Security criteria for selecting a network switch?

I am looking to purchase a switch with 24+ ports. The set of security criteria that I should bear in mind when selecting a switch is not clear to me.

I have tried to take other networking security issues into account already, and I'm only asking about the set of risks related to a network switch. I have already set up a firewall to protect my network, configured my wireless access points for secure settings, and my networking equipment is in a locked closet. In light of reports of networking equipment being remote exploited, I'm trying to figure out what I need to consider when reviewing possible models.

Currently, I believe the following are important criteria:

1. Timely firmware updates

If an exploit for the switch is discovered, is there a way to update the firmware? Also, will the switch manufacturer supply a firmware update in a timely manner?

2. Management

Not sure if this will be a net security plus. On the one hand, might enable security-related features such as VLANs. On the other, might just expand the attack surface over a "dumb" unmanaged switch.

3. Management / Configuration interface

Should be via SSH or TLS to allow authorized access.

4. VLAN support

Allows network segregation (trusted vs. guest network), yet might expand the attack surface.

5. Reputation

Is this a situation where only a handful of manufacturers have a solid security track record? Or is this irrelevant?

6. Logging / SNMP

Useful for monitoring, or another attack surface not worth the trouble?

Are there other criteria that one should consider? Or refinements to the above criteria?
