FSM7226P models only access UI via IE browser.
hi there, after a major power shut down to multiple locations. I just happened to notice I can only access the UI switches only with Internet Explorer. My preference used to be Chrome in Incognito. ...
Hi, I can confirm that the M4100 10.0.2.35 (GSM5212P in my case) is still accessible from Firefox 99.0 and Edge 101.
It could be that some policy or local settings have disabled TLS 1.0 and/or the ciphers the switch offers in your browsers.The M4100 firmware only supports TLS 1.0 and ciphers suites with SHA1 only. At some point browser will start
enabling TLS 1.0 by default and then it will be become even harder (i.e. disabling HTTPS, back to HTTP).The M4100 are end of life by now and the last firmware dates back to late 2019, so while it can still be done,
the days are counted and you should be looking into a planned replacement for the switches if they are in production
use.
Hi DaneA,
all my browsers are up to date. The switches are connected to USP's, the only browsers that work is IE.
This is becoming a major concern because we have multiple locations with similar switches model having the same behaviour. Unfortunately, I'm working remotely so I didn't get a chance to connect directly, but later on I can try to connect to a PC remotely on the same lan as the switch and see If I can.
Maybe it is an ssl certificate error issues. Any thoughts?
Thanks,

Not sure it helps in your case. However, for users still maintaining legacy devices like older switches, routers, and more - be aware IE11 will go out of service soon. Nice workaround (with no bad hacks) is the ability to operate modern Edge in IE11 mode on select devices, local or remote does not matter: FMI https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/edge-ie-mode
