GS308EP SSH acces

Is there any way to access this switch via ssh?
Only having the webgui is very inconvinient.

If not is there any pla to do so?
I have not found a roadmap of some sorts...

Kind regards,

    The same limitations apply to virtually all Netgear Plus switches, most not built on a managed core platform. The tiny microcontroller is already challenged for simple IPv4 stack, plain text Web UI; IGMP snooping (v1, v2, and v3), and the like. It  comes to it's CPU limits in normal operations already,  There is simply no headroom for advanced ssh (nor for https) code. last but not least, there have no CLI available in general.

     

    The Web UI is workable even on mobile devices - much better than any shell.
