Introduction

Thank you for choosing the D-Link DGE-530T, the value leader among Gigabit adapters for PCI Bus personal computers. This introduction gives a general description of the newer networking technologies found on the DGE-530T.

The DGE-530T provides the bandwidth capability to support high-end servers and workstations. With Auto-negotiation, this card can run on three different speeds: 10Mbps at half and full duplex, 100Mbps at half and full duplex, and 1000Mbps at full duplex. When running at 1000Mbps, it provides a network throughput of 2Gbps in full-duplex mode.

The DGE-530T provides IEEE 802.3x Flow Control Enhancements, which are needed for a network adapter to function with a switch. In full-duplex mode, the MAC implements the PAUSE control function. This means when a switch is connected in full-duplex mode and it senses that its buffer will overflow in the near future, the switch will transmit one standard Ethernet packet that causes the DGE-530T to pause for a period, thus avoiding internal buffer overflow and packet loss.

The NIC enables simple, scalable network migration, providing the benefits of Gigabit Ethernet networking with the familiarity of Ethernet.

Installation

Unpack and Inspect

CAUTION:

Under ordinary circumstances, a DGE-530T card will not be affected by a static charge that may be received through your body during handling of the unit. In special circumstances, the user may carry an extraordinarily high static charge and it is good practice to reduce the charge by touching a ground before handling the adapter card.

Open the shipping carton and carefully remove all items. Ensure that the following items are included:

• One DGE-530T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter Card
• DGE-530T Drivers and Manual on CD
• One Quick Installation Guide

If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement.

Installing the Adapter

1. Shut down the computer, unplug its power cord, and remove the chassis cover.

(Important: Opening the case of your computer may compromise the warranty of your computer. Consult the computer manufacturer before opening the case to ensure that you adhere to warranty guidelines. In some cases, you may need to have the DGE-530T installed by your computer manufacturer.)

1. Insert the contact edge of the DGE-530T card into the connector of any available PCI Bus Master expansion slot. Press the card firmly into the connector such that the card's contacts are fully seated in the connector.
2. Install the bracket screw that secures the card to the computer chassis.
3. Replace the computer's chassis cover.
4. Reconnect the computer's power cord, and switch computer power on. If the BIOS section of your computer's boot program is Plug-and-Play compliant, then at power-up the BIOS will automatically configure any newly installed DGE-530T adapter.

NOTE: Due to a fault in some Plug-and-Play BIOS programs, occasionally a newly installed adapter is assigned an Interrupt Number which has already been assigned to another device. In such a case, the conflict of the Interrupt Number will cause faults in the behavior of both devices. Therefore, the user must run the CMOS Setup utility, and manually assign a non-conflicting Interrupt Number.

Connecting the Network Cable

1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet enables operation over the extensive installed base of legacy Category 5 cabling systems and, by default, the Category 5 cabling systems currently being installed.

It provides optimal full-duplex 1000Mb/s Ethernet service over Category 5e links as defined by ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-A-5. Topology rules for 1000BASE-T are the same as those used for 100BASE-T. Category 5 and 5e link lengths are limited to 100 meters.

Advanced Features

Wake On LAN

This Wake-on-LAN function can wake up the system from the sleeping mode to the fully powered mode over the network immediately and automatically. Once the system is awake, it can be directed to run management utilities. This function increases end-user productivity by avoiding disruptions during working hours.

QoS

The QoS function allows the DGE-530T to transmit and receive tagged frames, such as 802.1p priority tagged frames and 802.1Q VLAN tagged frames. In order for QoS to function on the DGE-530T, it must be connected to a switch that supports and is configured for QoS. These priority tagged frames will let real-time programs optimally utilize the network bandwidth. High priority packets will be processed before low priority packets.

NOTE: To implement QoS on the DGE-530T, it must be connected to a switch or other device that supports and is configured for 802.1p QoS.

Jumbo Frames

Jumbo Frames are Ethernet frames that are larger than 1518 bytes. Jumbo frames may be used to reduce server CPU utilization and improve wire efficiency.

By implementing extra data in fewer packets, jumbo frames can increase throughput and decrease CPU utilization. However, additional latency may be introduced.

End-to-end network hardware must support this capability or these packets will be dropped.

Consult your network administrator or switch manual for more information concerning configuring and understanding Jumbo Frames.

• Supported protocols are limited to IP (TCP, UDP).
• Jumbo frames require compatible switch connections that forward jumbo frames. Contact your switch vendor or manual for additional information.
• There is no benefit to configure jumbo frames if standard size Ethernet frames (64 to 1518 bytes) are used.
• Jumbo frames may be simultaneously used with VLANs.

NOTE: Jumbo frames settings on a switch must be set to 8 bytes or larger than the adapter settings for Windows operating systems, and at least 22 bytes larger for all other operating systems.

The D-Link SNMP Agent Utility

Included on the installation CD is a program for viewing and configuring the DGE-530T, known as the D-Link SNMP Agent Utility. This agent will allow the user to view error packets, set passwords and choose NIC card options on your computer. Make sure that you have already clicked Install Driver on the introduction page and completed Installation Wizard. Then, click Install SNMP Agent Utility (also on the introduction page), and follow the steps of the Installation Wizard.

The D-Link SNMP Agent Utility is supported for Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition, Windows XP or XP 64bit operating system.

SNMP

SNMP is an acronym for Simple Network Management Protocol. This network protocol is used to manage TCP/IP networks by using “Traps” sent from devices compliant with SNMP and collected by one or more servers. Devices that comply with SNMP correspond with management applications by sending alerts and updates, as well as allowing configuration changes.

The DGE-530T's SNMP agent will take event notices from the adapter, translate and then forward them to specified SNMP management stations.

Before installing the SNMP agent, you must install SNMP on your computer. Consult the operating system documentation of your computer for additional information.

To install SNMP on the DGE-530T, simply click Install SNMP Agent on the Introduction Page and complete the steps of the Installation Wizard.

This utility should only be used by experienced network administrators. Additional software or services may need to be previously installed or configured prior to installation of the SNMP protocol.

D-Link Network Control

Installed automatically with the driver is the D-Link Network Control program, which may be opened on the Control Panel of your computer. The configuration and settings information for this program may be found by clicking the Help button of the current screen. This should provide you with any information you should need.

The D-Link Network Control is supported for Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003 and the Windows XP operating system.

NOTE: The D-Link Control Program is not supported under the Windows Vista x86/x64 Operating

IEEE802.1p Priority Tagging

With the growing number of network applications, local area networks (LANs) must deliver data for a wide variety of applications. Email, file transfers, database queries, voice over IP (VoIP), video-conferencing and multimedia must all be delivered to the end-user's. Some of the traffic,

such as video-conferencing, is of a higher priority, with a slight delay of packets resulting in noticeable degeneration of video and audio quality, while other traffic, such as email will not be noticeably affected by tiny delays. The large number of programs run over today's networks serves to impede the ability to deliver time-critical data. Even if bandwidth is not usually a problem on your network, during peak hours bursts in network traffic can result in the delay of time-critical traffic.

IEEE802.1p defines seven levels of prioritization for Ethernet packets. High priority packets will be sent through a network using 802.1p-compliant switches first. Lower priority packets will be transferred whenever bandwidth is available. When properly setup, this ensures that time-critical data arrives on time and is not affected by other traffic.

IEEE802.1Q VLANs

The IEEE802.1Q VLAN can help improve network performance and security by segmenting the network into VLANs. IEEE802.1Q VLANs can limit broadcast and node-to-node (unicast) traffic to a single VLAN. This limits the effects of broadcast storms and provides additional security for your network.

For VLANs to function, the computer in which this NIC is installed must be using Windows 2000, XP, 2003 or later as its operating system.

Configuring the VLAN Settings

To configure the VLAN settings for your DGE-530T, first open the D-Link Network Control utility located in the control panel of your computer, as shown below.

Limited Software Warranty: D-Link warrants that the software portion of the product ("Software") will substantially conform to D-Link's then current functional specifications for the Software, as set forth in the applicable documentation, from the date of original retail purchase of the Software for a period of ninety (90) days ("Software Warranty Period"), provided that the Software is properly installed on approved hardware and operated as contemplated in its documentation. D-Link further warrants that, during the Software Warranty Period, the magnetic media on which D-Link delivers the Software will be free of physical defects. The customer's sole and exclusive remedy and the entire liability of D-Link and its suppliers under this Limited Warranty will be, at D-Link's option, to replace the non-conforming Software (or defective media) with software that substantially conforms to D-Link's functional specifications for the Software or to refund the portion of the actual purchase price paid that is attributable to the Software. Except as otherwise agreed by D-Link in writing, the replacement Software is provided only to the original licensee, and is subject to the terms and conditions of the license granted by D-Link for the Software. Replacement Software will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period and is subject to the same limitations and exclusions. If a material non-conformance is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines in its sole discretion that it is not practical to replace the non-conforming Software, the price paid by the original licensee for the non-conforming Software will be refunded by D-Link; provided that the non-conforming Software (and all copies thereof) is first returned to D-Link. The license granted respecting any Software for which a refund is given automatically terminates.

Non-Applicability of Warranty: The Limited Warranty provided hereunder for Hardware and Software portions of D-Link's products will not be applied to and does not cover any refurbished product and any product purchased through the inventory clearance or liquidation sale or other sales in which D-Link, the sellers, or the liquidators expressly disclaim their warranty obligation pertaining to the product and in that case, the product is being sold "As-ls" without any warranty whatsoever including, without limitation, the Limited Warranty as described herein, notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary.

Herrmann, Fountain Valley, CA 92708. D-Link will not be held responsible for any packages that are lost in transit to D-Link.

D-Link may reject or return any product that is not packaged and shipped in strict compliance with the foregoing requirements, or for which an RMA number is not visible from the outside of the package.
