Ok, I set it to disable, but clicking the Save button is the "wrong" thing to do - you have to click the Apply button, which you can only find by scrolling way down to the bottom. That did the trick. What a very lousy UI!
I'm very new to these switches. Just bought a pair of PowerConnect 8132 switches on Firmware 5.1.0.1, and I'm trying to disable some ports on them through the web UI. There's a setting called "Admin Status," which I can set to Disable, but after I save the change and refresh, it goes right back to Enable. I can't see anything else that looks like it would disable a port. Help!
How to disable a port?
