I need a simple solution for a (wired)hostel network.
I need a switch that I can configure its port (enable & disable only). When a student subscribe an Internet service, I will enable the switch port assigned to his room.
I don't need any VLAN feature$.
Can somebody suggest to me brand/model that can do that simple task ???
Telnet or web-based preferred.
