Step 2 – Switch Installation
For safe switch installation and operation, it is recommended that you:
- Visually inspect the power cord to see that it is secured fully to the AC power connector.
- Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around the switch.
- Don’t place heavy objects on the switch.
Desktop or Shelf Installation
When installing the switch on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet included
with the device must be attached on the bottom at each corner of the device’s
base. Allow enough ventilation space between the device and the objects around
it.
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.
- Attach the mounting brackets to the switch’s side panels (one on each side) and secure them with the screws provided.
- Use the screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the switch in the rack.
Grounding the Switch
This section describes how to connect the switch to the ground. You must
complete this procedure before powering on your switch.
Required tools and equipment:
- One M4 x 6 mm (metric) pan-head screw (included in the mounting kit).
- Grounding cable (not included in the mouting 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 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 mounting kit).
You can connect the switch to a protective ground by following the steps below:
- Verify if the system power is off.
- Place the terminal lug ring of the grounding cable on top of the ground-screw opening, insert the grounding screw into it and tighten the screw with a screwdriver.
- Attach the terminal lug ring at the other end of the grounding cable to an appropriate grounding stud or bolt on rack where the switch is installed.
- Verify if the connections at the ground connector on the switch and the rack are securely attached.
**Installing Power Cord Retainer**
Tp prevent accidental removal of the AC power cord, it is recommended to
install the power cord retainer together with the power cord.
- With the rough side facing down, insert the tie wrap into the hole below the power socket.
- Plug the AC power cord into the power socket of the switch.
- Slide the retainer through the tie wrap until theend of the cord.
- Circle the tie of the retainer around the power cord and into the locker of the retainer.
- Fasten the tie of the retainer until the power cord is secured.
- Not included in the package contents.
Step 3 – Plugging in the AC
Power Cord
You can connect the AC power cord into the rear of the switch and to an
electrical outlet (preferably one that is grounded and surge protected).
Power Failure
As a precaution, the switch should be unplugged in case of power failure. When
power is resumed, plug the switch back in.
Management Options
The DGS-1100-10MPP switch can be managed through the Web UI or the D-Link
Network Assistant (DNA) utility.
If you want to manage only one D-Link 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 UI. The PC should have an IP address in the
same range as the switch.
However, if you want to manage multiple D-Link switches, the DNA utility is
the better option. Using the DNA utility, you don’t need to change the IP
address of your PC and it is easy to start the initial setting of multiple
switches. Please refer to the following detailed installation instructions for
the Web-based management and DNA.
-
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 Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome or Safari.
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
-
Connect the Ethernet cable to any of the ports in front panel of the switch and to the Ethernet port on the PC.
-
In order to log in the Web UI, 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 and 255, z is a number between 1 and 254) and a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0.
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. -
Open your Web browser and enter http://10.90.90.90 in the address box.
Note: The Web configuration can also be accessed through the DNA. You can click the IP hyper link in the device list in the DNA to open the Web UI of the devices. -
When the logon box appears, enter “admin” for the password. Press OK to enter the main configuration window.
D-Link Network Assistant
The D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) is a program for discovering switches with
the same L2 network segment connected to your PC. You can install DNA through
the autorun program or manually.
Option 1: Follow these steps to install DNA via the autorun program on the
installation CD.
- Insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive. The autorun program will pop up automatically.
- Click on the “Install DNA (D-Link Network Assistant)” button and an installation wizard will guide you through the process.
- After successful installing you can find the DNA under “Start > Programs > D-Link > DNA”.
Option 2: Follow these steps to install DNA manually.
- Insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive.
- From the Start menu on the Windows desktop choose Computer.
- Double click on your CD-ROM drive to start the autorun menu, or right click on the drive to open the folder. Select DNA (D-Link Network Assistant) and double click on the setup.exe file.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to install the utility.
- Upon completion, go to “Start > Programs > D-Link > DNA” and open DNA.
Connect the switch to the same L2 network segment of your PC and use DNA to discover the Smart switches. For detailed information of DNA, please refer the user manual.
