xs716T change management vlan id failed
I got a xs716t switch its F/W version is 7.0.0.20
my final goal is to make this switch's management vlan id change from 1 to 1029(which had vlan routing configured for remote access).
somehow, after several tries the management vlan just can't be changed and the connection will lost.
I read this dicussion: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Managed-Switches/Howto-change-management-vlanid-on-gs724T/td-p/1307785
and tried to configure it the same way but failed eventually.
my workstation was connected to port 16 to access the xs716t's default ip 192.168.0.239.
can anyone clarify the correct steps to change the management vlan?
is it like this:
1. configure port 16 to vlan id 1029 with untagged
2. change the port pvid from 1 to 1029 on the port 16.
3. change management vlan id to 1029.
4. done.
the problem is the connection lost when doing step 3...
so frustrating..
can anyone give me some hints please?
There are never to many questions.
It does not make to much sense isolating the management VLAN to a dedicated network, and in the next step right away put up almost non-controlled short cut inter-VLAN routing on the switch. The idea of having a management VLAN is that you have some security appliance with firewall rules and probably additional authentication, some dedicated VPN, ... connecting to that management VLAN where in-band and out-of-band management ports, console servers, and so on where only people with physical access or strong authentication can gain access to.

- Use a different port. The moment you change the PVID to the new management VLAN on the port you are connected to the computer is fully associated to the VLAN 1029 while the management VLAN is still VLAN 1 ...
Not sure what your idea is ref. routing for remote access.schumakuthanks for the hint!!
regarding to the remote access,
i meant i want to make vlan 1029 (management vlan) routable to other vlans, and access this xs716's management IP via other networks.
e.g. from internet to vlan 1030's gateway IP(10.30.0.254) and route to vlan 1029's gateway IP (10.29.0.254)then reach the XS716T management IP.
however, it seemed that intergace ip can't be assigned to management vlan and it became 0.0.0.0/0 automatically. I don't get it.
does anyone know how vlan routing was designed on this switch?
