I am trying to find the easiest way to configure a 100GE unmanaged switch. I don't need all of the fancy sdn functions of most of the onie switches but can't seem to find a simple 100GE switch. I have seen some pretty cheap edge-core switches on ebay which have been suggested in some of the sth threads: EDGE-CORE 7512-54X-O-AC-F DATA CENTER SWITCH. I just wasn't sure which OS would be able to install and if it could be configured to be a simple non-blocking 100GE switch. The listing also mentions the following:
Manufacturer: EDGE-CORE
Model Number: 7512-54X
Part Number: {PART NUMBER}
Firmware Version: 3.11.10
OS Installed (if applicable): FEDORA
License (if applicable): STANDARD.
I am also not sure if there is anyway to configure the linux os that is installed and add any packages that would allow this hw to act as a simple switch. Thanks for any tips or suggestions as to where I could find something for my use case.
