Hi MDCME,
Welcome to our community! 🙂
Yes, definitely. You can just plug and play this to your network and make sure that you do have a DHCP server running on your network in order for the switch to pick-up an IP. I also suggest you to upgrade the firmware of the switch to its latest version so that it will be ready once you need the functionality of a smart switch.
You may download the latest firmware here.
If ever your concern has been addressed or resolved, I encourage you to mark the appropriate reply as the “Accepted Solution” so others can be confident in benefiting from the solution. The NETGEAR Community looks forward to hearing from you and being a helpful resource in the future!
Regards,
