Switch management options and default
management mode
If you prefer, you can use the switch as a plug-and-play device, so you do not need to set up
a custom configuration. Just connect power, connect to your network and to your other
devices, and you’re done.
The switch provides administrative management options that let you configure, monitor, and
control the network. The device UI is enabled by default, allowing you to configure the switch
and the network from a web browser. You can also choose to manage the switch by using the
NETGEAR Insight app on a smartphone or tablet. Or, if you are an Insight Premium or Pro
subscriber, you can choose to manage the switch from the Insight Cloud portal that is
available from a web browser on your Windows-based computer, Mac, or tablet.
The switch provides the following management options that let you discover the switch on the
network and configure, monitor, and control the switch:
•Device UI: By default, the management mode of the switch is set to Directly Connect to
Web Browser Interface, which lets you access the device UI. In this mode, you can
change all settings of the switch.
•NETGEAR Insight app and Insight Cloud portal: If you set the management mode of
the switch to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal, you can use the
following applications to manage the switch remotely:
-NETGEAR Insight app. With the NETGEAR Insight app, you can discover the switch
on the network and add the switch to the NETGEAR Insight app so that you can set
up the switch in the network and manage and monitor the switch remotely from your
smartphone or tablet. You can choose from four methods to add the switch to the
NETGEAR Insight app: You can scan your network for the switch, scan the QR code
or the barcode of the switch, or add the serial number of the switch.
-Insight Cloud portal: As an Insight Premium or Insight Pro subscriber, you can use
the NETGEAR Insight Cloud portal to set up the switch in the network, perform
advanced remote setup, configuration, and management, monitor the switch, analyze
the switch and network usage, and, if necessary, troubleshoot the switch and the
network. A free trial is available for new customers.
For more information about NETGEAR Insight, visit netgear.com/insight and
netgear.com/support/product/Insight.aspx. For knowledge base articles about
NETGEAR Insight, visit netgear.com/support.
To use the NETGEAR Insight app or Insight Cloud portal methods, you must change the
management method to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal. After you do
so, you can also change the management method back to Directly Connect to Web Browser
Interface and use the device UI. For more information, see

you use to access the switch off-network must in the same subnet as the default IP address
of the switch.
To access the switch off-network and not connected to the Internet:
1. Change the IP settings of your computer to be in the same subnet as the IP settings of
the switch.
If the DHCP client of the switch is enabled and you remove the switch from the network
with the DHCP server, the IP address reverts to the default IP address of 192.168.0.239
with a subnet of 255.255.255.0. If you already disabled the DHCP client and assigned a
static IP address to the switch, change the IP settings of your computer to be in the same
subnet as the static IP address.
For more information about changing the IP settings on your computer, see one of the
following knowledge base articles at the NETGEAR website:
•Windows-based computer: See the following article:

to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal.
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 previously added the switch to a network location on the Insight app or Insight
Cloud portal, all Insight-manageable device settings are returned to the last
configuration saved on the cloud server, including the switch device admin password
(that is, the password is reset to the Insight network location password).
-If you use the Insight app or the Insight Cloud portal, you can temporarily change the
management mode of the switch back to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface.
You can then access the device UI for settings that are not Insight-manageable, for
complex tasks such as integrating with an existing network of devices that are not
managed through Insight, and for debugging purposes. When you are done, you can
change the management mode back to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight
Cloud Portal.
•Changing back to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface mode:
After you change the management mode, back up your configuration. Then, reset the
switch to factory defaults. Finally, restore your configuration and reboot the switch. For
more information, see
Web Browser Interface on page39.
After you change the management mode, the follow occurs:
-The NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal management mode is
disabled and the current Insight-manageable device settings are saved to the cloud
server.
-Any changes that you make using the Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface
management mode are not saved to the cloud server.

through any port.
Configure System Information User Manual58
8-Port Multi-Gigabit/10G Ethernet (Ultra60 PoE++) Smart Managed Pro Switch
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 VLANs on page 156.
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

Configure the IPv6 network settings for the device UI
You can configure IPv6 network information for the device UI, which is the logical interface
used for in-band connectivity with the switch through any of the switch’s front-panel ports.
To access the switch over an IPv6 network, you must initially configure the switch with IPv6
information (an IPv6 prefix, prefix length, and default gateway). You can configure IPv6 using
one of the following options:
•IPv6 auto-configuration
•DHCPv6
When in-band connectivity is established, IPv6 information can be changed using
SNMP-based management or web-based management.
To configure the IPv6 network settings for the device UI:
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.

8. Determine how the switch acquires an IPv6 address:
•IPv6 Address Auto Configuration Mode: When this mode is enabled, the network
interface can acquire an IPv6 address through IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol
(NDP) and through the use of router advertisement messages. When this mode is
disabled, the network interface does not use the native IPv6 address
auto-configuration features to acquire an IPv6 address. Auto-configuration can be
enabled only when DHCPv6 is not enabled on any of the management interfaces.
•DHCPv6: Next to Current Network Configuration Protocol, select the DHCPv6 radio
button to enable the DHCPv6 client on the interface. The switch attempts to acquire
network information from a DHCPv6 server. Selecting the None radio button disables
the DHCPv6 client on the network interface.
When DHCPv6 is enabled, the DHCPv6 Client DUID field displays the client identifier
used by the DHCPv6 client (if enabled) when sending messages to the DHCPv6
server.
9. In the IPv6 Gateway field, specify the default gateway for the IPv6 network interface.
The gateway address is in IPv6 global or link-local address format.
10. To configure one or more static IPv6 addresses for the management interface, do the
following:
a. In the IPv6 Prefix/Prefix Length field, specify the static IPv6 prefix and prefix to the
IPv6 network interface.
The address is in the global address format.
b. In the EUI64 menu, select True to enable the Extended Universal Identifier (EUI)
flag for IPv6 address, or select False to omit the EUI flag.

•An SNTP server is configured.
•The switch can contact the SNTP server
8. Next
to Client Mode, select the mode of operation of the SNTP client:
•Unicast: SNTP operates in a point-to-point fashion.
.
A unicast client sends a request
to a designated server at its unicast address and expects a reply from which it can
determine the time and, optionally, the round-trip delay and local clock offset relative
to the server.
•Broadcast: SNTP operates in the same manner as multicast mode but uses a local
broadcast
address instead of a multicast address. The broadcast address provides a
single-subnet scope while a multicast address provides an Internet-wide scope.
The default value is Unicast.

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. 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: 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.
Configure System Information User Manual68
8-Port Multi-Gigabit/10G Ethernet (Ultra60 PoE++) Smart Managed Pro Switch
•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.
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.
•T3: Time that the server sent a reply.
•T4: 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.
You can view and modify information for adding and modifying Simple Network Time
Protocol SNTP servers.
Add an SNTP server
To add an SNTP server:
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.

The address can be an IPv4 address, IPv6 address, or host name (DNS).
8. In the Address field, specify the IP address or the host name of the SNTP server.
This is a text string of up to 64 characters, containing the encoded unicast IP address or
host name of an SNTP server. Unicast SNTP requests are sent to this address. If this
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 range is from 1 to 65535. The default value is 123.
10. In the Priority field, specify the priority order which to 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 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 range is from 1 to 3. The default value is 1.
11. In the Version field, specify the NTP version running on the server.
The range is 1 to 4. The default value is 4.

Power over Ethernet (model MS510TXUP)
You can configure the global Power over Ethernet (PoE) configuration settings and the PoE
settings for each Ethernet port of model MS510TXUP.
PoE concepts
The PoE++ ports on model MS510TXUP support IEEE 802.3bt PoE. This model is also
compatible with PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) and PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and can support non-PoE
devices.
The maximum PoE power budget across all active PoE++ ports is 295W. The maximum PoE
power that an individual PoE++ port can supply is 60W.
Device class power requirements
PoE++, PoE+, and PoE use Ethernet cables to supply power to PoE-capable devices on the
network, such as WiFi 6 PoE+ and other access points, pan–tilt–zoom (PTZ) cameras, IP
cameras, VoIP phones, LED lighting, PoE speakers, and AV encoders. The switch is
compliant with the IEEE 802.3bt standard (PoE++) and backward compatible with the IEEE
IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) and 802.3af (PoE) standards. The switch can pass power through to
any powered device (PD) that supports these standards and lets you power such a device
without the need for a separate power supply.
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 PoE class response
to the switch in many ways, depending on how the vendor programmed the device.

Range of power delivered
to the powered device
The previous table shows the standard power ranges, calculated with the maximum cable
length of 328 feet (100 meters). If a powered device (PD) receives insufficient PoE power
from the switch, consider using a shorter cable.
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
total available power budget. (For information about the total available power budget, see
the
PoE concepts on page88.)
An example:
Port 1 delivers 4.4W to a PD. The available power budget is 290.6W (295W–4.4W).
Another example:
A Class 3 PD is attached to Port 1, a Class 6 PD to Port 2, and another Class 6 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 44.7W, and the PD attached to
Configure System Information User Manual89
8-Port Multi-Gigabit/10G Ethernet (Ultra60 PoE++) Smart Managed Pro Switch
Port 3 consumes 46.9W. So even though the switch provides power to two Class 6 devices
and one Class 3 device, the available power budget is 196.1W (295W–7.3–44.7–46.9W).
To determine the delivered power by a PoE++ port:

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.
Configure System Information User Manual94
8-Port Multi-Gigabit/10G Ethernet (Ultra60 PoE++) Smart Managed Pro Switch
•802.3at: The port is powered in the IEEE 802.3at mode and is backward compatible
with IEEE 802.3af. 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.
•Pre-802.3bt. The port supports Class 4 devices that use 4-pair PoE (4PPoE) to
receive power higher than 30W (up to the maximum power of 60W) but that are not
compliant with IEEE 802.3bt. The port also supports the IEEE 802.3at and IEEE
802.3af modes.
•Pre-802.3bt (max power): The port supports Class 4 devices that use 4-pair PoE
(4PPoE) to receive power higher than 30W (up to the maximum power of 60W) but
that are not compliant with IEEE 802.3bt. In this mode, the port allocates the
maximum power of 60W to the device. The port also supports the IEEE 802.3at and
IEEE 802.3af modes.
•802.3bt-type3: The port supports the IEEE 802.3bt Type 3 mode, the IEEE
802.3atmode, and the IEEE 802.3af mode. The 802.3bt-type3 mode is the default
mode.
11. From the Detection Type menu, select how the port detects the attached PD:
•IEEE 802: The port performs a 4-point resistive detection. This is the default setting.
•4ptdot3af+legacy: The port performs a 4-point resistive detection, and if required,
continues with legacy detection.
•Legacy: The port performs legacy detection.

PoE timer schedules
You can define multiple timer schedules (each with a unique name) that you can use for PoE
power delivery to attached powered devices (PDs).
After you create a timer schedule, you can associate it with one or more PoE ports (see
Configure the PoE port settings on page93). You can use a separate timer schedule for
each PoE port.
IMPORTANT:
After you associate a timer schedule with a PoE port, the start date
and time force the PoE port to stop delivering power and the stop
date and time enable the PoE port to start delivering power.
You can create absolute timer schedules, which apply to specific dates and times, and you
can create recurring timer schedules. For each timer schedule, you can add multiple entries
that apply to the selected timer schedule only.
