Instant On - Wired

  • 1.  Cloud Management Port

    Posted 15 days ago

    Hi all.

    New to the community but have worked in IT for over 25 years as a support technician so know my way around. Networking isn't my strongest area but I get by.

    I have installed at my home a 1930 Instant On switch and 3 AP's. I have used Port 1 on the switch to connect to my ISP router and all is working well. When looking at the switch ports, port 6 which has a TV set top box connected to it (SKY Q for those int he UK) has the cloud icon on it.

    2 questions really:

    1 - how do I set it so that port 1 which is connected to my router is the cloud uplink?

    2 - does it matter which port is used?

    The cloud simply indicates where the switch thinks it is getting out to the internet. I have had this happen, where a simple reboot of the switch when the uplink is in its proper place, will solve that.
