browser interface or through the ProSAFE Plus Utility. You can change the switch
management mode so that only management through a web browser is enabled and access

ProSAFE Plus Utility, the switch and its IP address on the network are still discoverable
through the ProSAFE Plus Utility.
To change the switch management mode:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that is
off-network using an Ethernet cable.
