best option, 2 netgear Prosafe GS724T-400EUS in trunking or 1 gs748teu,  do you have the same performance both options.   2 netgear prosafe 24 are best price.

2 Netgear ProSafe GS724T-400EUS - Switch de red (24 puertos Gigabit, 2 puertos SFP) por Netgear  or Netgear GS748TEU - Switch de red con 48 puertos Gigabit ProSafe por Netgear

Hi hosregla, 

Welcome to the community! 

I would go with the single GS748T, it's much easier to manage if you only have one unit. In terms of performance, this should be the same, using 2 switches with trunk ports benefits works better if you have multi-sessions on both switches. If your network activity uses single session, it will max out the first port's bandwidth before using the second one. I am hoping some other users here can give more input. 

If you have more questions, feel free to ask. 

Thanks,

Hi hosregla, 

I have to be clear on what you are trying to accomplish, do you just want the devices to be connected on a single network? If you have a diagram of your network plan, that will help us in giving you the correct suggestions. 

I'll look forward to your response. 

Thanks,

Hi hosregla, 

It is a medium sized network you have there, but I don't think creating multiple VLANs is neccessary. You have to evaluate your network and see if VLANs will help the performance of the applications that you are using. If you decide to use VLANs then, I would configure trunking, if not I will consider looking at LAG. 

I hope this information helps you. 

Thanks, 

[hosregla]

How do you configurate ?, I do not know that LAG LAG is in matters of switches.

70 % of computers accessing an application , which is installed in each position, and accessing a SQL SERVER STANDART 2008 .

[JohnRo]

Hi hosregla,

LAG (Link Aggregation) has some benefits to your network like increasing bandwidth, failover/failback, improved administration and lesser drain on the address pool. You will have to assess your network if these will be beneficial for you before implementing it. You can find configuration instructions on the manuals of the switches. For GS724T models click here (start at page 84), for gs748T click here (start at page 81).

If you have more questions, please feel free to ask.

Thanks,  

[hosregla]

Hi.

i would like configurate MAC FILTERED by each port.

Where can i configarte it?

thks.

[JohnRo]

Hello Hosregla, 

You can confugure MAC Filtering  on Security>Traffic Control then MAC Filter>MAC Filter Configuration. 

You may check the details on the software administration manual see page 200. (GS724T) 

For GS748T please click here, see page 195. 

Thanks, 

[hosregla]

Hello friend:

My portatil have that mac:

i have just put this configuration, in my switch, but I LOVE you get the opposite effect.

my portatil don´t run 😉

Thks.

.

[JohnRo]

Hello Hosregla, 

Yes, the MAC address entered will be the one filtered. What are you trying to filter by the way? Do you want the Portatil to be the only one with access? 

Thanks, 

[hosregla]

yes. a lot of thanks by your time.

I like that each switch port was exclusive to a single Mac.

[JohnRo]

Hello Hosregla, 

No problem! Glad you got it working as you wanted. 

Thanks, 

[hosregla]

I have not managed to set it as I wish .
Can you help me?

[JohnRo]

Hello Hosregla, 

What are you trying to accomplish? If you have a diagram, you can upload it here so that other members of the community can give thier suggestions. 

Looking forward to your response. 

Thanks, 

[hosregla]

ok. I will create a new post
