THE HUB

What it is

The Luxul AMS-1208P is a 12-port managed gigabit switch with eight PoE+ ports, two additional copper ports and two SFP uplinks, aimed at residential and light commercial AV installations. It is managed through a web interface on port 80 and a Microsemi WebStaX command line reachable over Telnet and SSH, all three of which require a login.

Specs

Ports: 12 - 8 PoE+ RJ45, 2 RJ45, 2 SFP

PoE: IEEE 802.3af/at on ports 1-8

Uplinks: 2 SFP

Switching Capacity

Management: Web UI on port 80, Telnet on 23, SSH on 22

Setup

First Use: The switch ships requiring a login on every management transport. Set the address and credentials in the web UI on port 80, then add the connection in CTRLbot by IP and port. Pressing Connect asks for the username and password and keeps them in encrypted storage.

VLANs: Configured in the switch's own web UI, which CTRLbot opens one tap from the address on the Connect screen. VLAN configuration needs config mode and multi-line command sequences, which this driver deliberately does not attempt.

PoE: IEEE 802.3af/at on ports 1-8

Control: Read-only. Port up/down, PoE on/off and saving configuration all need `configure terminal` and a nested interface context, which is three lines where the command table models one. They are recorded in Roadmap Future Bucket Feature 9 as a catalogue-wide design question.

Support

Power Cycle: Disconnect power for ten seconds.

Factory Reset: Refer to the Luxul AMS-1208P user guide.
