DGS-1210 Series Smart Switches
Energy Saving
DGS-1210 switches are capable of conserving power without sacri cing
operational performance or functionality by using D-Link Green 3.0 technology.
Using the Energy Effi cient Ethernet standard, the network will automatically
decrease the power usage when traffi c is low with no setup required. For
environments not fully supporting the standard, DGS-1210 switches off er
advanced power-saving settings including port shutoff and standby, LED shutoff ,
and system hibernation based on custom scheduling pro les. The pro les
can also be applied to the PoE switch so that there is no unnecessary power
consumption during off hours. The DGS-1210 Series switches can also detect
the length of connected cables to automatically reduce power usage on shorter
cable connections.
Auto Surveillance VLAN and Voice VLAN
The process of setting up IP surveillance and VoIP on a network is automated
with the D-Link Smart Switches. Auto Surveillance VLAN (ASV) consolidates data
and surveillance video transmission through the network, sparing businesses the
expense of maintaining dedicated facilities. ASV also protects the quality of real-
time video by grouping IP surveillance devices on a single high priority VLAN. This
ensures that surveillance video streams will not be aff ected when ordinary data
traffi c is at their highest levels. Similarly, the Auto Voice VLAN guarantees clear
audio quality and effi cient transmission for all voice communication.
Exclusive Layer 2 Features
Equipped with a complete lineup of L2 features, the DGS-1210 Series switches
include IGMP Snooping, Port Mirroring, Spanning Tree, and Link Aggregation
Control Protocol (LACP). The IEEE 802.3x Flow Control function allows servers
to directly connect to the switch for fast, reliable data transfer. At 2000 Mbps
Full Duplex, the Gigabit ports provide high-speed data pipes to servers with
minimum data transfer loss. Network maintenance features include Loopback
Detection and Cable Diagnostics. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops
created by a speci c port and automatically shut down the aff ected port. The
Cable Diagnostic feature is designed primarily for administrators and customer
service representatives, and can rapidly discover the type of error and determine
the cable quality.
Secure your Network
D-Link’s innovative Safeguard Engine protects the switches against traffi c
 ooding caused by virus attacks. The switches also support 802.1X port-based
authentication, allowing the network clients to be authenticated through external
RADIUS servers. In addition, the Access Control List (ACL) feature enhances
network security and protects the network by screening traffi c from illegal MAC
or IP addresses. ARP Spoo ng Prevention prevents malicious intruders from
sending massive fake ARP messages through a manipulated source. This protects
important data from being stolen by Man-in-the-Middle attacks, and prevents
wasting CPU cycles on these packets. For added security, the DHCP Server
Screening feature blocks rogue DHCP server packets from user ports to prevent
unauthorized IP assignment.
