XR700 doesn't see Netgear ProSwitch GS110TP in Device Manager
I have LAG setup between the XR700 and the GS110TP. The router sees all wired devices connected to the GS110TP. The GS110TP has a static IP.
The GS110TP's IP doesn't show up in the XR700's Devi...
- Do you see the individual devices connected to the switch in the device manager? If so then that's normal behaviour.
Yes but I thought it was strange as the switch always showed up in the QoS list of my old Netgear R7800 router.
DumaOS Device Manager works in a different way, so it's not possible currently.

This sounds more than poor, sorry.
Hm you want to tell me that a device (GS110TP) with a MAC address (and even an IP address) connected to a port on the DumaOS router switch port can remain stealth to the DUmaOS Device Manager under some conditions?
What are these conditions? E.g. no traffic to the router/default gateway and/or the Internet?
You know what comes into my mind? It starts with a "j" ... sorry saying.- A switch basically provides more LAN ports so that more devices can have a wired connection. Having the ability to see all these devices individually on the interface and then add them to the Geo-Filter QoS etc is great. Having the switch added then adds a share to QoS that's unneeded or they may limit this bandwidth to nothing, users may add to the Geo-Filter and then filter everything connected to it unnecessarily.
The choice to not show this as a device makes more sense to me in terms of usability. Now I would agree with you if you said that having a new branch for a switch would be a great idea.
If you have another usecase for why it should be an individual device, I'd be happy to hear it. We're always striving to improve and hearing user feedback helps with that, sometimes users have thoughts we hadn't thought of!My opinion is clear: Any device with a MAC and IP must show up as a connected device. If all need to be covered by the funky features or not is a different story.
