I am looking for a switch much like this one from FS for colo rack, except from a better brand. I’m having a hard time finding the right model/tiers across the various brands so I’m hoping someone here can help point me in the right direction.
The main specific features I need are:
- VRRP
- MLAG
- at least 24x 10 gig ports (prefer a mix of 10GE and SFP+, but all of one or the other is fine)
I would also love to have the hot swap power supplies and fans but those are not absolute deal breakers.
We aren’t picky about brand - I have just heard mixed reviews about fs so I’m trying to find something with a bit more history and broader support than them.
Budget is of course a factor. I feel like we don’t need all of the other robust features/performance of an $11k catalyst 9300 — I’d love to see if I could bring this in under $3k per switch. But if the answer is that this realistically can’t be done on that budget (without going to something like the fs I linked to) then I’m still interested in hearing what would be the lowest priced option that could get me into those features.
