CHAPTER 3: Web Management Access 
Your NETGEAR Smart Switch series provides a built-in browser interface that lets you configure and 
manage it remotely using a standard Web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape 
Navigator. This interface also allows for system monitoring of the switch. The help page will cover many of 
the basic functions and features of the switch and its web interface.  
Web Management requires either Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later or Netscape Navigator 6.0 or 
later.  
Note: Only one user can be logged in at any time.
