If ports 1 & 2 of the M4100-D12G-POE+ (GSM5212P) switch is not connected to a PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) switch and you want it to use it as regular port to connect devices such as PCs, kindly answer the questions below:
a. Is there an error message that appears if you will just use ports 1 & 2 as regular ports?
b. What is the behavior of the port 1 LED light as well as port 2 LED light if you are just using it as regular port?
c. If you will connect a PC to either port 1 or port 2, does it have a connection within the LAN?
d. What is the current firmware version of the M4100-D12G-POE+ (GSM5212P) switch you have?
Regards,

I was wondering if we could use ports 1&2 as PoE ports. Having gone through the configuraitons and reading more about it, I can use them as regular ports. I was just wondering if there is a way to use them as PoE ports. I have the latest firmware on the switch and only one LED is on which indicates its communicating with the PC.
