Yep. The 2924 replaced the HP again temporarily, ironically... it's the last 2924 I own, used to have a bunch of them and they've all died except that one, and of the bunch of HPs I have in various places (16xx, 1800, 24xx, 25xx, 4000, 53xx), this is the first HP switch I've ever lost (knock on wood). The one that failed is a 1800-24G, cheapest managed 24 port gig switch they make. I bought a E2510G-24 to replace it, will use the 1800-24G replacement somewhere less critical. Though I know our customers have at least 10 of those in production networks and this is the first one I've heard of failing, I feel better with the enterprise-class switch in the datacenter. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
