Management options
The switch provides management options that let you discover the switch on the network
and configure, monitor, and control the switch:
•
Local browser user interface (UI). By default, the management mode of the switch
is set to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface, which lets you access the local
browser UI. In this mode, you can change all settings of the switch.
For more information about the local browser UI, see the user manual, which you
can download from netgear.com/support/download/.
Note: If you plan to use the NETGEAR Insight app or Insight Cloud portal to manage
the switch, we recommend that you do not use the local browser UI to change settings
that are Insight manageable because they would not be synchronized with Insight
or to the network location and other devices to which you assigned the switch.
•
NETGEAR Insight app and Insight Cloud portal. If you set the management mode
of the switch to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal, you can use
the following applications to manage the switch remotely:
- NETGEAR Insight app. With the NETGEAR Insight app, you can discover the
switch on the network and add the switch to the NETGEAR Insight app so that
you can set up the switch in the network and manage and monitor the switch
remotely from your smartphone or tablet. You can choose from four methods to
add the switch to the NETGEAR Insight app: You can scan your network for the
switch, scan the QR code or the barcode of the switch, or add the serial number
of the switch.
- Insight Cloud portal. As an Insight Premium or Insight Pro subscriber, you can
use the NETGEAR Insight Cloud portal to set up the switch in the network, perform
advanced remote setup, configuration, and management, monitor the switch,
analyze the switch and network usage, and, if necessary, troubleshoot the switch
and the network.

By default, the management mode is set to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface
(which is the same as the local browser 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 app or the Insight Cloud portal.
However, if you added the switch to a network on the Insight app or Insight portal
