Step 7: Managing The Switch Using A Web Browser Or The Pc Utility - NETGEAR FS752TP Hardware Installation Manual

Step 7: Managing the Switch using a Web Browser or the
PC Utility
The FS752TP contains software for viewing, changing, and monitoring the way it works. This
management software is not required for the switch to work. The ports can be used without
using the management software. However, the management software enables the setup of
VLAN and trunking features and also improves the efficiency of the switch, which results in
the improvement of its overall performance as well as the performance of the network.
After powering up the switch for the first time, the Smart Switch can be configured using a
Web browser or a program called Smart Control Center. For more information about
managing the switch, see the FS752TP Software Administration Manual on the Smart Switch
Resource CD.
Note: The switch is configured with a default IP address of
192.168.0.239 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
