      Look at the non-Unifi switches, too. They are cheaper and more powerful.

        You mean the EdgeSwitches and EdgeMax, correct?

            Correct.

              Do i have to buy subscription service or install a vm to manage these?

              Don't purchase Unifi switches. Go with the EdgeSwitch.

                What controller is used for the EdgeSwitch line? Obviously not the Unifi Controller as it's a different line of equipment.

                  Nothing yet. I believe that the UNMS will eventually (if it doesn't already) support the Edge line.

                    So how are people managing the Edge line of equipment currently?

                      Either by command line or via the built in web gui.

                        That is what I thought (web gui), but wanted to make sure. I didn't think of the CLI, but of course it's there.

                          And of course would probably be comparable to how they are currently managing their Cisco equipment.

                            No controller needed, it's not a Unifi. The need for a controller is the Unifi / Meraki concept.

                              They are standard managed switches. So SNMP as well.

                                My friend uses the Unifi switches. He has them to power the Unifi APs and the Unifi Cameras.

                                  Generally the unifi switches are for tiny deployments. How is he liking them?

                                    So the
                                    ES-48-LITE
                                    would be great i think
                                    No need for PoE, though i might order one of them with it.
                                    Now if i could find someone with them in stock so i can get them here by Friday.

                                      Amazon usually has these.

                                            4 of the ES 48 LITE here by tomorrow.
                                            Cant wait to get rid of that junk currently in the server room.
