Lets see how to switch or edit the switch configurations for ION 1200-S and ION 3200 devices in
Prisma SD-WAN
netsec.
The integrated Layer 2 switch ports enable you to connect multiple devices directly on the L2 LAN or add downstream switches or Wireless Access Points (WAP). L2 LAN switch ports is supported on ION 3200 on ports 5 -10. When the ION 3200 device is running in L2 mode, it will function as ION 1200-S, and when the ION 3200 is running in L3 mode, it will serve as the current ION 3200 device.

    The mode change operation is allowed when the device is in a
