Configuring the Switch

be used without any configuration. You can also configure and manage
additional advanced features of the switch by either using your computer’s
web browser or by installing the ProSAFE Plus Utility on your Windows-
based PC.
Web Browser Access

1. Record your computer’s TCP/IP configuration settings, and then
configure the computer with a static IP address of 192.168.0.210 and

Note: If you are unsure how to do this, visit http://kb.netgear.com and
search for Static IP address on computer.

switch using an Ethernet cable.
