Auto renable Ports if D-Disabled (Flood Control, MAC Control, etc.)

It is a nice feature, that flooded/storm/looped ports may become disabled.

but in all cases they should be reenabled after some time.

there should be an option to auto reenable a port with this error after n minutes.

say loop 1 minutes disabled, flood 5 minutes disabled.

after this time it should have some retries like 3-5 retries. if condition still occurs it should automatically scale the time to 50, 500, 5000 minutes or sth else.

so problems could be resolved without admin access.

this should be OPTIONAL per feature.

I was just looking for this - I'm seeing an increase in disabled ports but the netgear doesn't seem to log enough information on this for me to diagnose it.

Netgear has many jobs todo, but actually it seems, they dont care much about their very outdated and ugly web-interface.

They need a complete redesign, especially the need for changing between so many pages is very bad.

also important logs should be more promiment..
