Testing more network switch vendors to find the least sucky. This one boots into GRUB and NetBSD and also is this a switch or a server?!pic.twitter.com/C9PN9ZtU1h

I wonder why x86? Does your Dell switch support some fancy routing/filtering? What chipset are they using to implement the network ports?
I think these are all Broadcom based switching ICs. It does do L2/L3 modes. Then again every switch seems to run Linux/BSD these days...

There's likely ARM cpu on the switch ic, enough for http/cli/basic reg stuff...; x86 alongside sounds overkill unless for firewall or bgp

Yeah, the switch IC has a dual core Cortex-A9 which I guess they aren't really using for anything.
