DGS-1210 Series
Gigabit Smart Managed Switches
Advanced Features
The DGS-1210 Series comes equipped with a complete lineup of L2
features, including IGMP snooping, port mirroring, Spanning Tree
Protocol (STP), 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 transfers.
The DGS-1210 Series also supports advanced features such as static
routing, With static routing, IP routes are manually entered into a
routing table, which allows for communication between dierent
user groups in dierent VLAN segments in a network. The switch can
directly handle inter VLAN routing using multiple interfaces, making
the network run faster and more eciently. Because the switches can
manage internal routing, the network router can be assigned to handle
external trac routing only.
Network maintenance features include loopback detection and
cable diagnostics. Loopback detection signicantly speeds up
troubleshooting by automatically detecting and shutting down
switching loops. The cable diagnostics feature, designed primarily for
administrators and customer service representatives, determines the
cable quality and quickly discovers errors.
Automatic Conguration
The DGS-1210 Series supports Auto Voice VLAN and Surveillance Mode,
which allow voice and video trac to be automatically identied and
handled dierently to regular network trac. Auto Voice VLAN detects
Voice over IP (VoIP) trac and automatically segments it from the rest
of the network, helping to increase security and allow Quality of Service
(QoS) to be applied.
Surveillance Mode detects compatible ONVIF cameras and places
them in a surveillance VLAN, allowing a single switch to be used for
voice, video, and data, removing the need for dedicated hardware and
reducing maintenance costs. Surveillance Mode also includes its own
Web UI, making surveillance features easily accessible and simplifying
management of your surveillance network.
Network Security Features
D-Link’s innovative Safeguard Engine helps protect the switches against
trac ooding caused by malicious attacks. The DGS-1210 Series
supports 802.1X port-based authentication, allowing the network to
be authenticated through external RADIUS servers. The Access Control
List (ACL) feature helps enhance network security and helps to protect
the internal IT network. The DGS-1210 Series also features Address
Resolution Protocol (ARP) spoong prevention, which helps provide
protection from attacks on the network that could allow an intruder
to sni data frames, modify trac, or bring trac to a halt altogether
by sending fake ARP messages. To help prevent ARP spoong attacks,
the switch uses packet control ACLs to help block invalid packets
that contain fake ARP messages. For added security, the DHCP server
screening feature lters DHCP replies on unauthorized ports to help
prevent them from being assigned an IP address.
Versatile Management
The DGS-1210 Series comes with the D-Link Network Assistant (DNA)
utility that enables administrators to remotely control their network
down to the port level. The D-Link Network Assistant utility furthermore
allows customers to easily discover multiple D-Link Smart Managed
Switches within the same L2 network segment and display them on-
screen for instant access. With this utility, users do not need to change
the IP address of their PC. This allows for simultaneous conguration
and basic setup of all discovered devices, including password changes
and rmware upgrades.
The DGS-1210 Series also supports D-View 7.0 and Command Line
Interface (CLI) through Telnet. D-View 7.0 is a network management
system that allows for the central management of critical network
characteristics such as availability, reliability, resilience, and security.
Lifetime Warranty and NBD Replacement
D-Link oers a Lifetime Warranty and Next Business Day (NBD) hardware
replacement on the DGS-1210 Series Gigabit Smart Managed Switches
to further its commitment to product quality and long-term customer
condence.
