    I was planning to buy an SG-2220 for another location, and clone it with the config from my SG-2440 (I only use it as a firewall, with VLANs and a fair number of rules).  I don't use the OPT ports.
    With SG-2220 no longer being sold, I'm looking at either a SG-1000 or a SG-3100.  I'd be quite happy to save the money and get the SG-1000.
    Probably 6 - 12 browser devices online at one time, max.  Some being used to watch movies.  Security (IP) cameras, but they're uploading images, not streaming video.
    Should the SG-1000 support this, and should I be able to reuse my SG-2440 config?
    thank you!

      RE the config- make sure the third interface isn't assigned when you save the config. You will need to re-assign the vlans to the new parent interface before you re-assign after the restore. Other than that, it should be a big deal.

        @dotdash sorry for the late response, and thanks for your reply!
        I ended up going with an SG-1100, and it seems to be holding up pretty well. I have yet to install pfBlockerNG on it though, so not sure if it will be enough for that. If anyone else is looking at doing this, it was a little tricky getting familiar with the fact that all of the ports belong to an internal switch, but I was able to work through it with a little help from the internet :)
