3 Getting Started D-Link Smart Managed Switch User Manual 3 Getting Started This chapter introduces the management interface of D-Link Smart Managed Switch. Management Options The D-Link Smart Managed Switch can be managed through any port on the device by using the web-based management interface, or the D-Link Network Assistant (DNA). Each switch must be assigned its own IP address, which is used for communication with the web-based management interface or a SNMP network manager. The PC should have an IP address in the same range as the Switch. Each Switch allows up to four users to access the web-based management interface concurrently. However, if you want to manage multiple D-Link Smart Managed Switches, the D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) is a more convenient choice. By using the D-Link Network Assistant (DNA), you do not need to change the IP address of your PC, making it easier to simultaneously initialize multiple D-Link Managed Switches. Please refer to the following installation instructions for the Web interface and the D-Link Network Assistant (DNA). Using the Web-based Management Interface After successfully installing the Switch, you can configure and monitor the Switch through the web-based management tool using any compatible web browser such as Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera, or Safari.

management interface, or the D-Link Network Assistant (DNA).
Each switch must be assigned its own IP address, which is used for communication with the web-based
management interface or a SNMP network manager. The PC should have an IP address in the same range
as the Switch. Each Switch allows up to four users to access the web-based management interface
concurrently.
However, if you want to manage multiple D-Link Smart Managed Switches, the D-Link Network Assistant
(DNA) is a more convenient choice. By using the D-Link Network Assistant (DNA), you do not need to
change the IP address of your PC, making it easier to simultaneously initialize multiple D-Link Managed
Switches.
Please refer to the following installation instructions for the Web interface and the D-Link Network Assistant
(DNA).

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 ~ 254 and z is a number between 1 ~ 254), and a subnet mask of
