I have deployed 3850s to several customers and they haven't reported any issues so far. They have been deployed at the access layer at some of our larger customers. We have a few sites that have the IP Base version running EIGRP stub in a layer 3 access design. Again, no issues so far.

Not a bad thought. Looking at the buffer size table looks like its much fatter than the 2960.. The 3850 and 3650 seem like OK middle ground. Anybody deploy those? They decent?

They are also relatively cheap and can be bought used at a good discount. If you don't need 10/100 then the Nexus 9300 series has a shared 50Mbyte buffer. But they are relatively pricey and new so used is not really available. Mack McBride | Senior Network Architect | ViaWest, Inc.

Looks like I'll be working to replace the switch with something with more power. Any body have a recommendation for a switch with some bigger buffers and 2x 10G uplinks? Need at least 12 Gig ports.
