802.1Q / gs108t vs gs108tv3
Hi there, I have a gs108t switch that broke and while waiting for the replacement I bought a gs108tv3. Unfortunately, I can't get it to work like the v1 works. My installation is as follows:...
The Loop Protection is (like STP or RSTP!) independent of the VLANs. Fact is that these ports can "see" and reach the other ports in a L2 transparent way. The Loop Protection does send out a certain frame type, and does monitor if the same frames are received on other ports. A kind of poor-men's STP 8-)
8-Port Gigabit (PoE+) Ethernet Smart Managed Pro Switch with (2 SFP Ports and) Cloud Management Models GS108Tv3, GS110TPv3, and GS110TPP User Manual is your friend - almost 500 pages of great documentation for small switches - p.230 ff "Configure Layer 2 loop protection". You can control it globally, or by port.
Thanks!
In fact I had already disabled Loop Protection on ports 2 & 4
I've added port 5 and I'll see what happen
