Thank you!

                Sorry about the topic, but when I had asked a question
                before about trying
                to tie into a wireless network through a pfSense box,
                your answers to what
                turned out to be another OT question actually led our
                IS group to give me
                full VPN access to the outside world.  I will be
                putting a pfSense box on
                our end of that connection.  Thanks again for that help!

                As was apparent in that post I am pretty ignorant of
                networking details, but
                do know that sometime in the near future I will be
                looking for a decent
                network switch to tie 10-11 dual cpu machines together
                into a cluster.
                Would anyone have a thought as to a good switch for this?

                The machines will have the Intel i210 Dual Port
                Gigabit Ethernet controller,
                if that makes any difference.

                Appreciate any thoughts!  Thanks!
