Single Ip Settings - D-Link xStack DGS-3200-10 User Manual

xStack
When a CaS becomes a MS, it autom atically becomes a m ember of t he first SNMP community (including read/write and rea d
only) to which th e CS b elongs. However, if a MS h as its own IP ad dress, it can belong to SNMP co mmunities to wh ich other
switches in the group, including the CS, do not belong.
Upgrade to v1.61
To bet ter i mprove SIM management, t he D GS-3200 Se ries swi tches have been upgraded t o ve rsion 1.61 in t his release. M any
improvements have been made, including:
4. The Commander Switch (CS) now has the capability to automatically rediscover member switches that have left the SIM
group, either through a reboot or web malfunction. This feature is accomplished through the use of Discover packets and
Maintenance packets that previously set SIM members will emit after a reboot. Once a MS has had its MAC address and
password saved to the CS's database, if a reboot occurs in the MS, the CS will keep this MS information in its database
and when a MS has been rediscovered, it will add the MS back into the SIM tree automatically. No configuration will be
necessary to rediscover these switches.
There are some instances where pre-saved MS switches cannot be rediscovered. For example, if the Switch is still powered down,
if it has bec ome the member of another group, or if it has been configured to be a Commander Switch, the rediscovery process
cannot occur.
2. T he t opology m ap no w i ncludes ne w feat ures f or connections t hat are a
member of a port trunking group. It will display the speed and number of Ethernet
connections creating this port trunk group, as shown in the adjacent picture.
5. This version will support switch upload and downloads for firmware, configuration files and log files, as follows:
Firmware – The switch now supports MS firmware downloads from a TFTP server.

 Configuration Files – Thi s switch no w sup ports d ownloading and upl oading of con figuration fi les both to (f or
