IMO, you can't go wrong with the HP ProCurve line for switches. Ours have all the features I could want (telnet, SSH, web GUI, VLANs, MAC filtering, trunking, mirroring, SNMP, auto-diagnostics, more). Good manuals. They have better warranty, ease-of-use, and price than Cisco. Free basic management software. Cisco may be king of routers, but that doesn't necessarily translate to their switches being better. YMMV, of course. Haven't really used a 3Com switch since the 100 megabit days. They seemed good in terms of quality. Didn't spend much time with the management features, so I can't comment on that. -- Ben ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
