Please consider using HTTPS for the web management of the GS1xxE line of switches.
Especially the smaller models need a secure way to configure them as there are no real replacements for in-field deployments outside special technical rooms where is no room to fit an entire rack into...
As the current state of security of many of the embedded or IoT thingis is sub-optimal it is crucial to prevent login credential sniffing via other pOwnd network devices within the same subnet.
Thanks,

It is absurd that the GS110EMX does not support https. How can this be? It’s irresponsible to have any device not support https. Please add https support to the GS110EMX. I do not want to send my device password in plaintext across my network!

Please allow SNMP monitoring on ports when these are changed to stacking uplink interface mode. Monitoring systems such as Zabbix, really any SNMP based monitoring, currently isn't able to notify when ports change operational status or contribute to bandwidth pattern analysis (eg identifying a faulty SFP+ or damaged cable). I initially logged this as a bug over two years ago, sad not to see this having been implemented yet, although I never did remember to request this... My original support query, where I was told that this would need to be a feature request: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Managed-Switches/Netgear-M4300-Spine-and-Leaf/m-p/1668669#M6906 PS: The 1 hour forum posting limit is *REALLY* annoying. Please consider possibly making the time penalty 10 minutes or only triggering after 5 posts.

Many NTGR business products still have SSL 2.0 and 3.0 and TLS 1.0 as options - nowadays these are obsolete and should be removed, TLS 1.2 is in the field for more then 10 years, so there should be no more prehistorical Web browser still requiring anything different.

Please add a page to auto display the MAC address of all the devices attached to the switch. By default, each port should be disabled, and I will enable it if I want to allow the attached device to access the network. It will be easier to set up ACL by Mac. No typing MAC addresses no rules to setup. Of course if you want to setup ACL by rules it should disable or override this page. But most network setups will really benefit from this simple way of controlling rogue devices and protecting unsupervised data ports. Consider that this feature will give Netgear and advantage over the competition. I will change all my network switches for those that have a feature like this.

Dear developers,
it would be great to be able to configure VLAN for management only.
See also this thread:
https://community.netgear.com/t5/Smart-Plus-Click-Switches/GS108Ev3-Cannot-set-VLAN-for-management-interface/td-p/971240
If that is too much work could you please implement the possibility to disable Webif with Plus Utility?
Reason for this is to get rid of this limitation /unpleasant behaviour:
"To support WEB GUI, all HTTP packets are forwarded to the embedded CPU. With Flow Control enabled, throughput will be impacted if the rate is higher than the CPU can handle."
or at least having a workaround to avoid it!
Kind Regards

Hello, I'm using IEEE 802.1x wired authentication on my switches, generally it's working ok, but a bit slow as the switch tries to authenticate to the RADIUS server and can't get an authentication, you'll get timeouts and retries and when all of this fails the guest VLAN will be assinged to the port. All good and well, but I also use PXE boot for installations and sometimes different bootmodes and the time it takes to get a connection with the VLAN exceeds the timeout of DHCP resulting in not connecting. I can do some finetuning limiting the timeouts and rerequest, also change the DHCP timeout a bit. In some cases this works, but it's a hassle, I've seen on HP switches that I use that they just assign the guest VLAN (or default VLAN) to the port while attempting the authentication giving a way more smoother experience. I would like to suggest to assign the guest VLAN first and then attempt an authentication, changing the VLAN if/when authentication is accepted. I found this to be the case in all NETGEAR switched that I used, not a particular range.

Hi, I'm using a GS110TP switch with firmware 5.4.2.33. The HTTPs interface is enabled and working. The problem is that Firefox is now considering the GUI as unsecured because of TLS 1.0. There's no way to enable TLS 1.2 and it's a real security problem. Is it possible to get a new firmware with TLS 1.2 support ? Regards.

Hello:
The GS105PE switch is a great idea and potential problem solver. Unfortunately, due to one design flaw, it is only "almost" useful.
There are a few different switches that support PoE Passthrough on a single port. What makes this switch so awesome is that it has two ports. With an 802.3at (PoE+) feed, there is enough power to power two devices of common PoE types (for example, two PoE telephones). Of course, with this its also potentially possible to plug in two devices that use too much power and end up overloading the feed port. Fortunately, MOST poe devices out there do not have this problem.
Unfortunately, this switch is hamstrung by a design choice: the overload problem is solved by PoE class limitations rather than actual current limits. In order to use both ports, you have to plug in class 1/2 devices, if you have even one class0 or class3 device, then you only get one. Period. Even if that device only wants 2.5w.
This is a more extreme problem than it appears because most PoE PE chip makers have switched to only making class 3 chips. Thus most devices advertise class 3, even if they only need class 2. Except for this switch, this is no issue, as normal PoE switches regulate by combined power, not class. That's why I can get an 8 port 60W PoE switch that supports class 3. At full class 3, that allows nearly 13 watts per port, or 104W for all 8 ports.
It appears Netgear used this worst-case design method when designing this device. Please correct this huge oversight and just use power limiting rather than class-based limiting. It would be fine to shut off the port output and flash the power light if the total available budget is exceeded. Without that, this becomes a single-port PoE passthrough, not the two port its advertised as.

I've had an unfair share of trouble when trying to restore saved configuration files (.cfg config) to GS108Ev2 running firmware 1.00.12. Eventually, I gave up and reprogrammed 3 switches from scratch. I had to go through the whole building to locate them. Brought with myself a laptop and had a phone handy to talk to a guy in the control room.
I think I found out what happened: Older versions of the Plus Utility do not support the password encryption required by V1.00.10 firmware. The old config files had unencrypted passwords (I checked with a hex editor). The new firmware expects its password encrypted, so it couldn't load the old password. I was locked out of the switches.
A cleartext header in the config file could help, so the switch (or the user!) knows which firmware version saved the config. If you want to make it really functional, have the firmware perform appropriate checks at load (restore) time, so old unencrypted passwords keep on working on new firmware versions.

The GSS108EPP is almost the perfect switch for my needs with Poe and LAG functionality. However connecting it to my older GS724Tv3 switch, I have had to set the LAG mode to Static mode as my latest switch the 108EPP does not have Dynamic / LACP functionality. However I can't connect to my Asus Router in the same way as that only accepts the more robust LACP method. Please can you advise if you are planning to add LACP mode for LAG setup to the GSS108EPP? I am sure many would find this useful and allow much better compatibility with other devices.

Please ensure NTGR does publish the Letter of Volatility (LOV) along with the product support download pages. We see that requests for LOV are taking reasonable bandwidth in the community support, temporary file downloads will be enabled with valid for a few days only. This makes the replies virtually useless, because the download is no longer available. So we see requests for the same product LOV again, or we get new posts. All this can be avoided...
Thank you for consideration!
Regards,
-Kurt

It is a very unsafe design to have the switch listen to every VLAN that's configured as untagged in one of its physical ports for its web management. It would be a relatively simple change to add a specific vlan to listen to for management, regardless of whether a port is marked untagged for this vlan or not. See: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Smart-Plus-and-Smart-Pro-Managed/GS108Ev3-Cannot-set-VLAN-for-management-interface/td-p/971240 Please change this

When remotely accessing or managing a switch, it is not possible to tell which device is connected to which port.
When troubleshooting it is very useful to see which port a switch has learned a MAC address from.
Since switching is it's core function, knowing what information it is basing it's switching decisions on is enormously useful for tracing issues and performance monitoring
In any network of more than a few switches, or any lights-out facilities, MAC address tracing is an essential feature.
Display a simple table of MAC address, switch port source, age

Got 2 requests that could improve the .1q VLAN features on the "Plus" switch line:
-Descriptions for VLANs - this would be super simple to add, I would think.
-InterVLAN routing - less simple

Hi, for a bit quietly work of switch you can add a options to configure fan or give some premade modes to select. The fan can turn on more often and with smaller power. I think that the switch now is a bit loud and it's disturb when it's quiet and only the switch rotating the fan.

Not having a way to clearly understand what VLAN the device is communicating on is a terrible security flaw... essentially then anyone on the untrusted VLAN simply has to guess one password and then is able to completely reroute any traffic by retagging ports and changing membership. In addition, the device appears to be sending out DHCP requests on all VLANs, so it is receiving IPs from random VLANs as well, so impossible to manage from the trusted network. As an aside, I also have Smart Managed Pro switch, much more expensive and many more features. This is the ONLY feature that needs to be added to make this is a "basic" managed switch. (Keep in mind this is a 10gbe product as well). Without this, however, there is a clear security issue since the only thing protecting the network is a single password.
