Windows-based, or Linux-based computer.
To install the NETGEAR Switch Discovery Tool, discover the switch in your
network, access the switch, and discover the switch IP address:

https://www.netgear.com/support/product/netgear-switch-discovery-tool.aspx
Download the Mac, Windows, or Linux version.
2. Temporarily disable the firewall, Internet security, antivirus programs, or all of
these on the computer that you use to configure the switch.
3. Unzip the NSDT files, and click or double-click the executable file (for

You might see the tool icon appear on your Mac dock, Windows desktop, or
Linux desktop.

Mount the switch on a wall
We recommend that you use the wall-mount screws that are included.
1. Locate the two mounting holes on the bottom panel of the switch.
2. Mark and drill two mounting holes in the wall where you want to mount the
switch.
The two mounting holes must be 3.15 in. (80 mm) apart, center-to-center.
3. Insert the supplied anchors into the wall and tighten the screws with a No. 2
Phillips screwdriver.
Leave about 0.125 in. (4 mm) of each screw protruding from the wall so that
you can insert the screws into the holes on the bottom panel.
Note: The screws are 0.25 in. (6.5 mm) in diameter, 0.63 in. (16 mm) in length.
