Port trunking on GSS108E
Hi everyone,
Just a quick question, as to me it's not entirely clear from Netgear's website or documentation:
Does the Click Switch GSS108E support VLAN port trunking or not ?
Following pages seem to indicate that it does (I do not see any explicit restriction on GSS108E concerning port trunking):
http://netgear.com/business/products/switches/click/click-switch.aspx#tab-highlights
http://netgear.com/business/products/switches/click/click-switch.aspx#tab-features
While following page says port trunking is limited to GSS116E only !
http://www.netgear.be/home/products/networking/switches/GSS108E.aspx
Also different review sites have different views on the subject, as some state that they succesfully created a trunk with this switch (http://www.storagereview.com/netgear_prosafe_click_switch_series_review) while others seem to indicate that trunking is impossible unless you have a GSS108EPP or GSS116E, both of which in my case are overkill (no need for PoE or 16 ports).
Does anyone have any experience with this switch ?
Thanks
Hi Woolfie001,
Welcome to the community!
GSS108E supports 802.1q VLAN port trunking as the model falls under Web Managed Click Switch.
Please refer to this manual(page 33).
