GS408EPP - no voltage on POE port through patch panel, only direct
Dear All, I have a very strange problem at hand. I have a GS408EPP unmanaged 8 port POE switch and some PoE devices (Axis P1447-LEs). There's a patch panel connected to a 25m run of Cat6 cable with ...
The GS408EPP is not unmanaged, much more it's a Smart Managed Plus switch.
Consult with the GS408EPP Downloads pages for the current firmware. You can use a Web browser or the ProSafe Plus Utility (Windows only) for the update process as well as for the simple Web management. Consult your DHCP server for the switch IP address, or use the Netgear Switch Discovery Tool (MacOS or Windows).

Dear schumaku,
that's really funny. It was sold to me as dumb switch and the price tag seemed to imply that too :)
It didn't use the DHCP server so I didn't find it in my logs either. Only after your message I tried the default ip and found the thing. Turns out there's at least two bugs in the 1.0.0.10 firmware. It doesn't use DHCP even if configured to, and it doesn't power up my PoE devices when they are not directly connected to the switch.
Thanks a heap!
Best regards!
