Need to find a a switch for SAN Storage

[bertieuk]

I need to source a 24/48 port switch that is capable of full private vlan support and run at gigabit on all ports. I am confused at the choice and how vague the data sheets are.

Key features:

24 port and 48 port copper
Vlan and private Vlans (promiscuous and community secondary vlans)
Jumbo frames
Flow control
ACL

Is it possible to get stateful firewall features in a layer 3/4 switch?

The switch is for a SAN iscsi storage project. Do Extreme name private vlans as Cisco do?....cus I can't find much.

Thanks

Si

What do you mean 'name private vlans'? Do you mean VLAN tag ID number? Yes, Extreme supports IEEE 802.1q. Do they use the same commands to accomplish this, no, but they follow the same steps.

I would recommend the Summit 450a-24t.

I concur, I have some of these running and they are nice.
