Step 6: Switching Management Through a Web Browser or
Utility Program (Initial Configuration)
Your NETGEAR GS108T Gigabit Smart Switch has embedded management software for viewing,
changing, and monitoring its activity and configuration. You need not use this management
software for it to function as a simple switch. However, the management software enables you to
set up advanced features such as VLANs and Trunking and also enables you to configure the
switch for improved efficiency and performance. As a result, you can improve the overall
performance of your network.
After you power-up the switch for the first time, you can configure it using a Web browser or a
utility program called Smartwizard Discovery. For more information about managing the switch,
see the User Manual on the Smart Switch Resource CD.
