Most wanted: Friendly Port Names everywhere
On every management page, we want to see friendly port names aka port descriptions.
so we dont have to remember on VLAN pages or other pages, which port number is important, instead we look for server1 or routerA or printer123..
Also for vlans the same.. always show a friendlich name instead of numbers only.
very easy to include.. but nobody cares from netgear..

Can't agree more.
User supplied names should become more core on all WebUI pages instead of being just another data field somewhere.
Offen sind myself going forth and back from a port or VLAN view for confirming the appropriate numeric index.
Names should be shown on every view, ideally searchable (like a CTRL-F).
This does not but apply only to the local WebUI, but similar to Netgear Engage LaurentMa
