Installation

Connect the Switch to Your Network

During initial setup, you must connect the switch to a network that you can

access with a local WiFi connection to use the Insight mobile app, or to the

Internet to use the Insight Cloud Portal.

For Gigabit connections, use Category 5e (Cat 5e) or higher-rated Ethernet

cables terminated with RJ-45 connectors.

To use an SFP port, you must insert a 1G SFP transceiver module, which is

available from NETGEAR.

To use an SFP+ port, you must insert either a 10G SFP+ or 1G SFP

transceiver module, which is available from NETGEAR.

¾ To connect the switch:

1. Connect devices to the network ports on the switch.

2. Connect the switch to a network.

3. Power on the switch and wait for two or three minutes.

The Power LED lights green, indicating that switch completed its

startup process and is available on the network.

The switch receives an IP address from a DHCP server (or a router that

functions as a DHCP server) in your network. If your network does not

include a DHCP server, the switch uses 192.168.0.239 as its default IP

address.

4. To check the port connections from the switch to the powered-on

devices that you connected, do the following:

• Make sure that the Ethernet cables are plugged in correctly.

• Check the le LED for each port on the switch.

The le port LED lights solid green to indicate a valid connection

to a powered-on device and blinks green to indicate trac on this

port.

Access the Switch for Conﬁguration

The NETGEAR Insight app lets you use your mobile device to discover,

conﬁgure, manage, and monitor your switch. You can use this app to access the

switch with a local WiFi connection or you can log in to the Insight Cloud Portal.

The Cloud Portal lets you conﬁgure, manage, and monitor the switch from your

PC, Mac, or tablet for a larger-screen experience.

Local WiFi access. When you use the Insight mobile app for initial

conﬁguration, the switch must be connected to a WiFi access point (because

the switch does not provide WiFi capacity). Connect your mobile device to that

access point’s WiFi network.

Cloud access from a mobile device. Aer initial conﬁguration, as long as your

switch is on a network with an Internet connection, you can access the switch

through the cloud using the Insight mobile app.

Insight Cloud Portal. The Insight Cloud Portal is available for Insight Premium

subscribers to setup, manage, and monitor their Insight devices. A seven-day

free trial of Insight Premium and the Insight Cloud Portal are included with each

24-port or larger Insight Smart Cloud Switch.
