3 Product Introduction D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual 3 Product Introduction Thank you and congratulations on your purchase of D-Link Web Smart Switch Products. D-Link's next generation Web Smart Gigabit switch series blends plug-and-play simplicity with exceptional performance 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 provide advance features including up to two or four combo SFP fiber connections, network security, traffic segmentation, QoS and versatile management. Some of the advanced features include: A Switch for Each Business Size: With three models (16, 24 and 48) Gigabit ports to choose from, this series provides flexible choices for different network size requirements. Since Gigabit copper ports capable of connecting to your existing Cat.5 twisted-pair cable, these switches eliminate the need of a complex reconfiguration process. In addition supports auto-detection of MDI/MDIX, bringing inexpensive and easy Gigabit connection to the desktops. Each switch provides two or four combo SFP slots for flexible connection to a fiber backbone or servers. All the SFP slots support 100M and 1000M dual speed fiber connections. Extensive Layer 2 Features: Implemented as complete L2 devices, these switches include functions such as Jumbo frame support, IGMP snooping, port mirroring, Spanning Tree, port trunks. The IEEE 802.3x flow control function allows your servers to directly connect to the switch for fast, reliable data transfer. Traffic Segmentation and QoS: The switches support 802.1Q VLAN standard tagging by prioritizing traffic to enhance network security and performance. Also support 802.1p priority queues, enabling users to run bandwidth-sensitive applications such as streaming multimedia and VoIP in network. These functions allow switches to work seamlessly with VLAN and 802.1p traffic in network. 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 features like MAC address filters screen access to the network. They support 802.1X port-based authentication, allowing network to be configured with external RADIUS servers. Versatile Management: The new generation of Gigabit web smart switches provides growing businesses simple and easy management of their network using an intuitive SmartConsole utility or a Web-Based management interface that allows administrators to remotely control their network down to the port level. The SmartConsole easily allows customers to discover multiple D-Link web smart switches with the same L2 network segment connected to user's local PC. With this utility, users do not need to change the IP address of PC and also provides easy initial setting of smart switches. The switches with 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 password change, firmware upgrade. In addition, users can also use the built-in MIB browser to poll the switches for information about their status and send traps of abnormal events. MIB support allows users to integrate the switches with third-party devices for management in an SNMP environment.

Product Introduction
Thank you and congratulations on your purchase of D-Link Web Smart Switch Products.
D-Link's next generation Web Smart Gigabit switch series blends plug-and-play simplicity with exceptional
performance 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 provide advance
