Interface Naming Convention - NETGEAR GS752TP Software Administration Manual

GS752TP, GS728TP, and GS728TPP Gigabit Smart Switches

Interface Naming Convention

The switch supports physical and logical interfaces. Interfaces are identified by their type and
the interface number. The switches support the following ports:
• GS752TP. Ports 1–48 are 10/100/1000M AutoSensing Gigabit ports, and ports 49–52 are
100/1000M SFP ports. The first 8 ports are PoE+ providing 30W of DC power, and the
remaining copper ports are PoE (Power over Environment) providing 15.4W of DC power.
• GS728TP. Ports 1–24 are 10/100/1000M AutoSensing Gigabit ports, and ports 25–28 are
100/1000M SFP ports. The first 8 ports are PoE+ providing 30W of DC power, and the
remaining copper ports are PoE (Power over Environment) providing 15.4W of DC power.
• GS728TPP. Ports 1–24 are 10/100/1000M AutoSensing Gigabit ports, and ports 25–28
are 100/1000M SFP ports. All 24 copper ports are PoE+ providing 30W of DC power. This
model includes an external power supply to support the increased power requirements.
The number of the port is identified on the front panel. You can configure the logical
interfaces by using the software. The following table describes the naming convention for all
interfaces available on the switch.

Description
The physical ports include Gigabit ports 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.
