8-port Ultra60 PoE++ Multi-Gigabit (2.5G) Ethernet Smart Switch Hardware Installation Guide
Management options
The switch provides the following management options that let you discover the switch
on the network and configure, monitor, and control the switch:
• NETGEAR Insight app and Insight Cloud Portal: If you set the management mode
of the switch to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal, you can use
the following applications to manage the switch remotely:
- Insight Cloud Portal: As an Insight Premium or Insight Pro subscriber, you can
use the NETGEAR Insight Cloud Portal to set up the switch in the network; perform
remote setup; configure, manage, and monitor the switch; analyze the switch
and network usage; and, if necessary, troubleshoot the switch and the network.
- NETGEAR Insight app: With the Insight app, you can discover the switch on the
network and add it to a network location. You can then set up the switch in the
network, and manage and monitor the switch remotely from your tablet or
smartphone. You can choose from four methods to add the switch to the Insight
app: You can scan your network for the switch, scan the QR code of the switch,
scan the barcode of the switch, or add the serial number of the switch.
For more information about NETGEAR Insight, visit netgear.com/insight. The Insight
Cloud Portal and Insight app have embedded help and are documented in multiple
knowledge base articles that you can access by visiting netgear.com/support.
• Smart Switch CLI: The Smart Switch command-line interface (CLI) is a text-based
way to manage and monitor the switch. You can access the CLI by using a direct
serial connection, or by using a remote logical connection with telnet or SSH.
For more information about the Smart Switch CLI, see the Lite CLI Reference Manual,
which you can download by visiting netgear.com/support/download.
• Device user interface (UI): By default, the management mode of the switch is set
to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface, which lets you access the device UI.
In this mode, you can change all settings of the switch.
For more information about the device UI, see the user manual, which you can
download by visiting netgear.com/support/download.
Note: If you plan to use the NETGEAR Insight Cloud Portal or Insight app to manage
the switch, we recommend that you do not use the device UI to change settings that
are Insight manageable because they would not be synchronized with Insight or to
the network location and other devices to which you assigned the switch. We
recommend that use the Insight Cloud Portal or Insight app to change Insight
manageable settings.
