Figure 7 – Mount the Switch in the rack or chassis
Please be aware of following safety Instructions when installing:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be
given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipm ent is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is
not achieved due to uneven mech anical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use
of power strips)."

before powering your switch.
Required Tools and Equipment
Ground screws (included in the accessory kit): One M4 x 6 mm (metric) pan-head screw
Ground cable (not included in the accessory kit): The grounding cable should be sized according to
local and national installation requirements. Depending on the power supply and system, a 12 to 6
AWG copper conductor is required for U.S installation. Commercially available 6 AWG wire is
recommended. The length of the cable depends on the proximity of the switch to proper grounding
facilities.
A screwdriver (not included in the accessory kit)
The following steps let you connect the switch to a protective ground:
Step 1: Verify if the system power is off.
Step 2: Use the ground cable to place the #8 terminal lug ring on top of the ground-screw opening, as seen
in the figure below.
Step 3: Insert the ground screw into the ground-screw opening.

3 Getting Started
This chapter introduces the management interface of D-Link EasySmart Switch.
Management Options
The D-Link EasySmart Switch can be managed through any port on the device by using the Web-based
Management or through any PC using the SmartConsole Utility.
Each switch must be assigned its own IP Address, which is used for communication with Web-Based
Management. The PC’s IP address should be in the same range as the switch. Each switch can allow only
one user to access the Web-Based Management at a time.
The PC should have an IP address in the same range as the switch. Each switch can allow one user to
access to the Web-Based Management at a time.
However, if you want to manage multiple D-Link EasySmart Switches, the SmartConsole Utility is a more
convenient choice. By using the SmartConsole Utility, you do not need to change the IP address of your PC
and it is easier to initialize multiple EasySmart Switches.
Please refer to the following installation instructions for the Web-based Management and the SmartConsole
Utility.
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 higher
Netscape 8 or higher
Mozilla
Firefox 1.5/2.0 or higher
Connecting to the Switch
You will need the following equipment to begin the we b 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.

QoS > 802.1p Default Priority
QoS is an implementation of the IEEE 802.1p standard that allows network administrators to reserve
bandwidth for important functions that require a larger bandwidth or that might have a higher priority, such as
VoIP (voice-over Internet Protocol), web browsing applications, file server applications or video conferencing.
Thus with larger bandwidt h, less critical traffic is limited, and therefore excessive bandwidth can b e saved.
The following figure displays the status of Quality of Service priority levels of each port, higher priority means
the traffic from this port will be first handled by the switch. For packets that are untagged, the switch will
assign the priority depending on your configuration.
Figure 54 – QoS > 802.1p Default Priority
QoS > Storm Control
The Storm Control feature provides the ability to control the receive rate of broadcast, multicast, and
unknown unicast packets. Once a packet storm has been detected, the Switch will drop packets coming into
the Switch until the storm has subsided.

Appendix A - Ethernet Technology
This chapter will describe the features of the D-Link EasySmart Switch and provide some background
information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet switching technology.
Gigabit Ethernet Technology
Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet utilizing the same packet structure, format, and
support for CSMA/CD protocol, full duplex, and management objects, but with a tenfold increase in
theoretical throughput of over 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet and a hundredfold increase over 10-Mbps Ethernet.
Since it is compatible with all 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps Ethernet environments, Gigabit Ethernet provides a
straightforward upgrade without wasting existing inve stments in hardware, software, or trained personnel.
The increased speed and extra bandwidth offered by Gigabit Ethernet is essential to help solving network
bottlenecks that frequently develop as more advanced computer users and newer applications continue to
demand greater network resources. Upgrading key components, such as backbone connections and servers
to Gigabit Ethernet technology can greatly improve network response times as well as significantly speed up
the traffic between subnets.
Gigabit Ethernet enables fast optical fiber connections to support video conferencing, complex imaging, and
similar data-intensive applications. Likewise, since data transfers occur 10 times faster than Fast Ethernet,
servers outfitted with Gigabit Ethernet NIC’s are able to perform 10 times the number of operations in the
same amount of time.
In addition, the phenomenal bandwidth delivered by Gigabit Ethernet is the most cost-effective method to
take advantage of today and tomorrow’s rapidly improving switching and routing internetworking
technologies. And with expected advances in the coming years in silicon technology and digital signal
processing that will enable Gigabit Ethernet to eventually operate over unshield ed twisted-pair (UTP) cabli ng,
outfitting your network with a powerful 1000-Mbps-capable backbone/server connection which will create a
flexible foundation for the next generation of network tech nology products.
Fast Ethernet Technology
The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of desktop computing applications are
fueling the need for high performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN technologies have been
proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve client/server response times. Among them, 100BASE-T
(Fast Ethernet) provides a non-disruptive, smooth evolution from the current 10BASE-T technology. The
non-disruptive and smooth evolution nature, and the dominating potential market base, virtually guarantees
cost-effective and high perf ormance Fast Ethernet solutions.
100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a standard specified by the IEEE 802.3 LAN committee. It is an extension of the
10Mbps Ethernet standard with the ability to transmit and receive data at 100Mbps, while maintaining the
CSMA/CD Ethernet protocol. Since the 100Mbps Fast Ethernet is compatible with all other 10Mbps Ethernet
environments, it provides a straightforward upgrade and utilizes existing investments in hardware, software,
and personnel training.
Switching Technology
Another approach to push beyond the limits of Ethernet technology is the development of switching
technology. A switch bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting
among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN seg ments.
Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network capacity available to users on a local area
network. A switch increases capacity and decreases network loading by dividing a local area network into
different segments which won’t compete with each other for net work transmission capacity.
The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the individual segments. The switch, without
interfering with any other segments, automatically forwards traffic that needs to go from one segment to
another. By doing this the total network capacity is multiplied, while still maintaining the same network
cabling and adapter cards.

Appendix C – Rack mount Instructions
Safety Instructions - Rack Mount Instructions - The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included
with the installation instructions:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, co nsideration should be
given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipme nt in a rack should be su ch that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipm ent is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loadi ng - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous conditio n is
not achieved due to uneven mech anical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consi deration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable ea rthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply con nections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use
of power strips).
