D-Link DES-2108 User Manual page 29

When using static mode, the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway
can be manually configured. When using DHCP mode, the Switch
will first look for a DHCP server to provide it with an IP address,
network mask, and default gateway before using the default or
previously entered settings. By default the IP setting is static mode.
By entering a System Name and System Location, the device can be
more easily recognized through the SmartConsole Utility and in other
Web-Smart devices on the LAN. The Login Timeout controls the idle
time-out for security purposes, when there is no action in the Web-
based Utility. When the Login Timeout expires, the Web-based Utility
requires a re-login before using the Utility again.
The Group Interval shows the time period (in seconds) that
SmartConsole will check for the switch's presence. Entering 0
disables this function.
