Single Ip Settings - D-Link DGS-3000 Series Reference Manual

When a CaS becomes a MS, it automatically becomes a member of the first SNMP community (includes read/write
and read only) to which the CS belongs. However, if a MS has its own IP address, it can belong to SNMP
communities to which other switches in the group, including the CS, do not belong.
Upgrade to v1.61
To better improve SIM management, the DGS-3000 Series switches have been upgraded to version 1.61 in this
release. Many improvements have been made, including:
a. 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 become the member of another group,
or if it has been configured to be a Commander Switch, the
rediscovery process cannot occur.
b. The topology map now includes new features for connections that 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.
c. 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 – This switch now supports downloading and uploading of configuration files both to
(for configuration restoration) and from (for configuration backup) MS's, using a TFTP server.
•
Log – The Switch now supports uploading MS log files to a TFTP server.
d. The user may zoom in and zoom out when utilizing the topology window to get a better, more defined view of
the configurations.
