If the Power LED does not light, check to see that the power cord is plugged in correctly and that the
power source is good.
Step 9: Manage the Switch
Using the NETGEAR Insight app and Insight Cloud portal, you can discover the switch on the network and
add the switch to the Insight app and Insight Cloud portal so that you can perform setup, remote management,
and monitoring tasks from your smartphone, tablet, or computer.
The switch is a plug-and-play device that starts switching as soon as you plug it into power and your network.
You can use the switch without creating an Insight-managed topology (using the Insight app or Insight Cloud
portal), but in that situation you cannot remotely monitor, manage, and troubleshoot the switch, nor receive
push notifications from the switch, and the switch operates in standalone mode only, like a traditional
NETGEAR Smart Managed Pro Switch.
Using the Insight app and Insight Cloud portal, as well as network-based policies and zero-touch deployment
and configuration, you can configure and manage the switch, along with Insight-managed WiFi access points
and NAS devices, at the network level. Also, using the Insight app or Insight Cloud portal, you can set up
features such as VLANs and trunking and improve the efficiency of the switch, which results in the
improvement of its overall performance as well as the performance of the network.
After you power on the switch for the first time, you can configure the switch using the Insight app or Insight
Cloud portal.
For more information about Insight, visit netgear.com/insight and see the NETGEAR knowledge base articles
at netgear.com/support.
For information about managing the switch without the benefits of the Insight app and Insight Cloud portal,
see the user manual, which you can download from downloadcenter.netgear.com.
The switch’s default IP address is 192.168.0.239 and its default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
