Hi Btraina2007 ,
In fact, the M4250 AV UI is allowing just that in Configure\Overview page. You just neeed to change the STP Network Redundancy there. By default this Neutral Mode, and all switches at the edge should stay like that. But at the core, the primary switch you want to use needs to be configured in "Primary Mode". Please save that once done. Then log to the second core switch, and select the "Backup Mode" and save. This should solve your issue.
You can always send an email to ProAVDesign@netgear.com for assistance on the NETGEAR AV Line of switches (M4250 M4300, M4500).
I hope this helps,
