I needed a small, inexpensive appliance to run a small server farm at home. I also use monitoring tools to manage traffic spikes and usage. This device was easy to set up and can be queried for performance metrics via SNMP. Device control is very simple but powerful. You have control over many advanced settings without having to have CCNA to understand.
