The EasySmart DGS-1100-24V2 is a configurable switch with 24 10/100/1000Base-T ports designed for small and medium business networks. Management, diagnostics, troubleshooting, and energy-saving technology features enable the DGS-1100-24V2 to meet a variety of applications.
D-Link Green Energy Saving Technology Switch DGS-1100-24V2 complies with the standard IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet and consumes less power at a low traffic volume. The use of EEE-compliant devices allows small and medium-sized businesses to save money by reducing operating costs, including those associated with the purchase of cooling equipment. The DGS-1100-24V2 also supports D-Link Green technology, which automatically reduces power consumption. The switch detects the connection status of each port and automatically shuts down inactive ports.
Easy Management The DGS-1100-24V2 switches can be managed with the D-Link Network Assistant utility as well as via the Web interface. The utility allows you to detect D-Link Smart Series switches belonging to the same L2 network segment, which simplifies initial installation of the switch. Advanced configuration and basic configuration of discovered devices, such as password changes and software upgrades, are available to the administrator. A user-friendly Web interface gives network administrators the ability to manage the switch at the port level. The interface is accessible via a Web-browser and allows you to control the switch from any computer connected to the network.
Surveillance VLAN and bandwidth management Switch DGS-1100-24V2 supports Surveillance VLAN technology for deploying video surveillance systems. This feature places video traffic on a separate VLAN where it is assigned the highest priority. Support for Surveillance VLANs ensures quality video traffic delivery and protection, while reducing the cost associated with purchasing additional hardware. Bandwidth management features allow network administrators to reserve bandwidth for applications that require the highest priority or high bandwidth.
Advanced feature set The DGS-1100-24V2 switch supports advanced security features such as Static MAC, network storm protection, and IGMP Snooping. Static MAC function allows you to create a "white" list of MAC-addresses, allowing access only to authorized devices. The Network Storm Protection feature is required to limit broadcast, multicast or unknown unicast traffic to a specified threshold. The switch blocks or discards packets that fall under this restriction, as large amounts of such traffic can cause network congestion. The IGMP Snooping feature can reduce the amount of multicast traffic and increase network performance.
Easy troubleshooting The DGS-1100-24V2 features cable diagnostics and Loopback Detection. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops and automatically shuts down the port where a loop is detected. The Cable Diagnostics feature is used to determine the twisted-pair condition and the type of cable fault.
