NETGEAR 24-Port Gigabit Smart Managed Pro Switch with PoE+ and 2 SFP Ports Model GS724TPv2

Interface Naming Conventions

The switch supports physical and logical interfaces. Interfaces are identified by their type and
the interface number. The physical ports are Gigabit interfaces and are numbered on the
front panel. You configure the logical interfaces by using the software.
The following table describes the naming convention for all interfaces available on the switch.

Configure Interface Settings

For some features that allow you to configure interface settings, you can apply the same
settings simultaneously to any of the following:
• A single port
• Multiple ports
• All ports
• A single LAG
• Multiple LAGs
• All LAGs
• Multiple ports and LAGs
• All ports and LAGs
Many of the pages that allow you to configure or view interface settings include links to
display all ports, all LAGs, or all ports and LAGs on the page.
Description
The physical ports are 1 Gigabit
Ethernet interfaces and are
numbered sequentially starting
from 1.
LAG interfaces are logical
interfaces that are used only for
bridging functions.
This is the internal switch interface
responsible for the switch base
MAC address. This interface is not
configurable and is always listed in
the MAC Address Table.
