Introduction
This hardware installation guide is for the NETGEAR 10G/Multi-Gigabit Dual WAN Pro
Router with Insight Cloud Management Model PR60X. In this manual, this model is
referred to as the router, unless we mention otherwise.
The router is designed for small-to-medium sized businesses and provides features
such as WAN redundancy, a basic firewall with the option to set up multiple traffic rules,
IPSec site-to-site VPN, and VLAN capabilities with a DHCP server for each VLAN.
The router provides the following ports:
• One dedicated 1G/2.5G Ethernet WAN port
• Three dedicated 1G/2.5G Ethernet LAN ports
• One dedicated 1G/10G SFP+ fiber LAN port
• One 1G/2.5G/5G/10G multi-gigabit port that you can use as a LAN port or configure
as a second WAN port.
You can place the router on a desktop or in a rack. The system LEDs are on both the
front and back panels. The ports, port LEDs, and AC power receptacle are on the back
panel.
This hardware installation guide complements the installation guide that came with your
