I am undecided as to whether to get the 16-port Trendnet web smart switch or the 12-Port NetGear in lieu of the TP Link switch. I currently have the NetGear GS110TP 8-port. That will go out to the front room to connect the entertainment system (Power Amp, TV, MacMini) components of my home network. The 16-port will go into my backroom as the main Smart switch. I have the new Synology 1513+ NAS unit which has 4 Gigabit ports. This brings to mind a couple questions:
Q1.
Link Aggregation: Can I use link aggregation of the 4.-ports on the Synology 1513+ to, say, the TrendNet TEG-160WS?
Q2.
Link Aggregation differnet models: Can I do link aggregation with one model being from Trendnet and the other smart switch from Netgear (GS110TP)?
Q3.
SFP: If I decide to use SFP between the two switches, can that be done between two different models?
P.S.: If no IPv6 support, this would be the one point deal breaker for me. Although not in widespread use yet (until there is an emergency on IP addresses) this is one feature I would want to have to 'future-proof' myself'.
