Cisco small Switches

[waheedullah Bahaduri]

Hello,

I need to purchase new small Cisco Switches with 16 ports

Features I require inside these switches are:

1- 802.1x

2- mac-based port-security

Can anyone please recommend me which cisco switch series I should order ?

Thanks

The smallest are 24 port, and you could consider the 2960-X series.  Note you need a RADIUS server to use 802.1x.

thanks Philip

May I know, do these 2960-X series switches support for TrustSec / SGT ?

[Philip D'Ath]

Yes.

Hello,

in addition to Philip's post, and depending on your budget, you also might want to consider something like the Meraki MS120-24, which is about one third of the price of the 2960-X...
