D-Link’s Nuclias Cloud is an innovative cloud networking solution that allows you to centrally

manage your entire network from anywhere, any time through its intuitive portal interface or

mobile app. Featuring a full range of cloud-managed access points and switches supported

by zero- touch deployment, Nuclias Cloud enables small businesses and enterprises to quickly

deploy and build a powerful and versatile global wired and wireless network.

The DBS-2000 Series Nuclias Cloud-Managed Switches are deployed as pre-congured, zero-

conguration switches controlled through the Nuclias Cloud1. They are best-in-class switches

designed specically for distributed networks, featuring a wide range of models featuring 10,

28, or 52 PoE and non-PoE ports with 2 SFP or 4 combo ports congurations.

Comprehensive L2 and Network Security Features

Equipped with a complete line-up of L2 and security features, the DBS-2000 Series includes

IGMP snooping, voice VLAN Spanning Tree Protocols (STP and RSTP), Access Control Lists

(ACLs) and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). Network maintenance features include

loopback detection and cable diagnostics. Loopback detection is used to detect loops created

by a specic port and automatically shut down the aected port. The cable diagnostic feature,

designed primarily for administrators and customer service representatives, can rapidly discover

errors and determine the cable quality, allowing hassle-free diagnostics and maintenance.

To ensure the safety and reliability of all sensitive trac, all management data to and from

the cloud is separated from regular data using an SSL encrypted out-of-band connection. In

addition, Nuclias oers a range of industry standard authentication and authorisation methods

to control user access. Administrator can congure external RADIUS servers and set up IP and

MAC-based access control lists to authenticate and authorise clients and create a safe and

trusted network environment.

Nuclias Cloud-Managed Switches

Centralised Management with Nuclias Cloud

Designed to be managed through the Nuclias Cloud, DBS-2000 Series

switches are easily set up with the help of the intuitive browser-based or

mobile app interface. Centralised cloud management allows for zero-touch

provisioning, enabling businesses to quickly congure, deploy, maintain,

and expand their network remotely. Conguration settings can be set up,

managed, and deployed through the cloud anytime, anywhere through any

web browser or the dedicated mobile app, meaning devices can be deployed

at a remote location without any need for trained on-site sta. Save time by

conguring switches of the same model series in bulk. Similarly, if the same

set of ports of multiple switches uses the same conguration prole, this port

conguration can easily be deployed and updated in bulk.

Hassle-free Administration and Versatile Deployment

Using Nuclias Cloud, businesses can now more eectively organise their

entire wireless network, manage multiple switches simultaneously and

monitor live network statistics. With the user-friendly management

dashboard, administrators have access to an intuitive way of organising the

Nuclias by D-Link

network into multiple sites, which simplies management across multiple

areas. With no limitation on the number of devices, businesses can easily

cater to the demands of a growing network by simply adding more devices to

the network. Over-the-air rmware updates can be automatically pushed to

devices through the cloud.

Automated Monitoring and Alerts

Through the intuitive dashboard, administrators can remotely view real-time

information about the network and get an instant overview of key network

statistics such as performance, connectivity, and network usage. Through the

dashboard quickly view both switch and access point status information such

as link status and number of connected devices. Easily view your switches’

real-time port trac and connection status. For switches with PoE ports, you

can even see real-time power consumption statistics. Administrators can

lter and customise the dashboard to display only the necessary information

for a more focused experience. Be ahead of any problems with instant push

notications and alerts that can be customised to ensure that administrators

can swiftly identify problems and perform immediate troubleshooting.

is a complete cloud-managed networking
solution for small to medium-sized
organisations with one or more sites.

How it works

Wi-Fi coverage and network capacity are provided by
high-performance Access Points and Switches deployed

on site, while conguration and ongoing management can

be carried out remotely through a web browser or tablet.

Zero-touch provisioning and centralised cloud-based
control make the network simpler to install and easier to
manage.
