Sorry guys i need help i have no idea about networking so i need help updating my switch i have the netgear MS510TXPP why is it so complicated on my other switches i just go to system and it updates also how do i get the fiber port to work and i want to have my computer running on 2.5gb lan or the 10gb please help i have 2.5 gb internet so i would like to at lest get that please
"The switch maintains two versions of the software (firmware) in permanent storage. One image is the active image, and the second image is the backup image. The active image is loaded during subsequent switch restarts. This feature reduces switch down time when you are upgrading or downgrading the switch software."
p.320 Change the Image That Loads During the Boot Process ...up to p.322
Very similar to a copper Ethernet connection plugging an Ethernet RJ45 network cable to the ports, establish a connection between the SFP/SFP+ ports, by adding SFP/SFP+ modules for allowing the physical connection of the matching fiber. This could be also some Fiber DAC cable if both SFP sides support the same speed.
and i want to have my computer running on 2.5gb lan or the 10gb please help i have 2.5 gb internet so i would like to at lest
Does your router (e.g. from your ISP) has a 2.5G, a MultiGig 2.5/5G/10G port? If yes, Establish a connection from the nice MS510TXPP to this port. Using a copper Ethernet cable (four pairs, ideally CAT5E or better), or DAC if both SFP support the same speed.
Needless to say you need either multiple computer on the network to take an advantage of the additional speed, or at least one computer with a network adapters supporting that speed.
No rocket science, plain networking again, too. Just new technologies you need to become familiar again, too.
