Model: ES205GP  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.1

Unfortunatley not all Omada switches report the client IP addresses to the controller (see screenshot). According to TP-Link support, this is correct, as easy manages switches do not report the client IP config to the controller. The request would be that they also report the clients IP config, so anyone can see the client IP address in the controller portal.

Each Omada carton states: Business solution. And this solution is not even able to show client IP addresses, that are provided by the Omada gateway (DHCP). Sorry, but that is not business. This is a minimum information that should be accessible.

Dear TP-Link, It's a shame that this function is missing. I agree to Cepheus0815, that displaying the IP is a basic information, especially in a business device, even if it is the Easy Managed Class. The device is relatively new on the market, but I still hope that there will be a few more votes for this and TP-Link will improve it. Greatings

Dear Tp-Link, showing the IP address is a basic functionality. I'm holding off on buying additional switches until you fix this.

It's not just the IPs, it's about to deliver Omada when a product is been sold under this flag. SA real surprise to experience that this "easy managed switch" is not fully intergrated into the Omada universe. Will it be some day? When?

I have bought 2 205G's and 1 205GP to expand a network. Since I have bought them and installed them on a network, I have had various failures on the network. For example, I had a SG2008P router loosing network connectivity and keep trying to adopt. I allocated all my switches and AP's static IP's. I was scratching my head with this one until I realised that the 205G and 205GP wasn't allocating IP's to it's ports. I am not sure why this was happening , but when I took them back out of the network, everything settled down again. So for now, I am using an old unmanaged switch to keep the network up.

Very frustrating and I wouldn't have bought if I knew this issue beforehand. @Cepheus0815
