You probably won't find much help here. Those switches are ancient.
You'd be better off buying two of those very cheap SX6036 and unlocking them with the available licenses...
They are ancient but they fill my need. I have seen plenty of activity in the past. I am not looking for anything fancy but I am looking to duplicate my current setup with the addition of etherenet as server 2022 has issues with smb and multiple connections.
currently, I have 2 IS5030 and each server has a dual port cart for redundancy (I know I am gaining no speed with dual port cards) they also have a 1gb connection to the internet ( no need for faster as I only have 1gb connection)
in server 2019 if I set mappings with IP it will go over the appropriate connection, in 2022 it now only goes over the 1 GB connection. it baffling and after months of working with Fourms and Microsoft engineers(we are platinum partners) there has been no progress. so I am looking to add ethernet bridging to our setup to eliminate the 1 GB connection altogether.
frankly, all I need is the user manual. there are tons of copies of the installation manual around but no user manual so we don't have much to go on. there is a group of network engineers playing with these switches right now but we are just poking around as we have no guidance and are used to Mellanox switches with no bridge.
