Changing the management mode
By default, the management mode is set to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface
(which is the same as the device UI). Note the following about changing the management
mode:
• Changing to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal mode: The
first time that you change to this mode, the switch is set to factory default settings
so that you can manage the switch using the Insight Cloud Portal or the Insight app.
However, if you added the switch to a network on the Insight Cloud Portal or Insight
app before, all Insight-manageable device settings revert to the configuration in the
Insight cloud, including the switch password (that is, the password is reset to the
Insight network password).
Note: If you use the NETGEAR Insight Cloud Portal or Insight app, you can
temporarily change the management mode of the switch back to Directly Connect
to Web Browser Interface and access the device UI for settings that are not
Insight-manageable. You might want to do this for tasks such as integrating with an
existing network of devices that are not managed through Insight, and for debugging
purposes. When you are done, you can change the management mode back to
NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal.
• Changing back to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface mode: The
NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal management mode is disabled
and the current Insight-manageable device settings are saved to the Insight cloud.
Any changes that you make using the Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface
management mode are not saved to the cloud server.
