Step 9: Manage The Switch - NETGEAR GS724TPv2 Hardware Installation Manual

24-Port Gigabit (Hi-Power) PoE+ Ethernet Smart Managed Pro Switch with 2 SFP Ports

Step 9: Manage the switch

The switch is a plug-and-play device that starts switching as soon as you plug it into
power and your network.
After you complete the initial log-in procedure, you can configure the switch using the
local browser interface. After you complete the initial log-in procedure, you can also
change the management mode so that you configure the switch using the Insight app,
or if you are an Insight Premium or Insight Pro subscriber, the Insight Cloud portal. For
more information, see Management options on page 6.
For more information about managing the switch using the local browser interface,
including information about tools to discover the switch IP address in your network, see
the user manual, which you can download from netgear.com/support/download/.
For more information about NETGEAR Insight, visit netgear.com/insight and see the
NETGEAR knowledge base articles at netgear.com/support.
For very basic setup and management, you can use the Smart Control Center (SCC)
utility (which requires a Windows-based computer). For information about the SCC
utility, see netgear.com/support/product/SCC.
Note: By default, the DHCP client of the switch is enabled. If the switch cannot get an
IP address from a DHCP server, the switch's default IP address is 192.168.0.239 and the
default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
