Measured behaviour

No PoE at all. This SKU has no PSE silicon, so get_poe() and every PoE write are refused — identically on SNMP, HTTP and the CLI, instead of SNMP handing back an empty list from an empty pethPsePortTable while the other two raise. That consistency is deliberate; see Support.

VLAN membership is written through the vendor switchport table, not Q-BRIDGE. The standard static PortList columns here are read-only mirrors that answer commitFailed even when written with byte-identical content, and dot1qVlanStaticUntaggedPorts is worse than read-only: a SET returns noError and is then silently discarded. The registry records this as snmp_vlan_write = fastpath_switchport; SNMP has the full derivation.

The port count is nominal. port_count is 28 because that value also sizes the VLAN and port bitmaps, but the device reports 24 physical ports. get_stats() over the CLI iterates the ports the switch itself reports rather than trusting the registry — which is what stopped it inventing counters for four ports that do not exist.

Protocols

• SNMP — the default backend, vendor subtree 4526.10.

• HTTP web UI — the CHEETAH_V1 scheme: every page under /v1/, with a Referer header required as CSRF protection.

• FASTPATH CLI — SSH or telnet; also the only route for upload_certificate_scp(), since this firmware takes a certificate by copy scp:// rather than an HTTP form.
