Well, how does one figure out what exactly is a "hih performance
switch"? I've found this an exceedingly hard task. Like the OP posted
the Dell 6248 is rated to give more than a fully subscribed backbone
capacity. Nor I do not know any good third party test lab nor do I
know any switch load testing benchmarks that'd take a switch through
its paces.
So, how does one go about selecting a good switch? "The most expensive
the better" is somewhat a unsatisfying option!
