NETGEAR Switch GS700TS User Manual

About This Manual  
®
The NETGEAR GS700TS Smart Switch Software Administration Manual describes how to  
install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot the GS700TS Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch using  
its included software. This book describes the software configuration procedures and explains the  
options available within those procedures.  
Who Should Use this Book  
The information in this manual is intended for readers with intermediate to advanced system  
management skills.  
This document was created primarily for the system administrator who wishes to install and  
configure the GS700TS Smart Switch in a network. This user guide assumes that the reader has a  
general understanding of switch platforms and a basic knowledge of Ethernet and networking  
concepts. To install this switch, it is not necessary to understand and use all of its capabilities.  
Once basic configuration is performed, the switch operates using the remaining factory default  
parameters. However, a greater level of configuration—anywhere from the basic up to the  
maximum possible—will allow your network the full benefit of the switch’s features. The web  
interface simplifies this configuration at all levels.  
How to Use This Book  
This document describes configuration commands for the GS700TS Smart Switch software. The  
commands can all be accessed from the Web interface.  
Chapter 1, “Getting Started with Switch Management” describes how to use the SmartWizard  
Discovery utility to set up your switch so that you can communicate with it.
