Context-sensitive help
When you log in to the switch, every page contains a link to the online help () that contains
information to assist in configuring and managing the switch. The online help pages are
context sensitive. For example, if the IP Configuration page is open, the help topic for that
page displays if you click the link to the online help.
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 local browser 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 the switch, and then use a computer that is connected to the same network as
the switch to connect to the local browser UI. W
e refer to this setup as on-network or
online.
For more information, see
Access the switch on-network and connected to the Internet
on page 18).
• 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
onfigure it. That is, the
switch is not connected to the network and the Internet. We refer to this setup as
off-network or offline.
Before you can access the full menu of the local browser UI, you must connect the switch to
a network with Internet access at least once so that you can register the switch with
NETGEAR and unlock the full menu. Alternately, you can get a re
gistration key, which you
can enter to unlock the full menu while the switch is off-network.
For more information, see the following sections:
•
Register the switch on page 31.
•
Access the switch off-network on page 27.
