WFS709TP ProSafe Smart Wireless Switch Software Administration Manual
1-16 Overview of the WFS709TP
v1.0, June 2007
Configuring and Managing the WFS709TP
The browser interface allows you to configure and manage WFS709TPs. The browser interface is
accessible through a standard web browser from a remote management console or workstation.
Before you can use the management interface from a remote console or workstation, you must
configure the WFS709TP with an IP address and default gateway and connect it to your network.
See Chapter 2, “Deploying a Basic WFS709TP System” for more information.
All WFS709TPs have a serial port for connecting to a local console, and a 10/100 Mbps Fast
Ethernet port for out-of-band management. Refer to the document WFS709TP ProSafe Smart
Wireless Switch Hardware Installation Guide for more information about the switch’s ports.
To use the browser interface, enter the IP address of the WFS709TP in a web browser.
Note: In this manual, the instructions for reaching a specific browser interface page are
shortened to specify the sequence of tab or page selections; for example, “Navigate
to the Configuration > Basic > Network > VLAN page.”
Note: You can find the WFS709TP ProSafe Smart Wireless Switch Hardware Installation
Guide in PDF form on the WFS709TP Resource CD. It is also available from the
NETGEAR support site.
Note: The WFS709TP browser interface requires Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher. Other
browsers may work, but have limited functionality and are therefore not supported.
