10/16/24/48-Port Web Smart Switch
D-Link’s DGS-1210 Series is the latest generation
of Web Smart Switches featuring D-Link Green
Technology. The series integrates advanced
management and security functions that provide
performance and scalability. Additionally, the DES1210-10P’s 10/100/1000 Mbps ports are PoE-enabled,
offering ease-of-use and green features like timebased PoE, which allows for the power to be shut off
at a predetermined time. Compliant with 802.3af and
802.3at Pre-Standard, this switch is capable of feeding
power to devices up to 30 Watts. Management options
for the switches include SNMP, Web Management,
SmartConsole Utility, and Compact Command Lines.
The series also supports ACL filtering and D-Link’s
Safeguard Engine. The DGS-1210 Series uses Auto
Voice VLAN, ensuring higher priority for voice traffic.
The DGS-1210-10P comes with a fanless design in
a compact 13” desktop enclosure, the DGS-121016 and DGS-1210-24 feature a fanless design in 19”
metal cases. The DGS-1210-48 is equipped with two
smart fans which are set to low speed by default
and will automatically switch to high speed once
the temperature threshold is reached. A fanless
design allows for quieter operation and guarantees
an extended lifetime, while smart fans help to save
power.
D-Link Green
D-Link is constantly striving to take the lead in
developing innovative technology that allows
for power-saving without sacrificing operational
performance or functionality. The DGS-1210 Series
automatically detects the length of connected cables
and can adjust power usage by saving energy on
shorter cable connections of up to 20 meters. Link
status drastically reduces power consumption by
automatically toggling ports without a link to sleep
mode. The DGS-1210 Series takes the approach to
green IT one step further by incorporating a special
chipset with advanced silicon technology.
Seamless Integration
The DGS-1210 Series comes with Ethernet and Gigabit
copper ports capable of connecting to existing Cat.5
twisted-pair cables. Additionally, the last 2 or 4 ports
of the DGS-1210 Series combine SFP and copper
connectivity into one port and therefore provide a
more flexible solution for upstream or downstream
server connections via fiber interface. Using the
default presets, the administrator can quickly set up
the switch without reconfiguring any settings.
Extensive Layer 2 Features
Equipped with a complete lineup of L2 features, these
switches include IGMP Snooping, Port Mirroring,
Spanning Tree and Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP). The IEEE 802.3x Flow Control function allows
servers to directly connect to the switch for fast,
reliable data transfer. At 2000 Mbps Full Duplex,
the Gigabit ports provide high-speed data pipes to
servers with minimum data transfer loss. Network
maintenance features include Loopback Detection
and Cable Diagnostics. Loopback Detection is
used to detect loops created by a specific port and
automatically shut down the affected port. The
Cable Diagnostic feature, designed primarily for
adminstrators and customer service representatives,
can rapidly discover the type of error and determine
the cable quality.
QoS, Bandwidth Control
The switches are perfect for deployment in a VoIP
environment, as they support Auto Voice VLAN and
Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) QoS
for VoIP. Auto Voice VLAN will automatically place
voice traffic from an IP phone to an assigned VLAN
and by doing so enhance the VoIP service. With
a higher priority and individual VLAN, this feature
guarantees the quality and security of VoIP traffic.
DSCP marks parts of an IP packet, enabling different
levels of service to be assigned for network traffic.
With Bandwidth Control, network administrators can
reserve bandwidth for important functions that require
a larger bandwidth or might have high priority.

Secure your Network
D-Link’s innovative Safeguard Engine protects the
switches against traffic flooding caused by virus
attacks. The switches also support 802.1X portbased authentication, allowing the network to be
authenticated through external RADIUS servers.
In addition, the Access Control List (ACL) feature
enhances network security and helps to protect the
internal IT network. The DGS-1210 Series includes
ARP Spoofing Prevention, which protects from
attacks on the Ethernet network that may allow an
intruder to sniff data frames, modify traffic, or bring
traffic to a halt altogether by sending fake ARP
messages to the network. To prevent ARP Spoofing
attacks, the switch uses Packet Control ACLs to block
invalid packets that contain fake ARP messages. For
added security, the DHCP Server Screening feature
screens rogue DHCP server packets from user ports
to prevent unauthorized IP assignment.
Versatile Management
The DGS-1210 series provides a SmartConsole utility
and a web-based management interface that enables
administrators to remotely control their network
down to the port level. The SmartConsole easily
allows customers to discover multiple D-Link Web
Smart Switches within the same L2 network segment.
With this utility, users do not need to change the IP
address of their PC. It also simplifies the initial setup
of the Smart Switches. Switches within the same L2
network segment that are connected to the user’s
PC are displayed on screen for instant access. This
allows extensive switch configuration and basic
setup of discovered devices including password
changes and firmware upgrades. The DGS-1210
Series also supports D-View 6.0 and Compact
Command Line Interface (CLI) through Telnet. D-View
6.0 is a Network Management System that allows
for the central management of critical network
characteristics such as availability, reliability,
resilience, and security. CLI management of the
switches is possible via Telnet. This makes it possible
to adjust basic settings, passwords, configuration
files, and firmware with ease.
