Management Options
The DGS-1100-10MP switch can be managed through
the Web UI or the D-Link Network Assistant (DNA)
utility.
If you want to manage only one D-Link Smart switch, the
Web-based management is the better option. Each switch
must be assigned its own IP address, which is used for
communication with Web UI. The PC should have an IP
address in the same range as the switch.
However, if you want to manage multiple D-Link switches,
the DNA utility is the better option. Using the DNA utility,
you don't need to change the IP address of your PC and it
is easy to start the initial setting of multiple switches.
Please refer to the following detailed installation instructions
for the Web-based management and DNA.
1. Web-Based Management Interface
After a successful physical installation, you can
configure the switch, monitor the LED panel and
display statistics graphically using a Web browser,
such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome or
Safari.
You need the following equipment to begin the web
configuration of your device:
• A PC with a RJ-45 Ethernet connection
• A standard Ethernet cable
1. Connect the Ethernet cable to any of the ports in front
panel of the switch and to the Ethernet port on the PC.
2. In order to log in the Web UI, the PC must have an
IP address in the same range as the switch. For
example, if the switch has an IP address of 10.90.90.90,
the PC should have an IP address of 10.x.y.z (where
x/y is a number between 0 and 255, z is a number
Note: The switch's factory default IP address is
10.90.90.90 with a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 and a
default gateway of 0.0.0.0.
between 1 and 254) and a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0.
3. Open your Web browser and enter http://10.90.90.90
in the address box.
Note: The Web configuration can also be accessed

password. Press OK to enter the main configuration
window.
