Help with STP on GS748TP
I've been having problems with a SONOS system which has wired players to my Netgear GS748TP switch. SONOS support has given some advice on setting STP on the switch to help resolve the problem.

The solution presented by SONOS applies to managed switch and not smart switches. I suggest you to open a chat / case online on NETGEAR support and please let them know the status of the switch and escalate the case if needed.

Thanks for the reply.
This post on SONOS appears to suggest you should have STP enabled and BPDU Flooding.
This isn't achievable on this switch but it's been this way since I got the switch and I haven't had problems until recently. SONOS keep saying the SONOS players are being flooded with Multicast packets which is causing the problem.

Thanks I'll do that.
However from all the reading I've done smart and managed are used interchangeably by most people.
