Hello All,

I realy nedd your advice. I want to buy CRS317-1G-16S + RM for switching of iscsi and vlan trffic in a vmware farm. Just need to switch traffic as quickly as possible, as stable as it possible.

I consider as an alternative to the Cisco SG350XG-2F10-K9-EU.

I think to launch it with ROS, because SWOS scares...

The question is, what can be the pitfalls of the solution, and, do anyone have a real experience of operating CRS in highly loaded systems? Any advices and expirience are warmly welcomed!

correct me if I a, wrong, I understand that the all I need to create trunks:
---
/interface ethernet switch vlan
add ports=ether2,ether3,ether4,ether5,ether6 switch=switch1 vlan-id=200
add ports=ether2,ether3,ether4,ether5,ether7 switch=switch1 vlan-id=300
add ports=ether2,ether3,ether4,ether5,ether8 switch=switch1 vlan-id=400
---

and access ports like this:
---
/interface ethernet switch port
set ether2 vlan-mode=secure
set ether3 vlan-mode=secure
set ether4 vlan-mode=secure
set ether5 vlan-mode=secure
set ether6 vlan-mode=secure default-vlan-id=200
set ether7 vlan-mode=secure default-vlan-id=300
set ether8 vlan-mode=secure default-vlan-id=400
---

p.s. at least, I this case abouve, should not to create any bridge configuration to allow the traffic goes?
