    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    Plug a computer directly into the management port (not any of the main switch ports,) set a static ip on that computer (192.168.1.2, mask /24 aka 255.255.255.0) set the switch to 192.168.1.1 (same mask) and try again.

    Yeah, that's what I'd been referring to them as. Sadly I'm used to working with stuff like this:

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around getting my VLAN config to work. I have two kinds of ports I want on this switch. Regular Device Ports that are untagged on VLAN 5 only "Super" Ports that are on multiple additional VLANs (10,20,30,40,50,90) and who's devices will ONLY use VLAN...

    Brocade ICX Series (cheap & powerful 10gbE/40gbE switching)

    My stupid unifi switch has become a problem and I want it gone. Am I missing something, because here's an ebay listing for a 100 dollar ICX725048P, which looks like the switch in the OP that has 8 sfp+ 10gb ports and 48 POE 1gb ports and draws 50 watts (plus POE of course.) Is this a different...

    I guess...this is a "great deal". Only $5M. Any takers? :)

    How lazy. They don't even bother to list what they actually have, they just copy and pasted a dell invoice from the order and slapped it on eBay. Something tells me this won't sell.

    Not a deal. This junk is clogging up my RSS.

    MikroTik CSS326-24G-2S+RM Mini Review Cheap 24x 1GbE 2x 10GbE

    Use it to connect a 10gb workstation that's far away and also add 24 1gb ports over a single fiber line, so you don't have to run a fiber cable AND a cat5 cable. That's what I'm using it for. I got this switch the week it came out and discovered later that IPv6 wouldn't work correctly over it...

    FreeNAS Corral Canned – Development Essentially Halted for Now

    Please learn to read between the marketing BS. Corral being "re-based" means they're just rewriting everything all over again. Notice they don't commit to any of the features Corral has (had) but say they'll look into it.

    FreeNAS Corral Canned – Development Essentially Halted for Now

    I've seen this happen many times before. I give it 6 months before all the devs have quit and the project is dead. Anytime there's a failure of leadership this badly, it generally means the inside is rotten to the core.

    Sophos Home is outright DANGEROUS

    This is correct. I use PFSense for my firewall, but I've heard good things about the UTM. This is about the antivirus software. Sophos Home

    Sophos Home is outright DANGEROUS

    Not sure about snapshots, but as soon as I accessed my file level backups, it killed the files from them. Luckily there's an offline backup I have, but I'm not plugging it in until I remove Sophos.

    Sophos Home is outright DANGEROUS

    So I was attracted to Sophos Home. It offered free AV that got rave reviews as far as detection as well as central web management. What's not to love? If this program finds a false positive (like when I was going through my backups) it simply DELETES THE FILE with NO WAY TO RECOVER. There's no...
