This question came up a few weeks ago in the midst of a discussion
about the RB493/450 etc.
Someone (I don't remember who) asserted that when using the built-in
switch capabilities of these routerboards, that the actual function is
like a hub, not a switch.
Anybody know for a fact that this is the case?
What about the RBs that are actually supposed to be a switch (e.g.
RB250)?
Would be a shame if they really are acting as hubs.
The RB250 is DEFINITELY a switch. I have not tried the 400 series
devices, but you can rest assured that the 250 is a switch.
