My knowledge is limited to what I learned during my training and rudimentarily acquired on the job. Professionally, I have little to do with spanning tree, trunking, routing, etc. Of course, I can handle all of that, but it's simply not my area of responsibility. Again, I came across the switch because it can do more or less everything "out of the box." I don't need an additional router for VLANs and it supports IGMPv3. I simply hope to accommodate VLANs, VLAN routing, PoE, and Magenta TV in one device with 24 ports or more. If anyone has an alternative, feel free to share. The Edge series from Ubiquiti seems to be an alternative. Has anyone ever held and used such a device?
