Posted Yesterday, 11:32 PM   Greetings: Question 1: I have to deploy 19 L2 switches and 2 L3 switch. Need help in picking the right switch. I am going to use SNMP and Sflow with Solarwinds or Auvik.com network management software to manage these switches. So it comes down to the hardware performance of the switch. I have the three switch models from the manufacturers on trial - need to figure out how to test them. Is there a step by step document to conduct this test ? Question 2: Switch model 1 - showing switching capacity, forwarding rate and stacking bandwidth in duplex where as other switch manufacturers does not mention duplex.
