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, or through any PC using 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 or a SNMP network manager. The PC should have an IP address in the same range as the
switch. Each switch can allow up to four users to access the Web-Based Management 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 and it is easier to initialize multiple Smart Switches.
Please refer to the following installation instructions for the Web-based Management and the D-Link Network
Assistant (DNA).
Using Web-based Management
After a successful physical installation, you can configure the Switch, monitor the network status, and display
statistics using a web browser.
Supported Web Browsers
The embedded Web-based Management currently supports the following web browsers:
Internet Explorer 6 or later version
Netscape 8 or later version
Firefox 3.0 or later version
Opera 10 or later version
Mozilla the latest version
Connecting to the Switch
You will need the following equipment to begin the web configuration of your device:
1. A PC with a RJ-45 Ethernet connection
2. A standard Ethernet cable
Connect the Ethernet cable to any of the ports on the front panel of the switch and to the Ethernet port on the
PC.
