Two network the same Netgear switch
-
Hi There
I have Netgear 48-Port Gb PoE_Smart Managed Pro Switch with 4 SPT Ports. Model: GS752TPv2. Is it possible configure two network the same switch? Let say 10.x network for private for engineering and 172.x network for corporate. How can i configure them? Could you help me out please? I am tired of fixing loop
Thank you -
I think you may be better off setting up Vlans in order to separate your traffic. Vlans will add a tag onto the traffic and you can then configure rules how each vlan can interact with the others. Usually this is used to segment your traffic to keep applications/devices from communicating together. A great example would be to keep your IoT devices from the rest of your network.
I found this Netgear documentation on how to setup Vlans:

A little more info on Vlans themselves too:

Hope this helps!
