No I didn't... I never realized that LACP/Trunking would be anything but round-robin on a packet basis. It is actually a lot less useful than I realized!

Does anyone have advice for getting into the webUI of the 2.5G 4+2 port switch (yes, the managed one)?
LG-SWTG124AS is written on the label underneath and ZX-SWTG124AS comes up as the title of the login page.
admin/admin, mentioned in this thread and printed on the label underneath it doesn't work. I've also tried the login using hengrui and hash for password without any luck. Any random page typed into the address will redirect back to the login.cgi page.
I didn't have any issues getting to the WebUI of the managed 10 x 10G port switch.
Looks like for whatever reason the WebUI didn't accept user or pass from Firefox. I tied with Chrome and got in. However, with Chrome, the page page at the default address didn't always load, but only did so about 50% of the time. If I kept refreshing the page it would cycle from page not found to working. At least when it worked, it took the user/password.
I just received this switch a couple of weeks ago and it came running firmware 1.9 from January 2024.

I bought three of these Sodola Managed 8 + 1 Switches (SL-SWTGW218AS, Fw. 1.9) and also found that vlan 1 cannot be removed from any port. This results in the management interface being reachable from every vlan. And on top of that some guy on the forum even pointed out that if you enable DHCP, the switch picks itself an IP from a random vlan's DHCP server, what is really crazy.
In my opinion, not being able to remove the management vlan from ports is a real bummer and massive security issue. Has there been any progress on that topic? Otherwise I'm quite happy but exposing management interfaces to guest vlans is a big no no for me.

Interesting. That defintely doesn't work for me. Clicking "Add /Modify" does nothing on all of my switches, when having selected VLAN 1.
However editing other vlans is no problem.
Maybe factory reset and start over? Are you trying to remove vlan from from all ports?Interesting. That defintely doesn't work for me. Clicking "Add /Modify" does nothing on all of my switches, when having selected VLAN 1.

@das1996 Thank you so much for pointing that out. Tried the same in chromium and it worked. Then Firefox again and nothing - just for vlan 1. All other vlans can be edited in both browsers.
What a crazy bug.
I've tried it so many times but on my test machine I only have Firefox. Then I seached the Forum. @Mdk754 must have run into the same browser problem.

Checked that and the test machine has been air gapped from the internet for so long, it still runs Firefox 113.0.2.
So maybe user error. m( Still weird, that every vlan except 1 can be edited using that ancient browser.
I know this is old but I pinged the alibaba seller recently and they sent me a firmware link with 7/10/2024 firmware. I installed it on my second switch no issue. Now it has some sirivision branding and firmware version says v3.0.2. I don't know what's changed but I didn't notice any new settings in the few places I clicked around. I was hoping it would provide POE stats but no such luck.Has anyone tried to update firmware for the Sirivision S25G2109FP?
Here you go. Disclaimer - this is for Sirivision S25G2109F model
Would someone please test, if Flow Control between two of these 8 + 1 Switches connected via DAC in SFP+ ports can actually be enabled?
When I connect two of my Sodola switches (v. 1.9) via 2.5G-Ports with Flow Control setting to "on", the "Actual" column switches to "on" too.
Doing the same via DAC in SFP+ Port 9 (attention: you have to select "Port 9" before applying) shows no effect in the "Actual" columns of both switches.

It should be compatible with most modules since these switches aren't vendor locked. Therefore, it might be better to list transceivers that don't work.
I would be surprised if that Cisco transceiver didn't work.
Nope. Doesn't work for me. Tried different transceivers, DAC, connected to Mellanox, Brocade switch. Flow control never works on the SFP+ port.
Just to be clear, trunking two 2.5gb lines is not the same thing as having a 5gb connection - you still have two 2.5gb lines. Theoretically you can send twice as much data in the same amount of time, but that is assuming the data is perfectly distributed between the two connections, but that is not going to happen in real life. Depending on the traffic, you might see most of it being sent on a single connection.
Think of it this way.... trunking is like adding an additional lane to a road. It doesn't raise the speed limit, it just allows more traffic to flow at the same time.
How about the ip in this image? I flashed it and otp, the switch seems to work, but I can't log in. Unfortunately, the pcb has no ttl reservation
My 8+1 Horaco 118AS managed switch was misbehaving recently. It was switching frames as normal but GUI was becoming slow or unresponsive after a few weeks since reboot.
When I then tried to power cycle the switch, it automatically entered firmware recovery mode and after flashing frmware via recovery interface (http://192.168.1.1), it continued to operate as normal for next few weeks until another same thing happened.
Eventually today the same thing happened but it no longer entered firmware recovery mode. So I connected serial console to find out what's happening. It detects runtime checksum error but continues to boot (rathen than enter recovery mode), displays IP address of 192.168.1.1, netmask, GW and MAC and then effectively hangs on console. I can interrupt boot with 'v' key to enter SPI interface. But it does not react to ESC key to interrupt boot andter frmware recovery mode
I suppose it's all because flash chip is dying (it is FM25Q16A).
I have an exact dump of my firmware (did it for @up-n-atom to put on his Github) and was thinking of buying another 25Q16 chip and reflash it with my previous dump (I own Xgecu programmer) but after having read some posts backwards, it seems not to be so easy because firmware is checking against UID of the flash chip. So if I buy FM25Q16A on Aliexpress, will it work ?
