It would take 100x 100Mb/s fast Cisco ethernet ports for Uberguru to even reach one 10Gbe.dude just get a water cooling kit, no chance in having a 10gbe uplink without active cooling
That is because this will be used for home lab only.It would take 100x 100Mb/s fast Cisco ethernet ports for Uberguru to even reach one 10Gbe.
He's happy with old, slow and Cisco only.
My advice ends here.
I was thinking the less power used by fibre would allow a lower power profile. BASE-T causes a lot of heat.
what's with cisco? For such a low end switch , I doubt it would matter. I'm super happy with my net gear!
Cisco used to be elite but man look at their stock. Speaks volumes. Flopped on all consumer products big time. Flopping on their core competency - see their recent stock pricing.
cisco pro-sumer/smb parts are just that - junk.
Lawful Intercept Processing
After acquiring a court order or warrant to perform surveillance, the LEA delivers a surveillance request to the target's service provider. Service provider personnel use an administration function that runs on the mediation device to configure a lawful intercept to monitor the target's electronic traffic for a specific period of time (as defined in the court order).
After the intercept is configured, user intervention is no longer required. The administration function communicates with other network devices to set up and execute the lawful intercept. The following sequence of events occurs during a lawful intercept:
1. The administration function contacts the ID IAP for intercept-related information (IRI), such as the target's username and the IP address of the system, to determine which content IAP (Catalyst 6500 series switch) the target's traffic passes through.
2. After identifying the Catalyst 6500 series switch that handles the target's traffic, the administration function sends SNMPv3 get and set requests to the Catalyst 6500 series switch's Management Information Base (MIB) to set up and activate the lawful intercept. The CISCO-TAP2-MIB is the supported lawful intercept MIB to provide per-subscriber intercepts.
3. During the lawful intercept, the Catalyst 6500 series switch:
a. Examines incoming and outgoing traffic and intercepts any traffic that matches the specifications of the lawful intercept request.
b. Creates a copy of the intercepted traffic and forwards the original traffic to its destination so the target does not suspect anything.
c. Encapsulates the intercepted traffic in UDP packets and forwards the packets to the mediation device without the target's knowledge.
FTFY.If aren't going to buy from a company because they have a feature called "Lawful Intercept" then you better get out of the networking business - 'cuz there's nobody in the entire industry you can buy from the US.
Shrug, starting a pissing contest and smear other brands doesn't change the fact Cisco is so blatant about wide open backdoors in their products.Yup. Buy from Huawei or ZTE - 'cuz they are so much more honorable than Cisco.

Hardware sales won't be the only thing. Software will follow suit and people and companies will move away from closed source American software like Windows, Office and Mac if they have any idea of common sense. When a government can force a US company to backdoor their products under secret order you can't trust any of their products anymore.
If you're typing up a confidential 3rd quarter financial report in MS Word for your large publicly listed company that document could be compressed, encrypted and silently sent off to NSA in real-time with some background Windows process which appears to be doing an NTP lookup. Now they can pass that insider information tips along to a few people in the government to benefit on the stock exchange. Snowden leaks have shown that NSA is performing economic espionage e.g. Petrobras in Brazil.
Similar deal with a company's trade secrets and inventions. If they're not patented yet that information can be passed along to an American company or government department to create a patent first.
Similar deal again with defense technology. An outside country/organisation is working on missile defense technology and the blueprints are being silently sent back to NSA headquarters.
Unfortunately nothing closed source and from America can be trusted now. Even if it is from America and open source I would still wait for a security review from some trustworthy person or a company outside the US.
The exodus has begun.
