Ok,
I want to play around with doing some NIC teaming & VLANs at home. My needs for right now are not that great, I could probably get by with a 5 port switch but given that 8 port switches aren't normally that much more (would prefer a 16 port but they are stetching my budget to much right now). I don't have any preferred brand of switch, at home right now I have a D-Link 5 port, Trendnet 8 port & a Rosewill 5 port (all gigabit). I would prefer a rack mountable switch for the future when I finally get a house, but it doesn't have to be. Anyone have some suggestions that meat at least most of my criteria?
