  • Page 14: Switch Management Interface

    Switch Management Interface Your NETGEAR GS700TP Gigabit PoE Smart Switch contains an embedded web server and management software for managing and monitoring switch functions. This switch operates as a simple switch without using the management software. The management software enables you to configure more advanced features, and consequently improve switch efficiency as well as overall network performance.

  • Page 19: Web Access

    1. On your PC, access the MS Windows operating system TCP/IP Properties. 2. Set IP address and subnet mask appropriately. The subnet mask value is identical to that set in the switch. The PC IP address must be different from that of the switch but lie in the same subnet.

  • Page 20: Additional Utilities

    You must work from the same network segment that contains the switch (i.e., the subnet mask values of switch and PC host must be the same) and you must point your browser using the switch IP address. If you used the SmartWizard Discovery utility to set up IP address and subnet mask, either with or without DHCP server, use that IP address in your browser window.
