Smart Managed Pro Switch and TLS 1.2 support

With the recent release of Firefox (v74) any SSL connection that's not connecting at TLS 1.2 is flagged.  I don't believe the Smart Managed Pro models support 1.2 (not even 1.1, just 1.0), do they?  I only have the one GS724Tv4 with the latest firmware v6.3.1.34 - so didn't know if any of the other models had that option available to them.

Thanks!

    One click to override for the moment.

    Smart Managed Pro is a generic designation for the Web Smart Managed switches devices for about 20 years.

    The GS716Tv3, GS724Tv4 and GS748Tv5 line is a little aged - appears Netgear has not cared yet for updating these devices core code including TLS 1.2 or newer support. YeZ please assist.

      They might be aged, but as of the 2020 Product Catalog - they are still listed.  Seems strange that they would abandon the line - but if the entire product suite can't support secure communications using a protocol that was released back in 2008 - maybe they should.

    From Firefox v83, notice the comment about TLS being permanently disabled....
