XS716T command line console and VLAN trunking?

[ger24]

Hi all,

I got a PROSAFE XS716T switch on my hand and would like to know whether this switch provides command line interface(just like Cisco devices' command console) or not.

additionally, I can't find where to configure VLAN trunking on ports on the webpage, it seemed that only the VLAN IDs can be set to ports. is it possible to set VLAN trunking?

thanks in advance!!~~

Only Netgear's Managed Switch model lines are supporting a CLI, the Smart Managed Pro models are Web managed only.

Trunks/LAGs are built from interfaces/links - just like everywhere in the industry - the 802.1Q VLAN assignments are configured on the LAG level.

hey, thanks for helping!!!

after reading this page https://kb.netgear.com/31026/How-to-configure-a-VLAN-on-a-NETGEAR-managed-switch I discovered that marking ports as "T" indicating they are VLAN trunking.

it's different from my experience on configuring network switches. (mine experiences are based on other brands' device)
