Access the Switch
Smart Managed Plus switches are plug-and-play, so they can be used without any
conguration. You can also congure and manage additional advanced features
of the switch either by using your computer’s web browser or by installing the
ProSAFE Plus Conguration Utility on your Windows-based computer.
Web Browser Access
You can congure a switch when it is connected only to your computer
(off-network), or connected to your computer and your network (on-network).
To use your web browser to congure your switch:
1. If you are conguring the switch off-network, record your computer’s
TCP/IP conguration settings, and then congure the computer with a static
IP address of 192.168.0.210 and with 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.
If you are unsure how to do this, visit netgear.com/support and search for
Static IP address on computer.
2. Open a web browser and enter the IP address of the switch.
If the switch is off-network or connected to a network with no DHCP server
(such as a router), use the switch’s default IP address, http://192.168.0.239. If
the switch is connected to a network with a DHCP server, use the IP address
that the DHCP server assigned to the switch.
If you are unsure how to determine the IP address of the switch, you can use
the NETGEAR Insight mobile app, ProSAFE Plus Utility, or NETGEAR Switch
Discovery Tool.
3. Enter the password.
The default password is password.
4. Click the Login button.
You can now congure additional options for the switch in the local browser
interface.
5. When you nish conguring an off-network switch, return your computer to
its original TCP/IP settings and connect the switch to your network using an
Ethernet cable.
