I am looking for a product that will suit my needs.
I have two Fiber cables consisting of 24 cores each, 1 cable will be used on 12 different networks, the other cable is a redundant path for those 12 networks. I need a switch capable of keeping these networks isolated from each other but also capable of detecting a fault/issue and automatically switching to it's redundant path. If it has had to switch to the redundant path the switch will need to annunciate that there was an issue with the network that faulted.
Is it more logical to get 24 seperate switches with 4 ports that support IGNP snooping? Does this product exist?
