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 Port Configurations. D-Link Web Smart Switches offer four port configurations, 24/48 Ethernet
ports or 8/24 Ethernet ports with PoE support. All ports of the switch 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, SNTP, LLDP and Loopback
Detection to enhance performance and network resiliency.
Traffic Segmentation, QoS and Auto Surveillance VLAN. The switches support 802.1Q VLAN standard
tagging to enhance network security and performance. The switches also support 802.1p priority queues,
enabling users to run bandwidth-sensitive applications such as streaming multimedia by prioritizing that
traffic in network. These functions allow switches to work seamlessly with VLAN and 802.1p traffic in the
network. Auto Surveillance VLAN will automatically place the vedio traffic from pre-defined IP surveillance
devices to an assigned VLAN with higher priority, so it can be separated from normal data 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.
