Look for a switch that supports Protected Ports \ Port Isolation

Hi Everyone,

 

I am looking for a switch that supports port isolation \ protected ports so connected clients can see the internet but not each other. 

I know this can be done via VLANs but that is overkill for our current needs. Can anyone tell me if any current netgear switch models support this? Particularly the gs750e?

 

I see references to port protection on some older netgear models but can't seem to find anything recent.

 

Thank you!

  • Check the How do I configure protected ports on a smart switch? - especially the "This article applies to" list. There you find several decent switches. However, there is only one Smart Managed Pro (.....E) in fact that 10G model does have a much more capable switch core than what is in place on the other Smart Managed Plus devices.

      I'm not sure how I missed that but it's exactly what I need.
