Is there anything like a modem type command set that will allow me to tell an Ethernet switch to just work like a dumb hub? Mostly I want a hub so I can evesdrop from one port onto traffic between two others for troubleshooting purposes. But secondly I am trying to minimize delays, and it seems a switch won't start relaying a packet until it has recieved the whole packet and checksum so you get a whole packet length delay in the switch.
