I have a Cisco 3640 router ver 12.2. I am looking for a Cisco switch, what would be a good match on a limited budget from ebay?

Hello
It all depends on what you whant to do.Will it go into production or for studying CCNA/CCNP.You need voice,QOS support?All of the above is relevant to the choice of a switch.

Minue,

It is a home lab not a production network. And also for studying CCNA/CCNP and vlans. Voice would be nice but not a requirement.

Thanks

Hello
The best switch for the CCNA would be the 2950!But the 2900XL-EN is cheaper,the only problem is that a few commands are different.As far as the CCNP goes it best to have a level 3 switch.The prices for level 3 switches are quite expensive now.So it would be best to buy one when you start your CCNP in the future, certainly then the prices will be lower.
