Small managed switch allow setting of managment VLAN

GS305 and similar switches. Enable selection/ specification of a management VLAN.

These switches already handle VLANs, but the management IP settings cannot specify anything besides the default VLAN. Talked to a few people that have also ran into this. I just had this on a GS 305 with latest firmware. I do networks not programming but this seems like would be a simple thing to add even a checkbox and a place to change the management VLAN, even if has to throw a warning that it will not be accessible the original way. Or could be the management vlan is set separately and the default IP can just stay on the default VLAN unless disabled by the user.
