Setting up easy smart switch
Hello Guys
I just bought this switch mainly to be used with 12 Poe Cameras
https://www.tp-link.com/uk/business-networking/easy-smart-switch/tl-sg1218mpe/
I will be using it with a tplink router which has the following details
Internet
IP Address:
192.168.100.6
Lan
IP: 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
DHCP Server:
Enabled
IP Address Pool:
192.168.0.2-192.168.0.40
I know I can just leave the DHCP enable on the switch and everything takes care of itself
1) I would like to know if I disable DHCP and manually change the values, what are the correct values for IP, Subnet and Default gateway ? Should I use an IP outside my DHCP range to make it static ? At the moment when DHCP is enable the default gateway is 0.0.0.0 and I do have internet fine after checking with a laptop plugged in port 18, port 17 from router to switch
2) Odd question, can this switch be made remotely available online via DDNS like no-ip, like some tplink router you can set up a DDNS and acccess remotely.
3) I do not seen to find any new firmware for this hardware version of 4.20. Any idea ?
Thanks
