CHAPTER 3: Web Management Access
Your NETGEAR Smart Switch series provides a built-in browser interface that lets you configure and
manage it remotely using a standard Web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape
Navigator. This interface also allows for system monitoring of the switch. The help page will cover many of
the basic functions and features of the switch and its web interface.
Web Management requires either Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later or Netscape Navigator 6.0 or
later.
Note
: Only one user can be logged in at any time.

System> Switch Status Page
The Switch Status page displays the port settings for both 10/100 Mbps and 10/100/1000 Mbps ports. To
configure the ports, go to the Switch> Port Configuration page.
ID:
The port number on the switch
Speed: Indicates the communication mode set for the port. The default setting for all ports is Auto-
negotiation (Auto). The possible entries are Auto-negotiation (Auto), 10 Mbps half duplex (10M
Half), 10 Mbps full duplex (10M Full), 100 Mbps half duplex (100M Half), 100 Mbps full duplex
(100M Full), or Disable.
Flow Control: Indicates whether Flow Control support is set for on (Enabled) or off (Disabled). The
default setting for all ports is enabled.
QOS:
Indicate the priority for the port. The default setting for all ports is Normal. Quality of Service
(QoS) is a way of managing traffic in a network, by treating different types of traffic with different
levels of service priority.
Higher priority traffic gets faster treatment during times of switch
congestion.
Link Status:
Indicates the current speed and duplex for the port. DOWN means no link.
The next part of the Switch Status page shows the Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) status.
A VLAN is a
way to electronically separate specified ports on the same switch into separate broadcast domains.
By
using VLAN, users can group by logical function instead of physical location.
This switch supports 26
VLANs.
This page displays the port-based VLAN settings. The default VLAN setting is all ports belong to VLAN 1.
To configure user-defined VLAN groups, go to the Switch> VLAN page.
Port Trunking is a feature that allows multiple links between switches to work as one virtual link (aggregate
link). Trunks can be defined for similar port types only. For example, a 10/100 port cannot form a Port
Trunk with a gigabit port. For 10/100 ports, trunks can only be formed within the same bank. A bank is a set
of eight ports.
Up to four trunks can be operating at the same time.
This page displays the Trunk status as shown in Figure 2-4. The default Trunk setting is all four groups
disabled. To configure user-defined TURNK groups, go to the Switch> Trunking page.
If the IEEE802.1Q VLAN is enabled, this page will display the Tagged VLAN status as shown in Figures 2-
5 and 2-6. To know more about Tag VLAN, see Switch> VLAN for details.
System> IP Access List Page
This page displays an IP access list, which lists switches that are allowed to login this Switch.
The switch
will only respond to requests from computers with the IP address in the list, so make sure you include your
IP address if you are using this feature.
This is a powerful way to limit remote access to your switch. The
default setting is all host IP addresses allowed.
