CLI support for GS108Tv2?!

Dear Community,

 

I'm new on this forum but have been using Netgear stuff in a SoHo setting for some 15 years now. First a ReadyNAS RND4000NV, then a WNDR3800 (wifi) router, and then a bunch of GS108T managed switches. Wonderful stuff. Recently bought one more GS108T but this turns out to be a different beast. I found that my old switches are GS108Tv2 and my latest is GS108Tv3. And the latter supports CLI. Being a Cisco pro (bit rusty now), I instantaneously activated Telnet access (to the CLI) to experiment with it. Nice! But now I'm wondering about my bunch of GS108Tv2's: do these also have CLI support (either official or non official)?!

 

Thanx in advance,

 

Steyn van Essen

    Hello Steyn-van-Essen​ 

     

    Try telnet on port 60000 ...

     

    Remember neither that nor the official CLI is a key component similar to Cisco IOS.
