1. More Gigabit LAN Ports..5 is barely enough
2. Support Ethernet Link Aggregation on the LAN side
3. Fan control The fan is so damned noisey on the 2950.

Then I'm happy :)

Why? It's already Gigabit which is infinitely faster than you're ever going to get through a WAN connection. Just for two servers/PCs to talk to each other ?


*Assuming a low value of infinity :-)

Hi Admin, and thanks for your input.

My original points 1 and 2 should not be read in isolation.

Essentially, my wish list is asking for a larger LAN port capacity so that there are sufficient ports to realistically support 802.3ad. Then, devices such as a NAS, which has high traffic demand can utilise the facility.

Point taken about bandwith on the WAN, but this is for a LAN to LAN traffic flow, where the demand is not a 1 to 1 demand, but one 1 to many.

Yes, I could use a seperate switch, but I would prefer to keep as much on a single device that I can.

This is only a wish list - not a complaint :)
