Verdict

The ES-3148 offers easy setup through console or RJ-45 ports, good stacking and SFP options, but only a limited range of Layer-3 routing functions.

Pros: Rear gigabit ports for stacking up to 24 more switches; environmental monitoring function for checking switch hardware temperatures; 16K MAC address table.

Cons: Only supports SNMP v2; limited Layer 3 routing.
