Add the field "Port Description" to the hover over display on the Insight Switch Summary page
Please can you add the field "Port Description" to the hover over display on the Netgear Insight Switch Summary page.
When you want to map and record what device or patch port is connected to each port, its slow to have to go into the properties for each port, its best in the hover over button please.

Put picture up on a cloud share then post the shared URL code here in your post by selecting the Camera icon then select From Image URL.
