I have M4100-50G switch that is a replacement for an old model. I have been doing a FTP going through port 48. For some reason I've noticed on this new model of switch i'm not able too, however if I moved my RJ45 over to port 46, the file transfers as expected. On the front of this switch port 48 appears to be part of what is called Combo Ports. I think the error message is connection refused.
Any ideas?
Model: GSM7248Pv1h1 | M4100-50G-PoE+46-port GE + 4 GE Combo L2 Managed PoE+ Switch
I found out that you have already contact NETGEAR Support with regard to your concern (case # 41141010).
Combo ports cannot be used at the same time. When either of the ports are enabled, the other port is automatically disabled. It means that you can either have a cable plugged into the copper 10/100/1000 interface, or the cable plugged into the SFP slot. If you have both plugged into the Combo ports, only one will work.
Kindly answer the questions below:
a. Are you transferring files between 2 devices that are both connected to the M4100-50G switch?
b. Are there VLANs configured on the M4100-50G switch? If yes, to what VLAN does ports 46 and 48T belong?
c. What is the specific device is connected to the 48T port?
d. Since there is a device connected to 48T port, is there also a device connected to 48F port? If yes, what specific device is it?
e. What is the current firmware version of the M4100-50G switch?
I apologize for the late response. Based from your feedback, I believe it should work. Let us try this, kindly upgrade the firmware of the M4100-50G from v10.0.2.20 to v10.0.2.26 and check if the same problem will occur.
