D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual

1 Product Introduction

Thank you and congratulations on your purchase of D-Link Web Smart Switch Products.

D-Link's next generation Web Smart Ethernet switch series blends plug-and-play simplicity with exceptional value and reliability for small and medium-sized business (SMB) networking. All models are housed in a new style rack-mount metal case with easy-to-view front panel diagnostic LEDs, and provides advance features including two combo 1000BASE-T/SFP and two additional Gigabit uplinks, network security, traffic segmentation, QoS and versatile management.

Flexible Options with 24 and 48 ports. D-Link Web Smart Switches offer two port densities, 24 and 48 Ethernet ports that support auto MDI/MDIX feature which bring inexpensive and easy Ethernet connection to the desktops. Each switch provides 4 Gigabit uplinks connection to a Gigabit backbone or servers. Two of the Gigabit ports are SFP combo ports which support both 1000M and 100M fiber connections.

Extensive Layer 2 Features. Implemented as complete Layer 2 devices, these switches include functions such as IGMP Snooping, Port Mirroring, Spanning Tree, 802.3ad LACP and Loopback Detection to enhance performance and network resiliency.

Traffic Segmentation and QoS. The switches support 802.1Q VLAN tagging to enhance network security and performance. The switches also support 802.1p priority queues, enabling users to run bandwidthsensitive applications such as multimedia streaming by prioritizing traffic in network. These functions allow switches to work seamlessly with VLAN and 802.1p traffic in the network. Auto Voice VLAN automatically places the voice traffic from IP phone to an assigned VLAN with higher priority, separating from normal traffic. Asymmetric VLAN is implemented in these switches for a more efficient use of shared resources such as server or gateway devices.

Network Security. D-Link’s innovative Safeguard Engine function protects the switches against traffic flooding caused by virus attacks. Additional feature like 802.1X port-based authentication provides access control of the network with external RADIUS servers. ACL is a powerful tool to screen unwanted IP or MAC traffic. Storm Control keeps the network from being overwhelmed by abnormal traffic. Port Security is another simple but useful authentication method to maintain the integrity of the network device.

Versatile Management. The new generation of D-Link Web Smart Switches provides growing businesses simple and easy management of their network. The SmartConsole utility or a multi-language Web-Based management interface allows administrators to remotely control their network down to the port level. The intuitive SmartConsole easily allows customers to discover multiple D-Link web smart switches in the same L2 network segment. With this utility, users do not need to change the IP address of PC and provides easy initial setting of smart switches. The switches within the same L2 network segment connected to user’s local PC are displayed on the screen for instant access. It allows extensive switch configuration setting, and basic configuration of discovered devices such as a password change or firmware upgrade.

Users can also access the Switch via Telnet. Basic tasks such as changing the Switch IP address, resetting the settings to factory defaults, setting the administrator password, rebooting the Switch, or upgrading the Switch firmware can be performed using the Command Line Interface (CLI).

In addition, users can utilize the SNMP MIB (Management Information Base) to poll switches for information about the status, or send out traps of abnormal events. SNMP support allows users to integrate the switches with other third-party devices for management in an SNMP-enabled environment. D-Link Web Smart Switches also come with the D-View plug-in module that works with D-View 6, SNMP Management Software which provides easy-to-use graphic interface and facilitates the operation efficiency.
