make unmanaged switch, become managed
switch

Hello, I have an unmanaged 8 port switch,
please give me advice on how to make it manageable,
what is needed is to make the switch into PoE, and create an on/off function on each port, and monitor the port in a connected or unconnected condition

thank’s

AFAIK you need to change the hardware to change a switch from unmanaged to managed, but in any case this has nothing to do with Fritzing and you would be better to ask in a networking forum of some kind.

Converting an unmanaged switch into a managed one isn’t feasible through software alone. Managed switches involve specific hardware features like SNMP support and port monitoring, which can’t be retrofitted into unmanaged models. However, you can enhance an unmanaged switch’s functionality with external devices or by using more advanced network configurations.
