Thanks! I doubt any of this can be set on consumer routers though. This is why I was thinking of adding a managed switch in between.
But if I understand it correctly the link between b and c (the router and the managed switch) will not use VLAN tagging (or at least the router won't care about...
I want both VLANs to access the router (and thus the internet), but not to each other. If both VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 have access to the router, can't a package go from the VLAN 1 to the switch, to the router, then back to the switch and to VLAN 2?
Dear STHers,
I have started to learn about VLANs and have a probably very simple question.
I have a device that needs connection to the internet but not to other devices on the network.
I am considering setting up a network that looks like this:
a) Internet

b) Consumer router (that as far...
The QNAP QNA-T310G1S (Thunderbolt 3 to SFP+) does not have a fan. Note the S in the end, which is for SFP+.
This is in contrast to the QNAP-QNA-T310G1T (Thunderbolt 3 to RJ45 10Gbase-T) which has a fan and has many user complaints about being loud.
Hi! If you still have these 16GB SSDs I'd be happy to buy two. What would postage to Sweden cost? (I wasn't sure if the stock status in the first post is updated. It says 18.)
Does anybody know what the power consumption of a Dell server is when the server is off but with IDRAC running?
In particular I am interested in 12 and 13 gen systems such as R720/R630/R730 if it matters.
The reason for asking is that I am thinking about getting a server to put at my parents'...
Has anyone tried these cheap generic 2.5 GbE USB NICs?
They are available from very many sellers on e.g. Aliexpress for less than $17:

QNAP just launched their QSW-1105-5T switch, which has 5 ports at 2.5 Gbps.
Product page:
QSW-1105-5T - Features
My initial thoughts after just reading online:
This is the first “cheap” switch with only 2.5GbE ports. (€120, so of course not “lunch money” as 5-port 1GbE switches have become.)...
I can think of at least three reasons, all dealbreaking for the people it concerns:
1. 10 GbE does not support Power over Ethernet.
2. There are thousands of metres of CAT5E in schools, universities, corporate buildings etc. that needs something faster than 1 GbE to connect to WiFi access...
I got tired of trying to find a good overview of NBASE-T products, so I made a spreadsheet myself:
NBASE-T products
It is most likely missing some products, but you can help me adding more products either by commenting in the sheet, sending me an e-mail or replying to this post.
I paid $42.60 for shipping and then Norwegian 25% VAT on top of everything when it arrived (there is no toll on computers in Norway, but VAT is of course added), and a fee to the Norwegian Post for handling the import (approximately either €15 or €30, I can't remember), but I'm not sure how that...
I also bought this kit from Natex in May and they sent it to me in Norway. It was well packaged and everything in perfect order and has been working well ever since. I can definitely recommend them! There's a whole thread about those deals here on the forum and Pam seems to have been helpful...
To add to the difficulties, like many others here also report Turbo Boost automatically keeps my E5-2670 at 3 GHz even under full load on all cores, so I never see 2.7 GHz. Not sure about how the E5-2695 does, but for my use case I would surely take 12 cores over 8 if they drop in price further...
My guess is this will not happen, simply because there has not been a lot of large scale installations of that processor. The W suffix indicates that it's made for workstations, with higher frequency and TDP, which is not easy to handle in a tightly packed rack environment. The reason we're...
I see your point, but in my opinion the whole point going with these Sandy Bridge Xeons is performance/cost, not per watt, and I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy them and have them sitting idle most of the time. Lower power solutions may be both more efficient and cheaper then, of course...
If you don’t yet have a use case for your powerful server/workstation you can always consider helping out at the World Community Grid. It’s a distributed computing project by research groups from all over the world. Currently running projects are mostly about biomedicine and protein folding, but...
I spent some time looking for dual 2011 motherboards in Europe on eBay some time ago, but couldn't find any cheaper than about €300, so I finally ended up ordering from Natex.us (see list of deals and discount codes in other thread). Even with toll and VAT added upon import it works out much...
