1. Getting Started
This chapter provides an overview of starting your NETGEAR ProSafe® Managed Switches and
accessing the user interface. This chapter contains the following sections:
• Switch Management Interface on page 10
• Web Access on page 10
• Web Access on page 10
• Understanding the User Interfaces on page 11
• Interface Naming Convention on page 16
Switch Management Interface
NETGEAR ProSafe® Managed Switches contain an embedded Web server and
management software for managing and monitoring switch functions. ProSafe® Managed
Switches function as simple switches without the management software. However, you can
use the management software to configure more advanced features that can improve switch
efficiency and overall network performance.
1
Web-based management lets you monitor, configure, and control your switch remotely using
a standard Web browser instead of using expensive and complicated SNMP software
products. From your Web browser, you can monitor the performance of your switch and
optimize its configuration for your network. You can configure all switch features, such as
VLANs, QoS, and ACLs by using the Web-based management interface.
Web Access
To access the ProSafe® Managed Switches management interface:
• Open a Web browser and enter the IP address of the switch in the address field.
You must be able to ping the IP address of the ProSafe® Managed Switches management
interface from your administrative system for Web access to be available. If you did not
change the IP address of the switch from the default value, enter 169.254.100.100 into the
address field.
Accessing the switch directly from your Web browser displays the login screen shown below.
Chapter : Getting Started | 10
ProSafe® XSM7224S 10G Managed Stackable Switch Software Administration Manual
Understanding the User Interfaces
ProSafe® Managed Switches software includes a set of comprehensive management
functions for configuring and monitoring the system by using one of the following methods:
• Web user interface
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
• Command Line Interface (CLI)
Each of the standards-based management methods allows you to configure and monitor the
components of the ProSafe® Managed Switches software. The method you use to manage
the system depends on your network size and requirements, and on your preference.
The ProSafe® Managed Switch Web Management User Manual describes how to use the
Web-based interface to manage and monitor the system.
Using the Web Interface
To access the switch by using a Web browser, the browser must meet the following software
requirements:
• HTML version 4.0, or later
• HTTP version 1.1, or later
• Java Runtime Environment 1.6 or later
Use the following procedures to log on to the Web interface:

Using SNMP
The ProSafe® Managed Switches software supports the configuration of SNMP groups and
users that can manage traps that the SNMP agent generates.
ProSafe® Managed Switches use both standard public MIBs for standard functionality and
private MIBs that support additional switch functionality. All private MIBs begin with a “-”
prefix. The main object for interface configuration is in -SWITCHING-MIB, which is a private
MIB. Some interface configurations also involve objects in the public MIB, IF-MIB.
SNMP is enabled by default. The System
Management System Information Web page,
which is the page that displays after a successful login, displays the information you need to
configure an SNMP manager to access the switch.
Any user can connect to the switch using the SNMPv3 protocol, but for authentication and
encryption, the switch supports only one user which is admin; therefore there is only one
profile that can be created or modified.
To configure authentication and encryption settings for the SNMPv3 admin profile by using
the Web interface:
1. Navigate to the System
SNMP SNMPv3 User Configuration page.
2. To enable authentication, select an Authentication Protocol option, which is either MD5 or
SHA.
3. To enable encryption, select the DES option in the Encryption Protocol field. Then, enter
an encryption code of eight or more alphanumeric characters in the Encryption Key field.
4. Click Apply.
To access configuration information for SNMPv1 or SNMPv2, click System
SNMP
SNMPv1/v2 and click the page that contains the information to configure.
Interface Naming Convention
The ProSafe® Managed Switches support physical and logical interfaces. Interfaces are
identified by their type and the interface number. The physical ports are gigabit interfaces and
