New to OPNsense, but have some minor experience with networking. Looking to change out my switches to managed ones for vlans when I decide to do it. Can you advise if the following switches would be good enough for learning purposes without spending a ton of money?
Netgear 8p (4 POE) switch - GS108PEv3
Netgear 24p (0 POE) switch - JGS524v2
Netgear 16p (8 POE) switch - JGS516PE
Netgear 8p (8 POE) switch - GS110TP
With one each of these, I would be able to switch out my current unmanaged switches and run all of my equipment. Do you see anything that would not be a good idea to use with OPNsense or in general? Not looking for anything past gigabit as I don't do much that would require it. Mostly media streaming and security cameras.
I appreciate the input.

Those should work fine and deliver on vlan. they're a bonus having some level of prioritization. I use the GS308EP series. I think the gs108 should be similar. I don't do port bonding/lagg, and these do only a more basic mode than lacp.
