Hi @MikeAnt
Thanks for posting in our business forum.

So what does Omada mean in your product names now if you're putting that on products that can't actually be centrally managed?
Now that you've made this change, how do I identify the products that can be managed with my Omada controller?
MikeAnt
This is shown below. You are asking a question that has been answered already. You can identify in the past, now and future. The principle stays the same and follows the same logic.
In the past, even before this name change to include the DS models, previously known as TL-SG1XXX, they have this tradition already. TL-SG this naming will gradually fade. T
There is no need to argue or blame the Omada brand name. The Omada is gonna be the term to represent the TP-Link business networking product line which we used to call SMB. Shifting from the TL- thing to the Omada SG- and DS- thing.
You can also learn about the OSI mode. Most vendors on the market are using the 1 2 3 to differentiate their products and levels. So do we. Picking up the models should not be a hard thing. The model number for every vendor has a format and a logic to follow.
- OSI layer 1 is basically all unmanaged switches. Every vendor will mark it out if it is unmanaged.
- L2+ should get much more features than a L2 switch.
