Use a Windows-based computer to access the switch on-network
For the following procedure, the network must provide Internet access.
To use a Windows-based computer to determine the switch IP address and access the
switch on-network:
1. Cable the switch to a network with a router or DHCP server that manages IP addresses.
2. Power on the switch.
The DHCP server assigns the switch an IP address.
3. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired network connection.
4. Open Windows Explorer.
5. Click the Network link.
6. If prompted, enable the Network Discovery feature.
7. Under Network Infrastructure, locate the switch model number.
The model number is GC108P or GC108PP.
8. Depending on your model, double-click GC108P-XXXXXX or GC108PP-XXXXXX, in which
XXXXXX represents the last six digits of the switch MAC address.
The page that displays depends on whether you logged in before.
Note: NETGEAR provides enhanced security by enforcing secure access
and communication between your web browser and the switch. Your
browser might display a security message that your connection is not
private or not secure, or that a problem with the security certificate
occurred. If such as security message displays, you cannot proceed
but must take action. See the next step.
