I run the Netgear GS728TP, altho VLANning requires you to hold a broom
in the air while holding your mouth crooked and hopping on one leg.

Not that I know of - PITA isn't it ?

I've used a few HP switches (mostly Procurve 1800 & 1900) at work and been very 
happy with them - but I don't think either of these models do your RFC 3376 
IGMP. A quick search for "procurve rfc 3376 24G"* gives a selection of other 
models that appear to have this feature - the 2510-24G seems to have it and be 
quite affordable second hand.

* I included 24G to see 24 port gigabit models.


They tend to be available on secondhand sites, and as long as the previous 
owner hasn't had a warranty claim**, then you get a lifetime warranty on them. 
And the warranty service is brilliant (we had a couple of failures, but then 
our environment wasn't "kind" to them) - fill in the details online, you get a 
replacement switch the next day, you swap all the bits over (rack mounting 
ears, modules, etc), then you ship the broken one back.

** Technically the warranty only applies to the original purchaser, but as long 
as they haven't registered it in their own name then HP need never know ;-)

[Shorewall-users] Off Topic: Recommendations for 16 port 1GB switch supporting pVLAN & Igmp v3

[Johannes Graumann]

Hello,

After I was pointed years ago to soekris.eu for a appropriate home FW
and was/am very happy with that, I'm trying again for segmenting the
appliances/IoT part of the network downstream of the FW ...

1) Are there any nice, comprehensive interfaces to sort through the
plethora of switches available with filters for more than the bare
bones protocol requirements usually present?

2) Can anyone recommend a switch that fulfills the following minimal
requirements: 
- rack-mountable
- 1GB transfer rate
- >= 16 ports
- private VLAN support
- IGMP v3 (needed for Telekom streaming TV offering in Germany).

Thanks for any hints.

Sincerely, Joh
