GS324T: configuration forgotten after a reboot.

Question

GS324T: SNMP authPriv password is forgotten after a reboot. Why no AES?

Firmware: 1.0.0.30

When I reboot the GS324T switch the SNMP authPriv password is forgotten. Please make the switch remember its configuration over a reboot.

Also, why no AES for SNMP?

Also, why no SNMPv3 Traps?

Have managed to contact Netgear support about the configuration loss issue, e.g. via https://my.netgear.com?

"Wishing" is nice - however we talk of a switch on a port cost of something slightly above of 5 USD. What is the business case here? The Smart Managed Pro are by specs single user devices - no multi-user administration et all.

Perfectly understand where you are coming from.&nbsp;jcdutton&nbsp;wrote:Well, I purchased the unit based on the Datasheets stating "SNMP v3 with multiple IP addresses"Yes, somewhat unsharp defnition ... but it does not state multiple users. This marketing and featue information requires a revision.&nbsp;jcdutton&nbsp;wrote:But is does not support SNMP v3 for TRAPs.As I've said before: "By rule of thumb, lack of UAM support in general - SNMPv3 traps are bound to users, isn't it?" - single user, no UAM.&nbsp;Please understand I'm not Netgear and do just try to sort the feature set on this edge ref. differentiating from managed switch class.&nbsp;&nbsp;[EDIT] Correction. Of course there is -one- user named admin. this would allow handling SNMPv3 TRAPs. It's simply not available. [/EDIT]&nbsp;jcdutton&nbsp;wrote:FYI. SNMP v3 means SNMPv2 with encryption.Of course, I'm to long in this business, too. 8-)&nbsp;
