About on-network and off-network access

You can access the switch either on-network or off-network:
On-network and connected to the Internet. When you use the device UI, for easiest access, we recommend that you cable the switch to a network that is connected to the Internet and that includes a router or DHCP server that assigns IP addresses, power on
switch, and

For more information, see on page 19).
Off-network and not connected to the Internet. You can also configure the switch connected directly only to the computer that you are using to c switch is not connected to the network and the Internet. We refer to this setup as off-network or offline. If your network does not include a DHCP server (or a router that functions as a DHCP server), you must access the switch off-network.
For more information, see Internet on page 27.
Note: We recommend that you register the switch to activate your warranty.

Access the switch on-network and connected to the Internet

The DHCP client on the switch is enabled by default, allowing a DHCP server or router on the network to assign an IP address to the switch.
If the switch is on-network, connected to a DHCP server, and connected to the Internet, you can use a Windows-based computer to access the device UI of the switch and register the switch with NETGEAR. For more information, see

To use a Windows-based computer to determine the switch IP address and access the switch on-network and connected to the Internet:
1. Cable the switch to a network with a router or DHCP server that manages IP addresses.
2. Power on the switch.
The DHCP server assigns the switch an IP address.

Use the NETGEAR Insight mobile app to discover the IP address of the switch

If the switch is connected to a WiFi router or access point, and the switch is connected to the Internet, the NETGEAR Insight mobile app lets you discover the switch in your network.
If you do not use the NETGEAR Insight app to claim the switch by adding it to an Insight network location, the switch is not registered and your warranty is not activated.
Using the NETGEAR Insight app to discover the IP address of the switch in your network is not the same as managing the switch with the Insight app or the Insight Cloud Portal.
Note: The default management mode of the switch is the device UI. If you
want to use the Insight app or the Insight Cloud Portal to manage the switch, you first must change the management mode (see
the management mode to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal on page 36). After you do so, you can manage
the switch with Insight and add the switch to an Insight network location.

Discover the switch in a network with a DHCP server using the Smart Control Center

This section describes how to set up your switch in a network that includes a DHCP server. The DHCP client on the switch is enabled by default. When you connect the switch to your network, the DHCP server automatically assigns an IP address to the switch. Use the Smart Control Center (SCC) to discover the IP address automatically assigned to the switch.
For information about the SCC, visit
Note: By default, you can use the SCC to discover the IP address of the
switch, but you cannot use the SCC to perform any actions on the switch. However, if you enable the configuration option of the SCC, you can use it to configure the switch (see

Access the switch off-network and not connected to the Internet

The default IP address of the switch is 192.168.0.239. The IP address of the computer that you use to access the switch off-network must be in the same subnet as the default IP address of the switch.
Note: If you prefer to use the Smart Control Center (SCC) to configure the
switch, you must access the switch off-network as described in the following procedure and then enable the configuration option of the SCC (see Manage the Smart Control Center on page 259).
