I'm looking for ssomething managed, as well as SNMP aware so that I can tie it into Zabbix for monitoring ... something 8 or 12 port preferred. Cisco, of course, is always a big name ... but also expensive ... oen recommendation is the xl 1900, but I can't find any specs on her at cisco's site, so discontinued product? What about Netgear, which I have easy access to? Or Alcatel? models to stay away from? Thanks ... ---- Marc G.
