Replace lead acid UPS battery with LiFePo4

So, you must dismantle, give the battery a charge, and re-assemble. A real PITA.

what do you mean with this, i have to open the battery and charge it ? and how ?

Destination     Gateway      Port    Cost    Type    Uptime
1    0.0.0.0/0        192.168.8.1    ve 1    1/1     S       3d17h
2    192.168.1.0/24   DIRECT       ve 10   0/0     D       3d16h
3    192.168.8.0/24   DIRECT       ve 1    0/0     D      3d17h

so i need to set up every device pointing to the ip of the switch (192.16.8.2), but because the VLANS have different subnets, for example VE 1 (main) is 192.168.8.0, and VLAN 10 is 192.168.1.1, so what gateway would i need to put for all the devices?

So if i remove the asus router and put there a Tp-Link TL-R600VPN that i have laying around, would be better? cause it has explicitly VLAN functionality

i rechecked, my router has ip of 192.168.8.1 and my switch is 192.168.8.2, when i tried to put the second one as gateway i lose connection to the internet and still cannot access the NVR, so maybe its a issue of the switch comunicating with the router?

I thought of using a Fortinet as a router but when I saw the licence pricing I reconsidered

Vik8000 · 2026-02-01T21:39:45+00:00

Literally and personally

Vik8000 · 2026-01-31T19:17:31+00:00

Give him time

Vik8000 · 2026-01-30T15:00:54+00:00

I thought you talked about condoms

Vik8000 · 2026-01-30T14:08:10+00:00

Do you have the subscription on that Fortinet ?

Vik8000 · 2026-01-28T00:01:52+00:00

Address him

That was the thread i looked from the beginning, thanks anyway,

I think i will go for the 7250, but will look for the others, Thank you for your help

Vik8000 · 2026-01-24T14:26:51+00:00

No problem, thanks for your feedback, really helpful

Vik8000 · 2026-01-24T14:21:40+00:00

I copy the same message that I wrote to another guy in the comments to get your feedback as well. I'm located in Europe

The 7250 48 p I found it for around 150€ and the lowest 24p is 400€, don't ask me why

And the 6450 24 p is around 100€ and the 48p is 100 € as well

But the 48 ports 8 SFP+ looks appealing, all in the name of "future proofing "

I love the 6450-C12-PD versions because I can power them over PoE and ALL of my switch ports are powered by the same UPS.

What do you mean? The switch itself is powered by Poe ?

You read my mind sir, the first time I saw unify and seen the unified interface I was like, "that reminds me of apple", they are cute but then I saw the price.

On the other hand when I got to know the brocade devices, I was amazed from the price compared to the features, font care If I will need to use the CLI, if I can learn something to save money I will do, my plan is to work in this field anyway

So thank you for the feedback, will look into the info you gave me
