Hey guys,
I'd like to upgrade our fast ethernet infrastructure to a gigabit based on and also implement better security settings to seperate our office, from guest and high security network. We are very tight on money so for the entire network upgrade I have ~250 € max!
Our current setup is like this:
Basement Rack:
* NAS
* Debian Server with Samba 4 AD DC, Apache, Squid
* Zyxel Zywall USG 50 -> Broadband connection, Splitting networks into Public and Office (that has VPN connection to another location)
* Netgear 24 Port 100 Mbit Switch (don't know which one just now but its unmanged)
Office 1:
4 PCs, currently all on the same network (only one cable available), 2 should be on "high security network" with no access to NAS or LAN only VPN, 2 should be on office network
Office 2:
2 PCs, should be on "office" network
Office 3:
2 Laptops + Access point, should be on "office" network
Main Hall:
2 public PCs + Access point that are connected via Powerline to the "Public" port of the Zywel, no cable available, Fast Ethernet is fine here
What I'd like to do is buy a 16 or 24 Port Smart Managed Gigbit switch for our rack, 2 standard 4 port gigabit switches for Office 2 and 3 and a 8 (?) port smart managed switch for office 1.
I'm currently thinking about getting the Netgear GS716T-200EUS (24 port smart managed) for the basement (~130 €), 2 NETGEAR GS105GE (4 port Gigabit unmanaged) for the offices 2 and 3 (~41 € total), but I'm not really sure what to get for the office 1.
I could get the Netgear GS108T-200 that seams to have all the required features I need, but is a bit expensive 71€.
Then I also saw the Netgear ProSafe Plus GS108E for only 31€ that, from what I can see should be as capable as the GS108-T??
What would you suggest, is a setup like this even possible with VLANs?
Thanks a lot!
