    Default Cisco Switch

    Can someone tell me if the Cisco WS-C3560G-48TS-E can be used as unmanaged switch. I do not want to sit at CLI and set up a switch manually.

    Wanted to use this switch in the house and garage network and on some cameras.

    Thanks.

    should do? I had a 2950 (managed) which I just used as a normal switch.

    Hope you didn't pay too much for it. It should work for you, though. I use a HP Procurve 2124 that I picked up for the outrageous sum of $5.00.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    You can turn the fancy features like spanning tree off and stick all the ports in a single VLAN. The problem with using an enterprise level switch in a home environment is the noise and the power consumption.

    I have a pile of Cisco gear out in my garage, but I don’t use any of it on my home network.
