Hi velis,
I have inquired your concern to a higher tier of NETGEAR Support. I'm afraid to inform you that it is not possible to do what you require unfortunately.

The manual doesn't help:
I connect via telnet. However, the list of supported commands is practically blank: Ezconfig, enable, help, logout, password, ping, quit, show and telnet.
If I try to enter "poe", I would expect to get a help on using the command. What I get, however, is a syntax error, pointing to the letter "o".
I would appreciate a guide on this.

I don't see however, how I can progress from this *designed for interactive management* into a script that would do what I want. Obviously this manual is not the way.
