Credentials for the local browser UI
The information in this section applies to accessing the switch local browser UI in either
management mode. That is, it does not apply to accessing the NETGEAR Insight app and
Cloud portal.
Note: Until you register and access the switch with your NETGEAR account,
you can access only a limited menu of the local browser UI. This
limitation applies to either management mode.
We recommend that you register and access the switch with your NETGEAR account (see
Register and access the switch with your NETGEAR account on page 29). After you do so,
you can access the local browser UI with the local device password, or if you previously
already added the switch to an Insight network location, with the Insight network password
(for more information, see below).
NETGEAR Insight can affect how you access the switch local browser UI. If you use the
NETGEAR Insight app to discover the switch in your physical network and add the switch to
an Insight network location (this process is referred to as claiming), the switch is
automatically registered to your NETGEAR account.
IMPORTANT:
After you add the switch to an Insight network location, the
Insight network password replaces the switch local device
password. To access the local browser UI, you must enter the
Insight network password. For
information about how the Insight
network password functions, visit
netgear.com/support/product/Insight.aspx. For knowledge base
articles about NETGEAR Insight, visit netgear.com/support.
However, if you use the NETGEAR Insight app to discover the IP address of the switch in
your physical network but do not claim the switch by adding it to an Insight network location,
