Lowest cost smart or managed switch with console interface
Could someone recommend lowest cost smart or managed switch with console interface?
I only need 4 ports but need to control over CLI, telnet or SSH.

Hi jak0lantash,
Thanks for your reply. I will buy one and try if I can disable any port via telnet.
Thanks again.
Hi jak0lantash,
I downloaded all manuals for this product and I could not find any information in regard to telnet; only web interface and netgear's utility.
Is this switch really accessable via telnet?
Thanks.
telnet on port 60000
You don't get a prompt for the username, but type admin.

I couldn't find an option to disable the service from the GUI, but you can very easily make an ACL if necessary.
Hi jak0lantash,
Can I use GS108T with one port with static IP address 192.168.0.xxx and another port with DHCP? Or do I need to break on different VLANs?
Thanks.
Hi jak0lantash,
I was able to telnet (GS108Tv2) but I didn't get the same prompt as you: (Broadcom FASTPATH Switching) #show version
instead I am "> >" as follows:
(Broadcom FASTPATH Switching)> >I type "date" command and get invalid input detected.
Do I need to login with a different account?Thanks.
Thanks jak0lantash!
Got it . . . it works!
Which command do I use to disable or shutdown port7?
Thanks again.
great!
And to re-enable the same port back again? I tried "enable" instead of shutdown and did not work.
Hi jak0lantash,
Great! Thanks very much!
