Access the Switch On-Network from a Mac Using Bonjour

support Bonjour, see Determine the Switch IP Address Using the NETGEAR Insight App and
Access the Switch On-Network on page 17.
 To use a Mac and web browser to access the switch that is connected to a 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.

You can use a WiFi or wired network connection.
