DGS-1210 Series Gigabit Smart Managed Switches
Energy Saving
DGS-1210 Series switches are capable of conserving power without sacricing
operational performance or functionality. Using the Energy Ecient Ethernet
standard, the network will automatically decrease the power usage when
trac is low with no setup required. For environments not fully supporting
the standard, DGS-1210 Series oer advanced power-saving settings
including port shuto and standby, LED shuto, 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 o
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
and cannot be easier. 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
aected when ordinary data trac is at their highest levels. Similarly, the
Auto Voice VLAN guarantees clear audio quality and ecient transmission
for all voice communication. Surveillance Mode also includes its own Web UI,
making surveillance features easily accessible and simplifying management of your
surveillance network.
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 a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-Links innovative Safeguard Engine protects the switches against tra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
tra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 unauthorised IP assignment.
