How about performance?? (switching fabric = backplane bandwidth ) and (Throughput in Millions of packets per second)

For me this would be really important. You can check the whole list of supported features and performance facts on the link below:

Consider the following as well

SPAN

802.1x

Rapid STP

Advanced QoS

Hello Jorge,

I would add robust support of multicast that requires a good architecture, support for IGMP snooping.

This and QoS can be seen as key parameters to evaluate the quality of a switch architecture not only the raw performance numbers with unicast traffic.

Hope to help
