Hi; After reading https://www.servethehome.com/inexpensive-4x-2-5gbe-fanless-router-firewall-box-review-intel-j4125-i225-pfsense/, I bought a similar machine, which came with an N5105 CPU, 4 2.5G ethernet ports and an RJ45 COM port. The board is very similar to that of that article, so it's most...

Congratiulations! You made my day! I managed to find the exact BIOS version X10SDVT8.613.zip that was on my system. 8 means 2018, 6 is the month, and 23 is the day. Matches exactly the BIOS build date. Flashed this first from a Freedos USB Stick, Poweroff, Poweron, then used the same USB stick...

Firmware Revision : 03.72 Firmware Build Time : 05/10/2018 BIOS Version: 2.0 BIOS Build Time: 06/13/2018 Redfish Version : 1.0.1 I don't know where to get these versions.

Yes. 19.04.2022 11:53 5.452.275 BIOS_X10SDVT_20210507_2.3_STDsp.zip 19.04.2022 11:53 27.375.931 REDFISH_X10_388_20200221_unsigned.zip These are the files I uploaded. Frank.

Hi! I recently got two Supermicro X10SDV-TP8F systems. One works just fine, the other one behaved oddly. I started to note that the IPMI http showed the last system ethernet MAC addresses as ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, and others with random values, while BIOS shows the correct values. I set the system...

I'd recommend something with IPMI hardware and an Atom 3000 procesor. These are very low-power systems (25W TDP for the SOC) and ideal for small servers or NAS. I've got this one https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboard/A2SDi-H-TF with 8 6T SATA drives, 32G of RAM and an NVMe SSD...

Mikrotik actually has several devices with POE. I've got an CRS328-24P-4S+RM with 24 POE 1G RJ45 ports and 500W POE power and four SFP+ ports. This however is a switch, not a router. It has not the cpu power to do routing and encryption, although it is capable of.

I've used Mikrotik Routers in a project with several location linked via fiber, SFP(+) and encrypted (IPSEC) connections. Look at this: https://mikrotik.com/product/CCR1072-1G-8Splus This is very special hardware. Each SFP+ port has its own CPU core, and there are a total of 72 cores so you...

Hi; STH has posted a Youtube video presenting the Mikrotik CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+. I thought "Hey, great product - let's buy a bunch of these!". Problem: There are two of these switches, linked together either via a QSFP+ DAC Cable (Microtik Q+DA0001) or via QSFP+ fiber modules and cables. It...
