VLAN on XS728T so switch can connect to internet
I have a simple newbie question: We have a 10.0.1.x LAN on the switch which we do not want to have internet access. But, I need a VLAN port that can access our 192.168.1.x LAN simply so the switch ca...
Ok, I think I figured it out...

Hi Schumaku, thanks for responding.
I agree about browser registration. Well, at least, that’s how I registered our original XS728T 3 years ago. This current one is a warranty replacement from NETGEAR. I keep getting pop up warnings that automatic registration failed. And, that I need to connect the switch to the internet
