Yep, you are correct. My mistake sorry freebsd-net.

Intel 510T Layer 2 managed 10/100 switch: dirt cheap.
Intel 520T Layer 2 managed 10/100 switch: dirt cheap.
Intel 550T Layer 3 managed 10/100 switch: dirt cheap.

According to ebay, the 550 can be had for about $30.00 USD.
In my opinion, thats a killer deal for a 24 port managed
ethernet switch. If I didnt allready have too many switches,
I would buy some.
