assign a static IP address to your switch.
If you prefer, you can assign the switch a static IP address even if your network does include
a DHCP server.
As an offline option, if you connect your computer directly to the switch using an Ethernet
cable (that is, offline), you can also use the SCC to assign a static IP address to your switch.
After you do so, you can connect your switch to the network.

About changing the management mode
The following applies to changing the management mode:
•Changing to the NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal mode.
-The first time that you enable this mode, the switch is reset to its factory default
settings so that you can create the switch configuration and network topology using
the Insight app or the Insight Cloud portal.
-If you added the switch to a network on the Insight app or Insight cloud portal before,
all Insight-manageable device settings are returned to the last configuration saved on

Configure the CPU thresholds
The CPU Utilization Threshold notification feature allows you to configure thresholds that,
when exceeded, trigger a notification. The notification occurs through SNMP trap and syslog
messages.
To configure the CPU thresholds:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

86400 seconds in multiples of 5 seconds.
•Falling Threshold

this level for a configured period of time.
The falling utilization threshold must be equal to or less than the rising threshold
value. The falling utilization threshold notification is sent only if a rising threshold
notification was sent previously. Configuring the falling utilization threshold and time
period is optional. If the Falling CPU utilization settings are not configured, the switch

through any port.
When you change the management VLAN, an IP connection can be made only through a
port that is part of the management VLAN. Also, the port VLAN ID (PVID) of the port to be
connected in that management VLAN must be the same as the management VLAN ID.
Note: Make sure that the VLAN that must be the management VLAN exists. Also
make sure that the PVID of at least one port in the VLAN is the same as
the management VLAN ID. For information about creating VLANs and
configuring the PVID for a port, see Configure VLANs on page 136.
The following requirements apply to the management VLAN:
•Only one management VLAN can be active at a time.
•When a new management VLAN is configured, connectivity through the existing

SNTP assures accurate network device clock time synchronization up to the millisecond.
Time synchronization is performed by a network SNTP server. The switch operates only as
an SNTP client and cannot provide time services to other systems.
Time sources are established by strata. Strata define the accuracy of the reference clock.
The higher the stratum (where zero is the highest), the more accurate the clock. The device
receives time from Stratum 1 and above since it is itself a Stratum 2 device.
The following is an example of strata:
•Stratum 0.
•Stratum 1.
time servers provide primary network time standards.
Stratum 2. The time source is distanced from the Stratum 1 server over a network path.
•
For example, a Stratum 2 server receives the time over a network link, through NTP

A real-time clock is used as the time source, for example, a GPS system.
A server that is directly linked to a Stratum 0 time source is used. Stratum 1

Information received from SNTP servers is evaluated based on the time level and server
type.
SNTP time definitions are assessed and determined by the following time levels:
•T1. Time that the original request was sent by the client.
•T2. Time that the original request was received by the server.
•T
3. Time that the server sent a reply.
•T
4. Time that the client received the server's reply.
The device can poll unicast server types for the server time.
Polling for unicast information is used for polling a server for which the IP address is known.
SNTP servers that were configured on the device are the only ones that are polled for
synchronization information. T1 through
T4 are used to determine server time. This is the
preferred method for synchronizing device time because it is the most secure method. If this

By default, this mode is disabled for the port. When a port link is down, the underlying
physical layer goes down for a short period and then checks for port link pulses again so
that auto-negotiation remains possible. In this way, the switch saves power when no link
partner is present for the port.

10. From the Power Mode menu, select the PoE mode that the port must function in:
•802.3af. The port is powered in and limited to the IEEE 802.3af mode.
A PD that
requires IEEE 802.3at does not receive power if the port functions in IEEE 802.3af
mode.
•Legacy. The port is powered using high-inrush current, which is used by legacy PDs
that require more than 15W to power up.
•
Pre-802.3at. The port is initially powered in the IEEE 802.3af mode and, before
75 msec pass, is switched to the high power IEEE 802.3at mode. Select this mode if
the PD does not perform Layer 2 classification or if the switch performs
2-event Layer 1 classification.
•
802.3at. The port is powered in the IEEE 802.3at mode and is backward compatible
with IEEE 802.3af.
The 802.3at mode is the default mode. In this mode, if the switch
detects that the attached PD requests more power than IEEE 802.3af but is not an
IEEE 802.3at Class 4 device, the PD does not receive power from the switch.
11. From the Power Limit Type menu, select how the port controls the maximum power that it
can deliver:
•
None.
The port draws up to Class 0 maximum power in low power mode and up to
Class 4 maximum power in high power mode.
•
Class. The port power limit is equal to the class of the attached PD.
•
User. The port power limit is equal to the value that is specified in the Power Limit
(mW)
field. This is the default setting.
Note: If a PD does not report its class correctly, use of these options can
preserve additional PoE power by preventing the switch from
delivering more power than the PD requires. However, depending on
which option you select, a PD that does not report its class correctly
might not power up at all.

Together, the management station IP address and the management station IP mask
denote a range of IP addresses from which SNMP clients can use that community to

For example, if the management station IP address and management station IP mask
settings are 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, any client with an IP address in the range from
192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.255 (inclusive) is allowed access. To allow access from only

can view this information to identify system topology and detect bad configurations on the
LAN.
LLDP is a one-way protocol without any request/response sequences. Information is
advertised by stations implementing the transmit function, and is received and processed by
stations implementing the receive function. The transmit and receive functions can be
enabled or disabled separately per port. By default, both transmit and receive are disabled on
all ports.
