CLI "unknow command"
Hello,
My compagnie has just provided me a NETGEAR GS108T and asked me to programmaticaly disable a specified port.
To do that, I need to do it manually first with CLI.
I have successfully connected to the SWITCH with telnet. According to a NETGEAR CLI user manual, I need to enter these following commands to disable a port :
#config #interface 1/0/2
#shutdown and other commands
But when I write "#interface 1/0/2" to access to the 2nd port, the switch reply "unknow command"
What did I do wrong ? Probably this model of switch is not compatible with all CLI commands ?
Thank you,
Gautier
Hi GautierS49,
The GS108T does not support CLI commands.
Instead, you'll need to access the admin page of the switch by typing its IP address via web browser and going to Switching > Ports > Port Configuration then check g2 and set its port speed to Disable.
Once done, click Apply to confirm its settings.Please let us know if you encounter any issues.
