Allow enough ventilation space between the device and the objects around it. Figure 1. Attaching the rubber feet Rack Installation The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard size 19- inch rack, which can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipment. To install, attach the mounting brackets to the switch’s side panels (one on each side) and secure them with the screws provided. Figure 2. Attaching the mounting brackets Then, use the screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the switch in the rack. Figure 3. Installing the switch in a standard-sized equipment rack

Step 3 – Plugging in the AC Power Cord You can now connect the AC power cord into the rear of the switch and to an electrical outlet (preferably one that is grounded and surge protected). Figure 4. Plugging the switch into an outlet Power Failure As a precaution, the switch should be unplugged in case of power failure. When power is resumed, plug the switch back in.3 Management Options The D-Link Web Smart Switch can be managed in-band by using Telnet. The user may also choose the Web- based Management, accessible through a web browser or through any PC using the SmartConsole Utility. If you want to manage only one D-Link Web Smart Switch, the Web-Based Management is the better option. Each switch must be assigned its own IP Address, which is used for communication with Web-Based Management or an SNMP network manager and the PC should have an IP address in the same range as the switch. However, if you want to manage multiple D-Link Web Smart Switches, the SmartConsole Utility is the better option. Using the SmartConsole Utility, you don’t need to change the IP address of your PC and it is easy to start the initial setting of multiple Smart Switches. Please refer to the following detailed installation instructions for the Web-Based Management, SmartConsole Utility, Telnet Management and SNMP- Based Management. Web-based Management Interface After a successful physical installation, you can configure the switch, monitor the LED panel, and display statistics graphically using a web browser, such as Netscape Navigator (version 6.2 and higher) or Microsoft

Internet Explorer (version 5.0 and higher). You need the following equipment to begin the web configuration of your device: A PC with a RJ-45 Ethernet connection A standard Ethernet cable Step 1 Connect the Ethernet cable to any of the ports on the front panel of the switch and to the Ethernet port on the PC. Figure 6. Connected Ethernet cable Step 2 In order to login and configure the switch via an Ethernet connection, the PC must have an IP address in the same range as the 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 255.0.0.0. Open your web browser and enter http://10.90.90.90 (the factory-default IP address) in the address box. Then press <Enter>.

Figure 7. Enter the IP address 10.90.90.90 in the web browser The web configuration can also be accessed through the SmartConsole Utility. Open the SmartConsole Utility and double-click the switch as it appears in the Device List. This will automatically load the web configuration in your web browser. NOTE: The switch's factory default IP address is 10.90.90.90 with a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 and a default gateway of 0.0.0.0 Step 3 When the following logon box appears, enter “admin” for the password. Press OK to enter the main configuration window.

Figure 8. User authentication window Step 4 Before entering the Web-based Management, the Smart Wizard will guide you to quickly configure some functions, such as Password Settings, SNMP Settings, and System Settings. If you don’t plan to change4 anything, click Exit to exit the Wizard and enter the Web- based Management. For a detailed look at the Smart Wizard’s functions, please refer to the Smart Wizard introduction in the user manual.
