2 Hardware Installation
This chapter provides unpacking and installation information for the D-Link EasySmart Switch.
Step 1: Unpacking
Open the shipping carton and carefully unpack its contents. Please consult the packing list located in the
User Manual to make sure all items are present and undamaged. If any item is missing or damaged, please
contact your local D-Link reseller for replacement.
One D-Link EasySmart Switch
One AC power cord
Four rubber feet
Screws and two mounting brackets
One accessory kit for a ground screw
One Multi-lingual Getting Started Guide
One CD with User Manual and SmartConsole Utility program
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact the local reseller for replacement.
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.
Do not 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.
Figure 5 – Attach the adhesive rubber pads to the bottom
Rack Installation
The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard size 11-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 (please note that these brackets are not designed for palm size
switches).

D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual
Figure 6 – Attach the mounting brackets to the Switch
Then, use the screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the switch in the rack.
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 equipment 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 mechanical 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 Earthling - Reliable earthling 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)."

Step 3 – Plugging in the AC Power Cord
Users may 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 8 –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.
Grounding the Switch
This section describes how to connect the EasySmart Switch to ground. You must complete this procedure
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.
Step 4: Using a screwdriver, tighten the ground screw to secure the ground cable to the switch.
Step 5: 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.
Step 6: Verify if the connections at the ground connector on the switch and the rack are securely attached.

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 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.

Figure 10 –Connected Ethernet cable
Login Web-based Management
In order to login and configure the switch via an Ethernet connection, the PC must have an IP address in the
same subnet 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. There are two ways to launch the Web-based Management, you may either click
the Web Access button at the top of the SmartConsole Utility or open the web browser and enter 10.90.90.90
(the factory-default IP address) in the address bar. Then press <Enter>.
Figure 11 –Enter the IP address 10.90.90.90 in the 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.
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 Monitor List. This will automatically load the web
configuration in your web browser.
When the following logon dialog box appears, enter the password then click OK. The default password is
admin.
Figure 12 – Logon Dialog Box
SmartConsole Utility
The SmartConsole Utility included in the installation CD is a program for discovering D-Link Smart Switches
and EasySmart Switches within the same L2 network segment connected to your PC. This tool is only for
computers running Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Vista x64/86 operating systems. There are two
options for the installation of the SmartConsole Utility; one is through the autorun program on the installation
CD and the other is manual installation.
