@Lalufu these are cheap unmanaged 2.5G switches, so no LLDP support. They are glorified PoE injectors essentially (which was the point with buying a bunch of these :))
Also, looking for information about this chip: https://bitlair.nl/fotos/view/20250622/P1000762.JPG (this is on the PoE controller of this switch)
I bought a bunch of these switches, but without the 802.3at support they are usless to me. If you want to grab some for cheap, feel free to reach out to me :)
If you are looking for cheap 2.5G + 10G unmanaged switches with PoE+ (802.3at), the ienRon HG0402XG-P (https://www.servethehome.com/ienron-hg0402xg-p-review-cheapest-2-5gbe-and-10g-poe-switch/2/) is not the one you want given the PoE controller only seems to be doing 802.3af. None of the Aruba AP's play nice with this switch, always detecting 802.3af. So far, it seems that the PoE controller doesn't not send out the correct pulses for the PSE to detect 802.3at.
Artist unknown, but some morning whimsy
Yesterday we’ve built the first section of the WHY2025 uplink from Nikhef (Amsterdam Science Park) towards Alkmaar… this is running at 400G using OpenZR+ on an alienwave. We will be building the other section towards the field in the coming weeks :)
Smokey says good morning :) #catsofmastodon
🚀 My new #DDoS book "DDoS: Understanding Real-Life Attacks and Mitigation Strategies" is now also available as an eBook! 🎉
Check it out here: https://ddos-book.com/
I’ve packed in everything I’ve learned from defending major German government sites against groups like Anonymous, Killnet, and NoName057(16).
It covers mitigations against #AI #crawlers and many other defenses for all network layers.
If you find it useful, I’d love it if you could boost and share to help more people defend themselves. ❤️
Thank you! 🙏
