Configuring the Switch
ProSAFE Web Managed (Plus) switches are Plug-and-Play, so they can be used
without any configuration. You can also configure and manage additional advanced
features of the switch either by using your computer’s web browser or by installing
the ProSAFE Plus Configuration Utility on your Windows-based computer.
Web Browser Access
You can configure a switch when it is connected only to your computer
(o-network), or connected to your computer and your network (on-network).
¾ To use your web browser to configure your switch:
1. If you are configuring the switch o-network, record your computer’s TCP/IP
configuration settings, and then configure the computer with a static IP address
of 192.168.0.210 and with 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.
Note: If you are unsure how to do this, visit www.netgear.com/support and
search for Static IP address on computer.
2. Plug the switch into a power outlet and connect your computer to the switch
using an Ethernet cable.
3. If you are configuring the switch on-network, connect the switch to your
network with another Ethernet cable.
4. Open a web browser and enter the IP address of the switch.
If the switch is o-network or connected to a network with no DHCP server,
use its default IP address, http://192.168.0.239. If the switch is connected
to a network with a DHCP server, use the IP address that the DHCP server
assigned to the switch. If you are unsure how to determine the IP address of
the switch, you can use the ProSAFE Plus Configuration Utility.
5. Enter the password.
The default password is password.
6. Click the Login button.
You can now configure additional options for the switch in the web browser
interface.
7. When you finish configuring an o-network switch, return your computer to
its original TCP/IP settings and connect the switch to your network using an
Ethernet cable.
ProSAFE Plus Configuration Utility Access
The ProSAFE Plus Configuration Utility runs on Windows-based computers. The
utility is on the resource CD that came with the switch. You can also visit www.
netgear.com/support/product/PCU to download the utility.
¾ To install the utility from the resource CD:
1. Insert the resource CD into a computer that is connected to the switch.
2. Click the Install ProSAFE Plus Utility link and follow the prompts to install
the program.
The utility is installed in the program directory of your computer and a
ProSAFE Plus Utility icon is placed on your desktop.
¾ To configure the switch:
1. Double-click the ProSAFE Plus Utility icon.
The configuration home page displays a list of Web Managed (Plus) switches
that it discovers on the local network.
2. Select the switch that you want to configure from the list.
3. When prompted, enter the password.
The default password is password.
4. Use the utility to configure the switch settings.
For a description of Web Managed (Plus) features, see the ProSAFE Plus Switch
Utility User Guide. You can access the user guide through links on the Help tab
of the utility and from the resource CD.
