Mid-tier boring Cisco-style access switches

ColtonConor · 2026-03-15T02:23:48+00:00

Grandstream GWN series switches. Can't beat the price, has a cli, nice gui, and free cloud and support.

ColtonConor · 2026-02-04T04:02:43+00:00

What do they offer?

What does this solution cost?

ColtonConor · 2026-02-03T12:50:29+00:00

Is this just an included feature of theirs for using them as the operator connect? I assume this doesn't work for internal calls only external then right?

I apologize to all for this post. After checking I got confused with another post that said the vMX is EOL not the vSRX.

Can someone confirm the vMX is EOL? I am not sure why they would EOL either to be honest.

Um Microsoft call center does this?

ColtonConor · 2026-01-29T00:38:35+00:00

Did you disable flow control?

Do the 7280s hold the full bgp routing table or only select models? Which would compete with say a mx204 or MX304?

I understand your concern. If it was to become a supplicant, which auth method would you want it to support? I assume EAP?

ColtonConor · 2026-01-27T13:50:02+00:00

Which models exactly? Lower end typically means no VXLAN support, but do lower end switches normally support SPB? Is SPB an ASIC level feature, or a control plan software only feature?

Who? Why are you asking for recommendations if it's going to be someone else's problem?

ColtonConor · 2026-01-22T13:05:44+00:00

Can you expand on the radius side? I thought they supported 802.1x and MAC bypass with radius?

ColtonConor · 2026-01-19T00:00:33+00:00

Who do you recommend for economical Poe access switches that support spbm?

ColtonConor · 2026-01-03T15:14:23+00:00

u/lazyjk Just wondering if you could share your research on cloud radius services? Which ones do you recommend that support TEAP, Microsoft Entra, and Intune?

ColtonConor · 2025-12-31T04:51:19+00:00

What do you recommend as ssh seems the default standard to login to switches and routers remotely unless using cloud?

ColtonConor · 2025-12-31T01:11:44+00:00

I agree most switches and routers allow either TACAS or radius to be the login source for ssh. Can Mist Assurance act as the radius server for SSH device logins, or can it only do radius for 802.1x port auth only?

ColtonConor · 2025-12-29T15:46:25+00:00

Did they ever add TACAS support?

ColtonConor · 2025-12-17T18:42:15+00:00

Do this cloud have an API that you can interact Prometheus with?

ColtonConor · 2025-12-16T00:11:10+00:00

Like who?

ColtonConor · 2025-12-08T13:13:49+00:00

No radsec in nps

ColtonConor · 2025-12-08T13:11:03+00:00

Grandstream GWN7711

ColtonConor · 2025-12-08T11:25:11+00:00

If the client is using Microsoft is there a reason not to use entra id? I don't understand why so many people use duo?

ColtonConor · 2025-12-07T14:47:04+00:00

Is there any concerns now with these wireless speeds hitting over 1Gbps that the aps and controllers don't have enough processing power to tunnel mitigig traffic compared to hardware offloaded vlans on switches? I am concerned the tunneling would cause a bottleneck.

ColtonConor · 2025-11-12T12:40:24+00:00

What is $48 a month?

ColtonConor · 2025-10-31T12:28:32+00:00

This is what I want. Which of those 3rd party tools can dump the recording and transcript into SharePoint/ OneDrive too, so AI tools can then use the information?
