I ordered the HP Procurve 2810-24G since that is what Newegg stocked. They had the 2510 but not the 2510G. Since the 2810-24G is in their warehouse 4 hours from my house, I should be receiving the switch today.
Thanks for all the input. Webster From: Steve Ens [mailto:[email protected]] Subject: Re: Advice on switch for personal lab Procurve!!!

Looking for: 24 Gb ports Managed VLAN support Jumbo frame support 802.3ad LACP support would be nice Would prefer HP or Cisco mainly just to give me experience with them since they are what the vast majority of the networks I work on use. I am NOT a switch person so would like to get your input into two I found on Newegg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833316041 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833150064 Both are the same price. One friend told me to stay away from anything that says Cisco Small Business. Would like your advice and recommendation. Would prefer to buy from Newegg since I have a nice credit balance with them. If you need more input from please, please ask away. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
