GS724Tv4 all connected activity leds flashing constantly
I just replaced my recenlty deseased second hand GS724v2 for a GS724tv4 and i am bit overwhelmed with all the new settings and options. The first thing I did after unboxing the switch was updating t...
I think I got it figured now.
I hadn't set PVIDs for the corresponding VLANs, all interfaces had PVID 1.
Now interface 1-5 have PVID 4, and Interface 6-24 have PVID 5.
And now the activity leds have stopped flashing for non active ports.
Is this the correct way to do this? And should the default VLAN be left as it is
Luckily I didn't change the PVID of all the intefaces at once because the switch became unreachable when I changed the the PVID on the interface I was connected to. But after changing the Management VLAN ID number I got it working again. I there to not have a speciffic Management VLAN ID so it's possible to manage the switch using any VLAN IDs?
These LAGs are not configured per se: they are only provisioned in the system.
You cannot remove the provisioning, again this is not configuration: they are blank if you wish.
To answer your question, sometimes a LAG can have one port configured, only. In reality, LAG capacity is equal to the switch port count on this switch for convenience. This way a port can have a configuration A as a physical port, and a configuration B provisioned under a 1-port LAG that is switchable by enabling or disabling the LAG.

Ah, ok. I think I understand.
Thanks you for your help, and your patience.
