Upgrading from SG500 to __________________???

[jeremy0023]

Ok, need some insight here. I am an old SG500 user and need to upgrade. I understand that the migration plan was from the sg500 to the sg550. Now, the "business switch" line is the next migration, but there is no comparable switch to the sg550, only the sg350. I would imagine the catalyst 1000 is the next comparable switch, but the specs still don't line up. It is lacking some of the layer 3 features like interval routing. I definitely can't lose that. Please advise. Thank you!

I have not used it Cat 1000 - but if you looking inter vlan routing Cat 1K do support :, i am sure its high version of SG 550, Lower version of Enterprise entry model

Everything I’m seeing about the cat1000 is that it is only layer 2 support
