Mine is for sale from the US, and would ship internationally, but I have no idea if the shipping to Europe would still be in your "awesome deal" price range.I am searching for one too, but Here in Europe i Cant find those awesome deals.
If anyone has one for sale or a good deal.. would Be awesome!
Let me know how loud it is. It is supposed to be36-38dba vs the 50 something dba this switch is. Just not sure it is enough to warrant the difference in cost. It's got half the 10Gb ports, and costs alot more ($600) than what I paid for the used quanta ($170). I am lucky enough to have a utility room with a rack where I keep all my gear.
I buy several switches from them, also my LB6M.Hello.
I bought 4 switches - 2x LB6M and 2x LB8 from Ebay seller Unix Plus from US...
Now i waith for them to arrive here in Bulgaria
If you bought from same seller you can tell me what to expect... I hope they will be in good condition all working...
I install TFTPD32 : an opensource IPv6 ready TFTP server/service for windows : TFTP server on my pc and start it, then i ssh to the switch and follow the comandsredwing31, perfect! Thank you very much!
Quanta LB6M Firmeware upgrade process (image on TFTP server, switch has static IP address with working configuration):
show bootvar {to confirm the firmware you have)
I copied my most recent working version from active to backup
copy active backup
Transfer to image from TFTP server to backup
copy tftp://[IP address of TFTP server]/[file name]
confirm images are where they should be:
show bootvar
Boot system up with new firmware:
boot system backup
restart switch:
reload
Switch will go off line for roughly 100 seconds. After boot, confirm you booted the correct image:
show bootvar ("show run" also shows the firmware at the top of the confiration)
#show running-config

Why you don't connect router trough 10 Gbit also ? I wait my switch LB8 to artrive and after that everything will be connected at 10Gb to it including router...Howdy,
Just received one of these switches as well. I am hoping its super simple to run it as a pure switch I am looking to connect my freenas and esxi server to it and maybe a workstation.
Sadly since I can not seam to find any reference to connecting to a router with a sfp port I will use port 25 as the link to the router via standard 1gbe
Any advice
Thanks
I considered a lb6m for my homelab, but 73 db is too loud. Are there soud proofed enslosures just for switches or routers?I do a dba test here with my Quanta LB6M and it was 55dba 1 meter away.
On the case it was 65dba and close to the back 73dba.
