Let's GO! Love the content Jeff, keep it coming. I already went through the 50 page or so forum thread of your house build and it was amazing! Hopefully one day we'll have a video about it ;)
We run 40G at work, and have a Dell S6100-ON - It's a chunky, loud, power-hungry switch. But has replaceable modules that can go from 16x40Gbe up to 8x100Gbe - Which is nice!
@@chrisnelson414 When I was a kid, my school had Token Ring. I never dealt with that other than plugging those crazy proprietary plugs in. Eventually the first network I implemented myself was 10-Base 2 Coax with the T connectors and terminators on the ends. We were playing Doom over LAN at a local college for a LAN Party. So yeah, collisions were by design in those days. Amazing how far we've come. :)
That SFP module vendor lock-in is indeed annoying. I recently upgraded the core link from my server to my Cisco switch to 10G but only had HP SFP modules. Took me a while to figure out the IOS command to allow non-cisco SFP modules to work. Unfortunately the switches I am using (Catalyst 3850s) only have two 10G SFP ports in their network modules, so they are pretty limiting in that way. I have been looking out for cheap 4x10G network modules for the 3850 but they don't seem very common.
Do you have 40G around your entire house, or just in your lab? Building a new server room as I’ve run out of space, curious what you would recommend for future-proofing.

Saving this video for after I finally manage to upgrade from 1 gig to 10.

Where is that?
My wallet watching this video: don't you dare 🗿
Love your channel Jeff. Such great stuff!
Nice hairstyles

Yea, that is nice to have the upgrade path! The Arista 40gs are also super power hungry and loud. Sounds like an aircraft carrier.
Audio volume is a bit low on this vid, good thing I have local boost to work around it.
Ah yea, I forgot to equalize it! will fix.
Am I getting old? I still remember going from 10M to 100M and it being a game-changer. 😭
Try dealing with Token Ring and vampire taps... 🥴

Hell yeah
Very knowledgeable , great content i am planning to upgrade my entire network and encrypt all my. Connections , do you have any recommendations
Excellent video, Jeff. What is the model # of the Arista switch?
That is a 7050QX-32, although there are a couple of those series that are pretty inexpensive.

I was planning on a direct 10gb connection from my pve to the nas box and this made me realize I can simply go 40gb.
Bro is so rich he thinks everyone else is rich too.
Still rockin' the Convids-19 hair!
Yea, I should really get a haircut!

🙄I'd love to have even 2.5 gig...
stop calling that homelab when you have more power than more of small buiseness out there.....
