I'm not sure I really care about all the features. From the pricing I saw
it's dirt cheap for what it does. I just want something that operates close
enough to a real switch that I can use it in a LAN environment and not

Hi.
I'm looking at the new 3600X series it was just released in Sept. I noticed
the no local switching for UNI ports. Is there a way to disable the UNI/NNI
relationship completely or enable local switching for UNI ports?
That might be true if you run the UNI-ports as switchports. OTOH you

Correct. In older versions of the IOS you were limited to the number of nni

I know from previous conversations that the architecture as well as some of
the defaults for the ME series are different than the traditional switching
platforms. I was curious if there were any reasons why I shouldn't use them
in a vanilla switching environment such as a LAN or a server farm. I
One thing to watch for is that there is no local switching among UNI ports.
You could either set your port type to NNI or you could set the vlan as a
community vlan to enable local switching. What platforms were you looking
at? ME3400, 3750ME? You should take note that the ME3400
series doesn't

Double check the specs on these.

3600X might be an option, otherwise there are other vendors with cheaper
L2-switch-only products with 24+ SFP ports on them.
The Nexus 5548 has 1G support coming sometime in the near future, so if
you are looking to buy further down the line it might be an option. The

The limit is 4 NNIs in the METROBASE image and unlimited in the IPACCESS

For the application the OP is looking at, the ME3600X/3800X
might be overkill. It's a very powerful switch, bordering on
a real router.
I'd keep things simple unless the OP needs all these
features.
