Hello,
I currently have a small mini appliance running PFsense that then serves a couple switches for each network (server and home lan)
I just bought a new server and I am planning out building a small rack.
Is there a rack mounted switch that I should install that would substitute the PFsense appliance and its downstream switches?
The wants would be:
- primary set of ports would be 10gb or 2.5gb with 10g SFP+
- 10 ports minimum desired but somewhat flexible
- somewhat industry standard so I’m not learning something I couldn’t potentially use at work
- Could be something new or used, but price range is about 400 bucks.
- ideally acts as router and downstream switches in the current setup
Depends on what functions your pfSense box is currently serving.
