I think you should only have to enable them if you don't reboot, I think I forgot a reboot instruction after the fpod crap. there's a whole paragraph on it in the licensing manual included in the firmware zip
nopeIs there a way to see the total running hours of these switches in their lifetime, not just the uptime?
I mean, my 6450-24P is fine noise-wise, but I don't recall the 6610 when I had it being THAT much louder. If you're not using PoE it may well be even quieter, but you may want to seriously consider a fanless switch from somewhere.So unfortunately I'm going to have to sell both my ICX6610-24P switches they work great but my pregnant wife cant yell at me from upstairs for me to hear her in my office. they are fully updated but will not have any licenses on them (you can reach out to
fohdeesha for that will sell with 2 fans and 2 power supplies (switch is POE but power supplies are not but they are brand new a version C witch is the most quiet) for $250 and with 1 power supply for 200. Local is NY/NJ/CT or shipping at buyers expense. will also post on ebay next week and in the for sale area.
if im only running 3-4 10GB lines and the rest being 1gb, would the 6450 work for me?
Less the true loudness of the switches, more the layout of my house. The switches sit in between my desk and the door in my office, so any sound coming inside my office has to pass through them to get to me.I mean, my 6450-24P is fine noise-wise, but I don't recall the 6610 when I had it being THAT much louder.

That said, yeah, 3-4 10G and the rest gigabit will be fine, as long as you can activate the second pair of 10G ports. I suspect you know how to do that though.
I'd be interested in one of them, possibly. Need to figure out how much I can afford. Sadly I'm not local (Maine) so that won't work out and I'd need to figure shipping.
No, I've not experienced throughput issues at all with them and I really wouldn't expect to - switches haven't really had blocking issues in a long time. I've got a NAS and a couple of ESXi hosts connected on 10g, with the NAS feeding both hosts for a datastore as well as general and media file sharing and had no issues.My question on the 6450 was more bandwidth wise. I run a SAN and multiple containers with Plex, home assistant, openVPN, etc. If I'm doing 1-2 lager 25-300gb copies on 10gbt andmeone is watching a netflix movie on 4k HDR will they stutter? Also, am I losing any layer options going to the lower switch.
Thanks
