Access a Switch That Is Connected to a Network

To use your web browser to configure a switch that is connected to a network:
1. Cable the switch to a network with a router or DHCP server that manages IP addresses.
2. Power on the switch.
The DHCP server assigns the switch an IP address.
3. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
4. Determine the IP address of the switch.
DHCP is enabled on the switch by default. Use the IP address that the DHCP server assigned to the
switch. If you are unsure how to determine the IP address of the switch, you can use the ProSAFE®
Plus Utility or an IP scanner utility.
5. Open a web browser, and enter the IP address of the switch.
6. When prompted, enter the password.
The default password is password.
7. Click the Login button.
You can now configure additional options for the switch in the web management interface.

Access the Switch Using the NETGEAR Insight App

The switch supports the NETGEAR Insight app, which you can install on a mobile device.
Using the NETGEAR Insight app, you can discover the switch on the network, register it, and add the switch
to the NETGEAR Insight app. Once the switch is added to the NETGEAR Insight app, you can configure
basic management settings, locally monitor the switch status, and launch the web management interface.
You can choose from three methods to add the switch to the NETGEAR Insight app. All three methods
require that the smartphone on which the NETGEAR Insight app is installed is connected to the same
network as the switch. Use one of the following methods:
• Add the switch from the Day Zero discovery page.
• Add the switch from the Network page.
• Add the switch from the Device List page.
