Credentials for the device UI

The information in this section applies to accessing the switch device UI in either management mode. That is, it does not apply to accessing the NETGEAR Insight app and Cloud portal.
To access the device UI, and depending on your situation, use one of the following credentials:
NETGEAR account credentials:
You can register the switch online to activate your warranty by entering your NETGEAR account credentials (see the switch online on page 32). If you do not have a NETGEAR account, you can create one.

Alternatively , you can obtain a registration key and enter the key when the switch is offline so that you are no longer prompted to activate your warranty (see
Register the switch
with your NETGEAR account and get a registration key for offline access on page 33).
Device admin password: You can access the device UI with your device admin password. The first time that you access the device UI, enter the default device admin password
(password), after which you are required to customize the password for greater security Subsequent times that you log in to the device UI, use your customized device admin password.
NETGEAR Insight network location password:
NETGEAR Insight can affect how you access the switch device UI. After you add the switch to an Insight network location and change the management mode of the switch so that you can use the NETGEAR Insight app and Insight Cloud portal to manage the switch remotely (see
Change the management mode of the switch on page 37), the Insight network location password replaces the switch device admin password. To access the device UI, you must enter the Insight network location password.
Even if you temporarily change the management mode of the switch back to Direct Connect Web Browser Interface, for example to change settings that are not Insight-manageable or for debugging purposes, you must enter the Insight network location password.

Configure an SNTP server

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. receives time from Stratum 1 and above since it is itself a Stratum 2 device.
The following is an example of strata:
Stratum 0. A real-time clock is used as the time source, for example, a GPS system.
Stratum 1.
A server that is directly linked to a Stratum 0 time source is used. 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, from a Stratum 1 server.
The device
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.
•T3.
•T4.
Time that the original request was received by the server. Time that the server sent a reply.
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 method is selected, SNTP information is accepted only from SNTP servers defined on the device using the SNTP Server Configuration page.
The device retrieves synchronization information, either by actively requesting information or at every poll interval.
Y ou can view and modify information for adding and modifying Simple Network T ime Protocol SNTP servers.

address is a DNS host name, then that host name is resolved into an IP address each time an SNTP request is sent to it.
9. If the UDP port on the SNTP server to which SNTP requests are sent is not the standard port (123), specify the port number in the Port field.
The valid range is 1 to 65535. The default value is 123.
10. In Priority field, specify the priority order in which the switch must query the servers. The SNTP client on the device continues sending SNTP requests to different servers until
a successful response is received, or all servers are exhausted.
The priority indicates the order in which to the switch must query the servers. The request is sent to an SNTP server with a priority value of 1 first, then to a server with a priority value of 2, and so on. If any servers are assigned the same priority, the SNTP client contacts the servers in the order that they appear in the table. The valid range is 1 to 3. The default value is 1.

By default, supplied power is prioritized in ascending port order, up to the total power budget of the device. If the power requirements for the attached devices exceed the total power budget of the switch, the power to the device on the highest-numbered PoE+ port is disabled to make sure that the devices connected to the higher-priority, lower-numbered PoE+ ports are supported first.
It is important to note that although a device is listed as an 802.3at (PoE+) powered or
802.3af (PoE) powered device, it might not require the maximum power limit that is specified. Many devices require less power the devices correctly report their PoE class to the switch.

Device class power requirements

PoE and PoE+ use Ethernet cables to supply power to PoE-capable devices on the network, such as WiFi access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and switches. The switch is compliant with the IEEE 802.3at standard (PoE+) and backward compatible with the IEEE 802.3af standard (PoE). The switch can pass power through to any powered device (PD) that supports these standards. PoE and PoE+ let you power such devices without the need for a separate power supply.
, when
The switch supports a Plug-and-Play process by which it detects the type of device that is connected to one of its PoE+ ports and whether that device needs power and how much so that the switch can provide the correct power to the device.
During the Plug-and-Play process, the connected device can provide its Class response to the switch in many ways, depending on how the vendor programmed the device.
Configure System Information User Manual94

Power allocation and power budget concepts

The switch is a smart switch in that it can allocate the required power to a connected device by using a prioritization scheme: By default, power is supplied in ascending port order (that is, lower port numbers are served first) until the power budget is consumed and insufficient power remains to allocate to the next device. When less than 7W of PoE power is available on a port, the port PoE LED lights yellow, and the attached device does not receive power from the port. However, the switch continues to send data through the port connection.
The switch is also a smart switch in that it can override the IEEE power classification of a powered device (PD): If the PD consumes less power than required by its power classification, the switch provides only the power that the PD consumes instead of the power that is required by the PD’
s power classification.
If some PoE+ ports are in use and deliver power
, you can calculate the available power budget for the other PoE+ ports by subtracting the consumed (that is, delivered power) from the total available power budget. (For information about the total available power budget, see PoE concepts on page 94.)
An example for model GS728TPv2: Port 1 delivers 4.4W to a PD. The available power budget is 185.6W (190W–4.4W).
An example for model GS752TPP: A Class 4 PD is attached to Port 1, a Class 2 PD to Port 2, and another Class 4 PD to Port 3. However, the PDs consume less power than defined by their classes: The PD attached to Port 1 consumes 7.3W, the PD attached to Port 2 consumes 4.7W, and the PD attached to Port 3 consumes 8.9W. So even though the switch provides power to two Class 4 devices and one Class 3 device, if the default power adapter is installed, the available power budget is 739.1W (760W–7.3–4.7–8.9W).

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 T
ype 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.

User.
The port power limit is equal to the class of the attached PD.
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.
12. In the Power Limit (mW) field, enter the maximum power (in mW) that the port can deliver The range is 3,000–30,000 mW. The default is 30,000 mW.
13. From the Detection T
