Can you "stack" these two Netgear Switches or "Trunk" them
I own a JGS516PE and a GS724T V2. I currently have a flat network 192.168.1.0/24. My network has grown to the point (also includes ip cameras and many IOT devices) where I think I should segment th...

Is your Internet router VLAN-aware? If not, you need a device that can do inter-VLAN routing. JGS516PE is a simple L2 switch so it can’t do routing. GS724T is a routing switch so it can be configured for inter-VLAN routing. However, you still need a multi-subnet DHCP server. According to its datasheet, GS724T does not provide one so you would need to have that DHCP server somewhere else. This DHCP issue is even more complicated, because GS724T is one of those NETGEAR routing switches that do not provide a DHCP relay, either.

Yes, my router is Vlan capable. Currently a Netgate SG-1100 running pfSense plus. However because the SG-1100 is not enough hardware for 1Gbps fiber wan and not enough to do inter-vlan routing with multiple vlans I intend to virtualize on a Dell R710 running Proxmox that has a 4 port 1Gbps Broadcom NIC.
I am pretty sure I have a plan to move forward with.
Thanks for all the responses to this post.
