GS316EP List of connected MAC addresses?
Hello.
GS316EP can support up to 4K mac addresses as per factory specs.
Any idea on how to list that MAC address table?
Need to find Mac addresses connected to the switchports but cant seem to find anything which is weird for a switch with such a cost.
Thanks.

This is correct, and certainly works - this does not have to be something accessible from outside.

Hm, we're facing a switch there the pure Gigabit Ethernet port price is around eight USD, with the PoE capability this comes up to about USD 12.50 per port. As such, the Plus switches are mostly configurable switches and are not designed around a managed core. Therefore, the microcontroller handling things does not have access to the switch internals, and can't show a Port-MAC address table.

At the same price you can get S3260-16T4FP that supports 4 SFP ports, CLI, SSH and access to similar internal switch functions without an issue.
Not really, at least not what I see here in Swizerland - the small formfactor and fanless GS316EP is less than 200 CHF, the other brand Smart Managed Pro type switch with a fan (and PoE+ capabilities and a slightly higher power budget plus SNMP) is at least 50% more expensive (> 300 CHF here). Two very different products.
Netgear does also offer Smart Managed Pro type switches of course, for example an 24 port PoE+ GS324TP is still 20% below the other vendor price (~260 CHF here).
