FYI a better way to test you connection speed is by using Iperf3 that will actually test the connection of your nics without the bottleneck of you ssd(s)

Don't get wrapped up in the parameters for tweaking iperf. -s and -c should suffice. Also switchport channel grouping to support LACP to support up to 8Gbps (might be more, but if I recall there's a physical port limit for grouping) to your C2960. You need LACP for mixed vendor compatibility.

His speed is probably limited by the cpu in the server or host computer (he does need to log into this unit / factory reset and change password and firmware update it, they can be comprised if just ignored with default password) also apart from his POE cams does he even need 1gb switch any more just run everything into the 10gb network

@Joseph Fornecker hi Joseph, running multiple instances on different ports works. Issue with iperf is that it's single threaded therefore only operating on one CPU per process, and will max out in the gigs. To test >10G, I had to fire up 8 instances of iperf -s -p ####, and had ~8 work laptops to test... Then we went optical 10G because of the headroom of LACP and wasted GigE ports. LACP in active active mode works great, can get like 97%+ combined interface throughput without issue. Some vendors have issues with their implementation of active, bit Linux servers to Cisco works great, and so does some mixed vendor to Cisco. Some brands (cough ubiqui-garbage cough) fails to deliver 50% of one interface throughput when multiple interfaces are set up in LACP. Might be fine for offices for redundancy, but not for real-world or corporate networks.

Generally speaking you can go into the smartswitch software and LAGG ports or bond them together, but both sides of the equation have to support LAGG.
you should look into Direct Attach Copper cables. They're like fiber, but copper and made for short distances, like going inbetween your two switches. They use the same SFP/SFP+ ports that fiber optics use, and can deliver the same speeds, espically for the short distance in your setup.

Yes, he should absolutely look into shit that still doesn't solve his use case.
You could add a Trunk / Link Aggregration (LAG) / LACP between the switches. Maybe link 4 single gig ports over, if ports are available. Make sure both switches support same kind of aggregation.
use lperf for the test, also you need to activate jumbo frames and up the send/receive buffers to their max in the nics and the switch. getting full 10G in a mixed enviroment (linux, win etc) needs abit of configuration. the switch will get louder if you have a lot of active 10G connections, now with only 2-3, the SoCs are not being pushed enough to get warm. i don't believe the cd is viruses, it just has the user manuals. once you get it all working properly, it's a nice upgrade overall.

Anything you are plugging into your new 10g switch you NEED to replace any of your CAT5 cables with CAT6a or better cables to sustain 10g speeds without speed degradation or other odd issues.
The best thing about this switches is that they are power efficient (in comparison to other brands). I got 1Gig version and it works perfect in rack which is in my office. All best in New Year!
Connect the two switches with 4 ethernet connections in a link aggregation group. It will really improve performance.
Minimum length Ethernet cable is 1 meter. You can not connect two devices with a cable shorter than that. It causes issues.
Better idea than fiber for SFP+, just use DAC cables. Super cheap on amazon for some decent ones thatll run on cisco and other hardware easily.
I like your Christmas tree lol.
I know this is an old video, but I just scored an Aruba S2500 Layer 3 managed switch. It has 4 10BGE SFP+ ports and 48 1GBE POE ports. My home lab is about to get a blue iris server and serious speed upgrade.
You could set a LAGG link (link aggregation) between the two switches to add more bandwidth, of course, this requires that both switches are managed ("smart"). Also as others have pointed out, please take a look at iPerf3. it is a network speed tester
Jason.... Don't be afraid of SFP+ and Fiber. I use OM3 between my office MikroTik switch, connected to a TP-Link with SFP. There are 4 OM3 lines from my office to my basement, where I have a 24 port TP-Link...with SFP and my 2 servers in a rack. I'm not 100% 10 gig yet, but my connection is 10 gig from my PC to my servers, through the MikroTik. Fiber is easy, relatively cheap, and as long as you don't bend it smaller than 17mm, you're good to go! I'm getting 7-8 gig transfer rates into my raid 0 Plex server. But hey, wire as you wish! Happy Holidays!
I'm in awe that you have Pfsense in that rack and didn't configure that switch. You would benefit from having dual 10GBE connections from your UnRAID to the Negear 10GBe switch. You should be able to setup bonding/lacp on UnRAID (I think space invader one did something on this?). Then, you could also set up bonding/LACP between multiple 1 GBe uplinks to the 10 GBe switch.

Look into doing a LACP port channel between switches. You can bond up to 8 active connections and effectively up your bandwidth back to your Cisco switch. Now, it doesn't actually work like that though. If you pull a speed test across those connections you're still only going to see 1gig as a single thread of traffic will still only run over one connection. Where this starts to benefit you is when there are multiple devices sending and receiving at the same time each will use a different connection giving them overall more bandwidth. Also look into enabling jumbo frames on your Netgear switch and your 10gig devices. This will most likely increase your speeds.

Nice definitely jealous. Right now just have my PC connected to my home server with a DAC cable. The future is copper though, even Cat 5e in the wall should push much faster speeds than 1gbs if thats what you already have in the walls.
Depending on the distance you need to cover, a Cisco n5k and some twinax DAC cables are about the most cost effective method around these days for going 10Gb capable. Plus you can hook up a fex with fiber optic in the opposite corner of your house if you're a mad lad and want all the network connectivity. That does get more expensive, though, because fiber. Can highly recommend picking up an inexpensive N5K and some used twinax off eBay. The cables come in up to 10M lengths before you have to transition back to fiber with optical SFP. If you're into converged networking, you could even pick up a UP series N5K which has 8Gb FC SAN switching functionality.
Awesome setup 👍🏼👍🏼😁😁😁😁👍🏼👍🏼, I'm wondering if you're running a half duplex, or a full duplex configuration. Full duplex unquestionably renders 10 Gig transfers, but half duplex will split up the transfer into 2, 5 Gig transfers while only running one of the 5 Gig transfers across only one of either, up or down almost simultaneous. 80% of 10 Gigs is 8 Gigs. So depending on your ISP's overall connection speed you're seeing about that much on a half duplex transfer, maybe 🤔. If you wanted to ✔️ your switching unit order, configurations and transfer cabling, making sure you're using at least Cat 6 or better rated throughout the whole setup, you'll probably see about 9.3-10 Gigabits Full duplex, and about 4.175-5. Gigabits per Half duplex split signal transfers...
Fibers not complicated. Like everything else there’s an application for every cable. You should try the 10 gig fiber Loki just as a test if nothing else.
you might wanna look into the new ubiquiti unifi gear to consolidate everything under one control panel and if you do, get the new unifi dream machine pro (router, IPS/IDS, network camera/NVR control, network controller, 8 gigabit switch and 10g sfp+ all built in), add the UniFi Switch 6 XG PoE for 4x10g RJ45 and connect it to the router via SFP+, then connect the second SFP+ to a USW-Pro-24-POE Gen2 so you have a 10g connection between the router and the switches. Connect some POE cameras (UVC-G3-FLEX or UVC-G3-BULLET), UAP-AC-LITE/UAP-AC-PRO for your CCTV and wireless access points. Connect your 10g server and even with 10 gigabit connections to that, you still wont be bottlenecked by the router. It's what I eventually plan to deploy at my dad's car repair shop so he has full remote surveillance, a big storage for all of his archived receipts/work orders/etc, plex (so he can stop paying for cable tv), AND I can manage the network via site-to-site vpn so I can troubleshoot any issues without the need to drive over.

Jason - SFP is your friend! I'm running a MikroTik CRS309 8 port 10G switch - very cheap and the switch fabric can handle up to 162Gb - £200.
It's not a smart switch, it's a managed switch :) Grats on the upgrade, I'd like to have 10gig too, but I'll just trunk ports if I actually need anymore than 1gig.
Given that I have sever space and resource constrains I elected to go wit the CRS-305 4 port 10G switch from Microtik and connect my NAS units using DAC cable with an uplink to the rest of my network,. The switch was $99 the DAC cables were 2- x 4 and now My NAS units can mirror copy to themselves at 10Gb and my limited power is safe and my switch takes up a space the size of a pack of cigarettes.
Yes you can aggregate copper ports together to create a faster link between switches BUT this is switch specific technology and not all switches can do this, your new switch may or may not do this.
nice switch! i'd look at the vlan stuff to seperate out each type of network, eg on my gig 8 port netgear sw i have port 1 as input/output, ports 2/3 for data (with access to port 1); ports 4/5 for gaming/consoles etc (with access to port 1); ports 6/7/8 for servers (access to port 1) ports 4/5 have no access to 6/7/8 this works for me and my pre this switch network was insainely slow, with this i have near full gigabit speed network connections even with consoles and macs/pcs on simultaniously! so do it right and your cookin! have a great xmas/new year! be safe! be very full of xmas food and drink... enjoy! 🥂🍾🎄👍🏻

Just remember to take distance into consideration. Most 10Gb-baseT switches can do 10Gb over 30M of Cat6a. 10Gb DAC cables only come in a max length of 10M. You can, however, change over to running an armored fiber optic cable with an LR SFP if you happen to need to connect to something, like, 500M away.
i dont have a lot of experience with netgear switches but i am pretty sure at least on the cisco side you could mabye force 2 ports to use the same ip address so when it wants to communicate it uses both ports at the same time so you basically virtually combine the 2 ports

I just completed a similar project of mine, but with opposite goals - to get rid of RJ45. Mainly because of lightning destroying a set of devices previously. Fibers are not so problematic and they have more potential than copper. Initially I went for the Cisco SG300/SG500 mixed 1/10G optics, but soon pushed for HPE 10/40G 5900/5920/5930 series. As single more fiber can span more than 100 meters then all that goodness is housed in separate building. Basically over course of one year I swapped the equipment from set of multiple "home" switches into a consolidated datacenter modular TOR switch, what is supposed to be able to work even with the 100G, but that 100G price is prohibitive for just having it. What comes to network utilization then 10G should be a normal way to go, because random SSD etc will push out multi Gbps already. I'll put servers together with 40G, but over 10G at home is currently likely just a novelty.
What platform it is you managed the server?

If you are trying to use multiple links to connect the switches, create a portchannel and use LACP for load balancing. I would imagine the netgear supports LACP.
I would suggest you use a DAC/TWINAX cable to connect the two switches via their SFP+/SFP ports. The cables are cheap, pre-made and have the proper sfp connectors pre-attached.. This will free some copper ports. You should also look into using iperf3 as how you test your network throughput. It can saturate a 10Gb link.
Merry Christmas bit byters 🎄🎅
That switch is going to be pretty quiet unless you are able to really push it. In his application? Likely it'll be practically idle all the time. There isn't the constant barrage of data like a fully staffed editing studio. I have a smart managed prosafe PoE switch which after about 6 months, it started complaining about the fan (fan LED would stay lit). Since the core function of the unit wasn't the issue, I didn't want to play the warranty game. Something interesting about the fans...at least on mine...the switch ramps down the voltage a lot. Enough that a Noctua 12V fan barely spins. I ended up just putting an old fan I swapped from a surplus enterprise switch. It is louder but it moves a crap ton of air now.
You are looking for link aggregation (Cisco calls it Etherchannel/Portchannel) and you want to do load balance with it. Quite easy to configure it on the Cisco side, I have no clue about Netgear
I know it's kind of late now but don't be scared of fiber. I pulled a Jason while running it and crushed the fiber using a very unstable step stool and it still gets at least half-speed using om2 (yes I screwed up and bought the wrong stuff). Thankfully I didn't get hurt.
Even if you never buy this switch. You should always open boxes with a spatula!
You can flip the netgear rack mount ears around to align with your existing switch. If that is something you wanted.
Looks like what he needs more than a Switch is a pocketknife rather than using a spatula to open boxes

The way he open the box I thought this was a SpongeBob video for a second
Nice switch creating a separate Network backbone using 10GB switch! Works great for transferring files to a server like plex server without the traffic from the internet slowing your transfer speed.
You should use iPerf3 to check the speed between your server and desktop. It runs in memory so even with DDR3 you should be able to test up to around 10gbps. If you aren't getting near that then you may need to make sure jumbo frames is enabled on the Netgear switch and check your devices have it enabled and configured. You could also create a LAG / Port-Channel with multiple interfaces between your Cisco & Netgear switch to increase total bandwidth between them. Say 4 x Ports = 4 x 1Gbps paths. It doesn't mean you can do 4Gbps on a single TCP transfer, but you get more communication over more paths for multi host traffic. Its typically recommended to use the SFP ports between switches for the uplink as it reduces latency compared to the copper cables. Generally on these type of switches the last 4 ports will be shared with the SFP ports so you'd generally either use the SFP's or the last 4 ports (Port 20 - 24) for uplinks.
on the cisco side paste this config it will lag ports 1- 8.hope this helps. config t int po1 swi mode trunk no shut int ran gig 1/1 -8 swi mode trunk channel group 1 mode act no shut do wr end
I like the vid, thanks, educational, I'm just wondering where did you buy that switch, heck of a deal of you ask me, been looking on ebay, and could never find such.
BTW.. Cudo's on the cable hangers in the back.. Very creative.
I heard about your channel from a 23 yr old I.T. woman who had great things to say about your channel.
I used to be concerned about fiber and using it until I was exposed to it in the wild. The only real difference is making sure you're using the correct SFP+ transceiver for the type of fiber and switch you're connecting to. A simpler option as others have mentioned is using DAC cables which make a lot more sense money wise for shorter cable runs than fiber.
If you wanna get 10GbE Uplink to the PoE Cisco switch, get a Cisco 3750X-48P and a C3KX-SM-10G service module

If your room where your main computer is not far away its better to just run dedicated cables for each item than having to buy another switch
Also patch cables less than 3' length do not have enough twists to prevent crosstalk!

Ebay has Cisco WS-C4948 10 GB, 48 ports, 2 x X2-10GB-SR Modules switches... (used) for under $80.00 dollars. Granted they are used, but what is the lifespan of a switch ? 15, 20 years... Oh...and free shipping.
Iperf Iperf Iperf!!
Change the mtu settings on both the server and the main computer, I would suggest 9000. Also, enable jumbo package on the switch. Iperf3 works great for network speed without overhead
The speed test you're running in Docker isn't capable of 10g speeds. Use iperf3 as others have said. Yes you can LAG multiple, probably 4, ports together. You will still be limited to 1g of throughput per device, but you can have multiple devices pushing 1g at the same time.
Sidenote, you can use the 10gb connection on your workstation to get internet now, I would set that up, that way you don't need to setup different networks

you need to lag around 2to4 cables between the 2 switches to all multiple 1gb clients to access your server without a bottleneck
Use iperf to test as it avoids disk limitations which it seems like you’re hitting seeing as its topping out at around 400MB/s. on top of that if both switches are smart layer 3 switches they should be capable of lacp trunks which will aggregate your link speed between the two switches.

haha dude that Christmas tree made me follow you!
Sir for small business which is best to use to give service good on running ONU Gpon or others please suggest.
LOL at the Christmas tree
Nice Xmas 🌲!
At 8:27 what is the green bar on your unRAID tool bar? Great video!
So this system just for transfering a file or is this for a dumb terminals around your home?
I don't recall Jason which Cisco Switch do you have?
Love the network video's. Very much like me when I get new gear chuck it on the network and see how it goes.
That was a very cheap price. Hope it serves you well. "Happy New Year"
Not sure what datacenter you're running at home but I would think it's an overkill :)
"Fiber cables make me nervous" LOL. Make sure you're using CAT6A cables for your 10G to ensure the cabling isn't slowing you down. Also, if you're running an unraid, enable jumbo frames on the switches and set the MTU on them and your unraid to 9000+. Do the same for your PC.
nice idea theory but real world sadly using rj45 ffor 10gb s STILL beyond fuktarded expensive. I wired my entire house when we go it in cat6e with the goal of 10GB networking.. that was over a decade ago. a few (very few nd all stupid $$$) MBs are just now startingto get multi GB NICs nd most o those are 2.5 or 5. So only real way forr copper 10gb is still a standalone PCIe X4 card which stiil are well over $100 each.. so price wise they are idiotic andd they need a \t lest a PCIe x4 slot,, which most mbs lack,, (most comonly have 1 or 2 x16 slots.. and a few have x8 but the majority do not)) So assuming you have a mb with a spare pcie x16 (that usually will run at x8 max) that oftten will cause slowddownns in the main x16 for video,, so bad side effect.. Add to that the added power draw and heat which are 2 of the primary reasons 10gb copper was not widely adopted (which has caused prices to stay high) and well as much as I wish i could say otherwise. 10gb over copper is inferior and wont become the std anytime soon. 2.5 or maybe 5 might.. but again thats a big if.. Now assuming a fully packed network: So while you spent $600 on a switch you will need in theory 24 10GB nics at over $100 each (but assuming $100 for buying in bulk) plus cat6a or better cables (those are cheap).. for a rough estimated cost of $3000 in base hardware not counting cables.. and the energy use for such will be 50x+ due to inefficiency and heat add then added cooling etc so a per system cost of aprox $125 at a min. And don't forget length restrictions and much greater susceptibility for interference (including improper termination) Now flip side like I am using.. i "needed" 10gb on realistically 3 systems.. but t ca be done for 24port etc s well regardless of DAC or FO.. each system will need a card for a sfp connector. They can be found quite cheap.. $25cn each or less if you dig around :) Then for shorter runs use of a DAC works nicely and is relatively cheap For longer runs just a pair of SFP+ ends (I use mostly LC to LC type with the same type of cable of course) and the actual cable is quite cheap over all and vastly superior for signal vs noise etc and longer runs are easily done w/o issues unlike coppers limitations, Ultimately though the 10GB over copper is more $$$ sadly and is more limited which is why it was not really adopted in business.
To answer your question, yes you can with a lot of enterprise-grade switches can do this. You even used close to the correct terminology Link Aggregation. Mind you, of course, there is the IEEE standard, but of course, there are Proprietary link aggregations standards. So be mindful that in your multi-vendor infrastructure environment you could from some incapabilities. Cisco certainly does have their own standard, not sure about NetGear, i have only used them on pleb grade networks that are super flat. Not to say they dont have features in their smart switchs, but i never done it before on a NetGear. But i would be surprised if they did not have it, between Cisco, HP ProCurves, Juniper EX, FortiSwitchs and dell powerconnects have all had it in their managed switches for the past decade or so. Link Aggregation, LAG, LACP and PAgP are all terms that will lead you in directions relative to my understood intent of your proposed question. via the means of a google search. welcome to the wonderful world of switching. have fun.
10gig network always go in a VLAN seperated to rest of the network. And your using the uplinks wrong. Also setup jumbo frames on the switch as well as the machines on the 10gig network. Use iperf3 and not iperf or iperc2 they are broken

Yes please Enable Jumbo Frames
Is this loud is the fans on this switch? I share an office with wife and network rack.
