the IP address of your PC and it is easy to start the initial setting of multiple EasySmart Switches. Please refer to the following detailed installation instructions for the Web-Based Management and SmartConsole Utility. Web-based Management Interface (1) 3/4 inch minimum for wooden wall. (2) 3 inch minimum for concrete wall. Figure 4. Mounting a desktop switch to a Wall After a successful physical installation, you can configure the switch, monitor the LED panel, and display statistics graphically using a web browser, such as Netscape Navigator (version 6.2 and higher) or Microsoft® Internet Explorer (version 5.0 and higher). 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 Step 3 - Plugging in the AC Power Cord You can 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). Step 1 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 5. Plugging the switch into an outlet Figure 6. Connected Ethernet cable 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 D-Link EasySmart Switch can be managed through a web browser or through any PC using the SmartConsole Utility. If you want to manage only one D-Link EasySmart 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-Based Management and the PC should have an IP address in the same range as the switch. However, if you want to manage multiple D-Link EasySmart Switches, the SmartConsole Utility is the better option. Using the SmartConsole Utility, you don't need to change Step 2 In order to login and configure the switch via an Ethernet connection, 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 ~ 254 and z is a number between 1 ~254), and a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0. Open your web browser and enter http://10.90.90.90 (the factory-default IP address) in the address box. Then press . Figure 7. Enter the IP address 10.90.90.90 in the web browser 3

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 D-Link
EasySmart Switch can be managed through
a web browser
or through any PC using the
SmartConsole
Utility
.
If you want to manage only one D-Link
EasySmart 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-Based Management
and the PC should have an IP address in the same
range as the switch.
However, if you want to manage multiple D-Link
EasySmart
Switches, the SmartConsole Utility is the better option.
Using the SmartConsole Utility, you don’t need to change
the IP address of your PC and it is easy to start the initial
setting of multiple EasySmart Switches.
Please refer to the following detailed installation instructions
for the Web-Based Management and SmartConsole Utility.
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 Netscape
Navigator (version 6.2 and higher) or Microsoft
®
Internet
Explorer (version 5.0 and higher).
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
Step 1
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 6. Connected Ethernet cable
Step 2
In order to login and configure the switch via an Ethernet
connection, 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 ~ 254 and z is
a number between 1 ~254), and a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0.
Open your web browser and enter
(the factory-default IP address) in the address box. Then
press <Enter>.
