find MAC address
How do you find the MAC address of this switch?
See attached .jpg file....
As seen in that image, 2 Netgear switches show as NETGEAR but the third one, the GS605, is not identified.
The other two switches are some Smart Managed Plus (like the first GS108E on 10.1.10.3), Smart Managed Pro, or fully managed Netgear switch models - that' why these show up. You can use the Netgear Switch Discovery Tool available for MacOS or Windows and then enter the eact model number on NETGEAR Support Let's get started page to gain access to the switch product documentation to learn about the management and configuration options.
The 20:D1:60 device on 10.1.10.48 has a private MAC address as shown by your scanner. This is very unlikely for Netgear switch - best guess in a consumer environment might be an iOS/iPadOS, Android device, Windows 10 device, or any other device which can randomize any network (also wireless) adapter MAC, or some visualisation platforms (operating VMs) or Docker containers - almost any OS can, except of MacOS Big Sur if I have it right.
For the last time: In case your third switch is a truly a GS608 model (as shown on the product label), it is not Web configurable or manageable in any other way, and it has no MAC address (and no IP for the very same reason).
