As explained several times (and I'm not Netgear) most of the earlier Plus switches, are built on a non-managed, just configurable unmanaged switch core, extended by a simple 8051-style Micro Controller, listening to all traffic on the switch to implement not only NSDP or Web UI, also for handling the ICMP snooping. The administration (being Web UI, being the Netgear Switch Discovery Protocol NSDP) does always work on untagged frames (== access ports ... tagged frames are not detected accordingly) - there is nothing like management VLAN. At no point Netgear has promoted or sold the Plus switches as a cheap replacement of a managed or smart switch.
Some bigger and newer Plus switches models like XS7**E/EM, XS5**E/EM, MS108EUP are built on managed cores, supporting a real management VLAN.
Always amazing to me on how some brokers or second-hand resellers are falsely designating these as Managed Switches.
Note: This applies to Plus switches only as mentioned (including the Gaming Switches). Switches offered as Smart Managed Switches are fully supporting management VLANs fellow LaurentMa
